Round salon stools

Salon stools with a round or flat seat – classic and versatile professional stools

Salon stools with a round or flat seat are among the most popular choices in hair salons and beauty clinics. Their simple, classic design makes them a flexible option that fits any salon style. These stools are made to give the hairdresser plenty of freedom of movement and comfort, while still being easy to fit into the salon’s layout.

What is a salon stool with a round or flat seat?

A salon stool with a round or flat seat is defined by a simple seat surface without a saddle shape or moulded support. This design makes the stool ideal for hairdressers who prefer a more neutral working posture and want a stool that gives maximum freedom of movement. Salon stools with a flat seat often have a clean, pared-back look, which makes them easy to match with the rest of the salon’s furniture, such as trolleys or mirrors.

Advantages of salon stools with a flat seat

Salon stools with a round or flat seat have several advantages that make them a popular choice among hairdressers:

• Simplicity: Their straightforward design makes them easy to use and adapt to different working needs.
• Freedom of movement: The flat seat lets the hairdresser change working position freely, without restrictions.
• Neutral ergonomics: Although they do not offer the same ergonomic benefits as saddle stools, many hairdressers prefer this classic option.
• Durability: They are often made from materials that are easy to clean and can stand up to daily use.

Downsides and things to consider

Even though salon stools with a flat seat have many advantages, there are also a few things worth considering before you decide:

• Less ergonomic support: Stools with a flat seat do not provide the same back and pelvic support as saddle stools.
• Personal choice: As with any stool, comfort depends on personal preference.

Salon stools vs. saddle stools

Some hairdressers choose saddle stools for their ergonomic benefits, while others prefer salon stools with a flat seat for their simplicity and classic design. In the end, it comes down to working style and comfort. If you are unsure, you can try both types of stools in our showroom.

What should you look for when choosing a salon stool?

When choosing a salon stool, there are several things you should consider to make sure you get the best option for your salon:

• Materials: Choose a stool with hard-wearing materials that can stand up to hair products and daily use.
• Adjustability: The stool should have a gas lift or hydraulic function, so you can easily adjust the height.
• Wheels and mobility: Look for hairdresser wheels that roll smoothly and do not catch hair.
