The short answer<\/p>\n

Een mobiele headspa kost \u20ac1.895 excl. BTW en werkt zonder wateraansluiting \u2014 ideaal voor salons zonder aparte spoelruimte. Een vaste headspabank start vanaf \u20ac1.595 excl. BTW, vraagt een directe wateraansluiting, maar biedt een rustigere workflow en drie jaar garantie. Welke je kiest hangt af van je ruimte, je klantenstroom en hoeveel behandelingen je per dag plant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The question I get asked most often by hairdressers and beauticians looking to start a head spa is: should I opt for a mobile unit or a fixed bed? The honest answer is that it depends on three things: your salon, your space, and the way you work.<\/p>\n

In this article, I compare both options based on real-world use cases\u2014with the correct prices, dimensions, and practical pros and cons. No sales pitch, but an honest explanation.<\/p>\n

What is the fundamental difference?<\/h2>\n

The big difference isn't in the treatment itself, but in the way the water works.<\/p>\n

A large headboard<\/strong> Connect it to your salon's water supply, just like a regular sink. Water flows in through an inlet, and rinse water disappears through a drain. You never have to refill or empty a tank. This smooths out the workflow when performing multiple treatments back-to-back.<\/p>\n

A Mobile head spa<\/strong> works completely autonomously. There is a built-in water reservoir of 50 to 60 liters that you fill beforehand. With the Pro and Deluxe models, there is also a wastewater tank so you don't have to drain the used water between treatments. You only need a power outlet.<\/p>\n

In practice, this means the following: a mobile unit can be placed anywhere there is power. A fixed unit is placed in a fixed location where water and drainage pipes run.<\/p>\n

For which type of salon is a mobile head spa a better choice?<\/h2>\n

A mobile unit is best suited if your salon doesn't have a separate washing area, or if you don't want to invest in renovations. A hairdresser working in a small space, a beautician who makes house calls, or a therapist who treats clients at home\u2014they almost always opt for mobile.<\/p>\n
