The Perfect Salon Experience: How to Find the Right Luxury Backwash for Your Salon

Published 03rd Sep 2024 by Charlotte Grant-West

The perfect backwash really can make all the difference, discover Takara Belmont’s RS Series and introduce luxury to every shampoo service. 

As the first equipment that most clients encounter in the salon, the backwash determines levels of comfort and satisfaction, and sets the tone for what’s to follow. Serving as a prelude to cutting and styling, the backwash needs to be perfect. But as salons come in all shapes and sizes, how do you choose equipment that ensures every service is memorable?

Takara Belmont brings over a century of innovation to create the ultimate backwash experience, believing that luxury, comfort and well-being are fundamental to every salon. Katie Fielder, Takara Belmont’s National Sales Manager, comments: “The RS Series features a range of designs with a common mission in mind - to exceed the expectations of clients and backwash technicians and to suit any salon.”

Feature Driven Luxury

Across the RS Series of backwashes, consistent levels of comfort and advanced ergonomics are assured. Each unit reflects Takara Belmont’s eye for timeless design, enduring quality and superior functionality.

Katie comments: “The RS Series offers a range of unit designs with premium upholsteries and colours to complement your interior colour scheme. A deep, wide and tilting ceramic basin accommodates clients of all statures, while our signature gel-filled neck cushion maximises comfort and alleviates neck strain. Thermostatic control regulates water temperature and flow, and our ingenious hair trap system prevents blockages to eliminate service disruption.”

Choosing the Perfect RS Backwash Unit

With five units in the RS Series, choosing one to work within your salon without compromising quality couldn’t be easier. “For space limited salons, the RS Prime is an ideal choice,” says Katie. “The RS Adria II and RS Axis feature an integrated footrest to add a little more comfort, while RS Primo’s extending padded leg-rest can be folded away, so space is maximised when the unit is not in use. For salons that have more space to work with, RS Elite is a couch-style backwash which o ers comfort during longer treatments.”

With additional features across the range, such as free-swivelling intelligent shower heads, water-saving or dual flow shower heads with champagne flow, pedestal choices and optional protective covers, the RS Series introduces high-end luxury, regardless of salon size or layout.
