Leading barbers know that selecting the right chair isn’t only about looks; it’s also about the client experience. Takara Belmont’s 225 sets the standard for exceptional barber chairs, blending comfort, functionality, and timeless design like no other chair can.

So, what should barbers look for in a chair, and why does the 225 check every box?

Comfort That Elevates Every Cut

Long hours behind the chair demand equipment that offers unwavering support for both barbers and clients. The 225 is designed with superior comfort in mind, featuring supportive cushioning and an ergonomic recline that ensures clients remain at ease throughout their service. Its sturdy build provides the stability barbers need for precision work, while the versatile headrest enhances both comfort and functionality.

“The adjustable headrest can also sit underneath the client’s neck, giving them that extra tilt-up when you are doing any of the hairline and edge-up on the front, making it super comfortable,” says Sofie “StayGold” Pok in an Instagram video. Sofie is a barber educator, content creator, and co-creator of STMNT Grooming Goods.

By enhancing client comfort and reducing barber strain, the 225 boosts both loyalty and efficiency. It’s built to deliver an outstanding experience for everyone involved. This transforms every appointment into a stress-free service with features like:

• Ergonomically designed seat that supports proper posture with S-shaped spring and “waving belt” mechanism.
• Comfortably padded armrests for ultimate relaxation and a supportive yet indulgent feel.
• Adjustable and removable headrest with eight height settings that can be easily repositioned when reclining or detached for easy access.

Functionality Redefined with Effortless Efficiency

In a bustling barbershop, efficiency isn’t optional—it’s essential. The perfect chair should enhance the barber's craft, not hinder it. The 225 embodies this principle, delivering a seamless performance that streamlines every appointment.

As Ryan Damien, co-owner of Unison Men's Salon, highlights in an Instagram video with BarberEVO, the 225 allows him to "get close to the client while still allowing them enough room for comfort." This perfect balance of accessibility and comfort makes the 225 an essential tool for professionals who demand the highest level of performance. Its versatility is unmatched, easily repositioning to both client and service needs, ensuring support and efficiency with features like:

• Smooth reclining mechanism that effortlessly adjusts from 30 to 75 degrees, providing versatile support for a wide range of services.
• Towel holder and clipper hook to keep tools within reach for easy, uninterrupted workflow.
• Optional heelrest that elevates a client's feet, keeping them relaxed and reducing strain during longer services.

Timeless Aesthetic That Defines Your Shop’s Style

Top-tier barbers understand that every detail counts—and the right chair can transform the entire atmosphere of a shop. The 225 seamlessly combines style and functionality with a sleek, sophisticated design that stands the test of time.

When selecting a chair to define their space, barbers should prioritize timeless style that endures. The 225 stands out, delivering both style and substance with:

• Polished cast iron body for a sleek and professional look to enhance any shop’s atmosphere.
• Refined aesthetic that combines vintage charm with lasting appeal for a classic yet modern touch.
• Stylish vertical cushion lines that create a structured, eye-catching design and contribute to the chair’s striking appearance.

Choosing the right barber chair is a critical decision that impacts both the quality of service and the overall ambiance of any barbershop. The 225 stands in a league of its own, providing exceptional support, unmatched efficiency, and a design that redefines style. Peter Chen of 12 Pell, a barbershop and lifestyle store, captures the chair's enduring value, saying, "Each Belmont 225 carries a legacy—a symbol of timeless excellence." He further emphasizes its significance, calling it "a true piece of history," highlighting the lasting impact this chair has on the industry.

Selecting the 225 is more than just choosing a chair—it's establishing a legacy of greatness that clients will appreciate for years to come.
