Bellestore Academy · Head Spa
A Head Spa station needs to accommodate water, electricity, customer comfort, and a smooth workflow. Here is a practical plan for choosing between fixed and portable equipment, measuring the room, and organizing the treatment area before you place your order.

Quick Answer
Start with the room and installation – not with the appearance of the furniture. Choose a fixed Head Spa bed when you can arrange water and drainage in a permanent location. Choose a portable solution with its own water tank when you want to use an existing treatment bed or lack permanent connections. Measure the product's dimensions, the workspace around it, and the path through doors before purchasing. Have authorized installers assess water, drainage, and electricity where fixed installation is required.
Fixed or portable Head Spa equipment?
The two solutions solve the same fundamental problem in different ways. The comparison below is based on Bellestore's current product information; always check the specifications for the model you actually choose.
| Planning question | Fixed bed with sink | Portable sink |
|---|---|---|
| Water and drainage | Connects to existing water and drainage. | Filled with water and emptied via a separate drainage solution. |
| Treatment furniture | The sink is integrated into a complete treatment bed. | Placed by a suitable existing treatment bed. |
| Placement | Best suited for a permanent, installation-prepared area. | Offers greater freedom when the room lacks fixed connections. |
| To check | Piping, drainage, floor, electricity, service position, and access. | Filling, safe drainage, electricity, tank volume, and storage. |
Five decisions to make before ordering
1. Fixed or flexible location
Decide whether the Head Spa will have its own room, a permanent zone, or share space with other treatments. This determines whether an integrated bed or a portable solution is more practical.
2. Water flow
Map out how clean water reaches the treatment and how used water is disposed of. For a portable solution, both filling and draining need to work without heavy or unsafe steps.
3. Electricity and moisture
Check the product's voltage, cord placement, and where splashing may occur. Outlets, installation, and equipment must be suitable for the actual environment.
4. Dimensions and access
Don't just measure the floor space. Check door width, corridors, turning radius, elevators, ceiling height, and space to work and clean around the equipment.
5. Position of customer and stylist
Test height, neck support, reach, and sitting position. You should be able to reach the scalp, water controls, and accessories without stretching or twisting your body throughout the entire treatment.
Step-by-step: design the treatment area
- Mark the product's outer dimensions. Bellestore's integrated bed model is listed at 205 × 70 × 70 cm. The portable sink is listed as 64 × 53 cm and 69 cm in height, or 103 cm with the hood.
- Add workspace. Draw in space for the chair, trolley, stylist's movements, and access for cleaning and service. The product's dimensions are just the starting point.
- Draw in water and drainage. For a fixed solution, mark connection points for water and drainage. For a portable solution, plan where filling and draining will take place.
- Place electricity and cables. Cables should not be in walkways or where water can collect. Ask a registered electrical installation company to assess any changes to the permanent electrical system.
- Test the path in. Compare packaging and product dimensions with doors, corners, elevators, and stairs before delivery.
- Simulate the entire treatment. Go through reception, placement, work, cleaning, and resetting. Move the equipment on the drawing until the flow feels logical.
Plan a workflow that holds up between customers
Before treatment
Prepare without mixing clean and used items
Gather clean textiles, tools, and products on a prepared surface. Place waste and used materials separately so that you don't have to leave the customer in the middle of a work step.
During treatment
Keep water, electricity, and walkways under control
Check hoses, cords, and controls before the customer lies down. Have towels and materials to handle spills nearby, but without blocking the equipment's ventilation or controls.
After treatment
Empty, clean, and reset in the same order
Follow the product's manual for emptying and cleaning. At the same time, check hoses, surfaces, cords, and connections so that the next treatment starts with a fully restored station.

Eight things to have ready before delivery
Common questions about Head Spa equipment
Does a Head Spa bed need water and drainage?
A fixed integrated bed may require connection to existing water and drainage. A portable sink may instead have its own water tank and separate drainage. Always check the exact installation instructions for the product.
Can I use my regular treatment bed?
It may work with a portable sink if the bed's height, head end, and construction provide support for the customer and a sustainable working posture for the stylist. Test the placement and check compatibility before purchasing.
How much space does Head Spa equipment need?
Start with the product's outer dimensions and add space for the stylist, chair, trolley, hoses, cables, cleaning, and service. Also check doors, corridors, elevators, and turning radius for delivery.
Is a portable Head Spa sink completely installation-free?
It can avoid fixed water and drainage, but you still need to plan for electricity, filling, emptying, spill management, and safe placement. Therefore, "portable" does not mean the premises are exempt from planning requirements.
What should I ask the property owner?
Ask what is permitted regarding water, sewage, ventilation, electricity, and changes to the premises. Request written approval before ordering permanent installations or building modifications.
Do I need training to offer Head Spa?
You need to be able to perform the treatment, use the equipment, and follow relevant hygiene and safety procedures. Training can provide a structured treatment flow, but you are also responsible for local regulations, insurance, and the salon's own routines.
