-
Put a towel around the base of the neck. The collar of the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape needs to be against the neck and above the towel.
Tilt the customer's head back slightly. This helps the collar to fit against the neck and will help direct the water onto the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape.
Cup one hand along the front hair line to guide water away from the face and toward the back of head and onto the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape.
Adjust the water pressure so you can rinse the hair while still being able to control the flow of water. Remember, the hose is no longer at the sink level and you may need to use less water pressure to easily control the flow of water.
Put a water-resistant hair cutting/shampoo cape on the person getting their hair washed.
-
Either model works well in most settings.
We do recommend using the "Classic" model with Buckles and Velcro® when using in special needs applications.
-
Since the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape is made of soft nylon fabric with adjustable sides, it can be adjusted to fit most sinks.
Too Wide - If the bottom and sides do not fit in the sink, move the sides together until they do. The back of the Comfort Cape® may need to be shaped like an accordion to allow the water to flow down and into the sink.
Too Long - If the Comfort Cape® is pushing the collar up the person's neck, move the chair away from the sink until the bottom of the Comfort Cape® sits in the sink and the collar is resting against the neck.
Too Short - If the bottom of the Comfort Cape® is not below the top of the sink, move the chair closer to the sink and make sure the person is sitting up.
-
The flexible material and water bumper guides enables the Comfort Cape shampoo sink drape to be shaped around a high back chair or wheelchair headrest. Shape the area between the sides to make a valley to act like a funnel to allow the water to flow into the sink. The chair may need to be moved at an angle for the water to drain into the sink.
-
The Velcro® strips are purposely sewn to the collar to that they face each other. This allows for easy on and off.
See the brief video in Step 1 of the Easy 1-2-3 instructions showing the securing of the Velcro® strips.
-
Our shampoo sink drape can easily be cleaned by rinsing with water. Be sure to let it fully air dry by using a hanger to avoid odors and mildew.
Do NOT put it in a machine washer or dryer. Do NOT iron.
-
Due to the high quality materials, the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape can last for years and years of daily use.
-
Yes. We recommended wetting the shampoo drape before coloring your customer's hair. This may reduce discoloration of the Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape.
-
Yes, the shampoo sink drape is hands free for both the customer and the stylists.

Stylists - Home Visits
Stylists who travel to a client's home often opt out of washing hair since they do not have the convenience of a salon shampoo bowl. Many stylists resort to dry bar styling which can limit the services you provide to your clients reducing your profits.
The Comfort Cape® shampoo sink drape is the ideal shampoo aid, because it is lightweight and portable. Your clients will have a more luxurious experience in the comfort of their home.
Stylists - Special Events
Stylists working on weddings and other special events struggle to wash a client’s hair due to the difficulty of bringing heavy and cumbersome portable wash basins.
