A smarter hairstylist tool belt
Shopping for a hairstylist tool belt? Then consider wearing your tools on your chest instead of your hips. The Barber Rig keeps shears, combs, brushes and clippers right where your hands already work.
Why stylists look past the classic hairstylist tool belt
A hairstylist tool belt sits low, so you reach down and away from the hair every time. Also, belts can twist as you move, and tools may bang against the chair.
A chest rig solves both problems. Because it sits high, your tools stay near your hands while you section, cut and blend. Plus, the plate stays flat, so nothing swings around.
The Barber Rig® holds four tools in tall pockets, which suits shears, combs, brushes and razors. It also takes two clippers and four guards for clipper work. So one rig covers scissor cuts and fades alike.
Why stylists switch from a hairstylist tool belt
Here is what a chest rig does better than a belt or holster.
Higher reach
Your tools sit near chest height. As a result, every grab is shorter and faster.
No swinging
Because the plate stays flat, tools do not bounce or twist while you move.
Room for clippers
Also, unlike most belts, the rig holds two full-size clippers next to your shears.
Easy on, easy off
Quick-release buckles mean you can take it off in seconds between clients.
Hairstylist tool belt or chest rig: which fits your day?
If you mostly cut with shears, a belt can work. However, if you switch between shears and clippers, the rig keeps both within reach.
Many stylists also work on set, at weddings or in clients’ homes. So a rig that travels well matters. Pair it with a bag from the Barber Backpack® lineup and your whole kit moves together.
