Frequently asked questions about In Stock & Ready to Ship Shampoo Units & Bowls
What does “In-Stock & Ready-to-Ship” mean for shampoo units and bowls?
“In-Stock & Ready-to-Ship” means these shampoo bowls, pedestals, and backwash units are already built and available for immediate shipment. Unlike made-to-order equipment that can take weeks or months to produce, these items are ready to leave the warehouse quickly, helping salon owners stay on schedule when opening or upgrading their shampoo area.
How quickly can in-stock shampoo equipment ship?
Most in-stock shampoo units and bowls can ship within 2–3 business days after the order is placed. This makes them an excellent option for salons and barbershops facing tight build-out deadlines, inspections, or last-minute equipment needs. Exact delivery timing may vary based on location and freight scheduling.
What types of shampoo equipment are available in the ready-to-ship category?
This category includes fully assembled shampoo backwash units, standalone shampoo bowls, and pedestal sinks. Many ready-to-ship models feature tilting bowls, plush cushioning, durable vinyl upholstery, and popular design elements such as gold accents or decorative stitching. These options allow you to get a stylish, professional look without long lead times.
Are in-stock shampoo units the same quality as made-to-order models?
Yes. In-stock and ready-to-ship shampoo units are built to the same professional standards as made-to-order equipment. The main difference is availability, not quality. These units are designed for daily use in busy salons and barbershops and offer the durability, comfort, and performance professionals expect.
Can I mix in-stock shampoo equipment with other salon furniture?
Absolutely. Ready-to-ship shampoo units and bowls pair seamlessly with styling chairs, styling stations, dryers, and processors. If you are ordering a mix of in-stock and longer-lead-time items, it’s possible to ship items separately so you can receive critical equipment quickly while waiting on the rest, though additional shipping costs may apply.
Who should consider in-stock shampoo units and bowls?
In-stock shampoo equipment is ideal for salon and barbershop owners who need to open quickly, replace damaged equipment fast, or avoid long production timelines. Whether you’re launching a new space, expanding services, or handling an unexpected replacement, ready-to-ship shampoo units help you stay on time and within budget.
