Do you have neck pain when you have your hair washed at the beauty shop?
The purpose of this blog is to start a conversation about how uncomfortable that can be.
Not only does it hurt some people, it can be dangerous for others because leaning back in salon shampoo bowls causes the neck to hyperextend. This can cause strokes, often called beauty parlor strokes, pinched nerves in the neck, called salon sink radiculopathy, even vertigo.
We will be blogging about these conditions and telling you about HeadsUp®, the product we developed that keeps your neck and head from hyperextending into the shampoo bowl. Basically, it holds the neck in a neutral position, the position it is supposed to be in. HeadsUp® is so comfortable you will wonder why your salon hasn’t always been using it!
