Easy Fix for Hairstylist Pain
Get relief from neck, shoulder, hand and back pain.
Let’s face it, being a hairstylist is bad for your body! Unfortunately, your job involves long periods of standing and looking down.
We see a lot of hairstylists with back aches, neck aches, shoulder aches, tendinitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
You spend most of your day standing in one spot, with a brush in one hand and a hair dryer in the other. Then, you change it up by bending over a wash bowl or spending hours doing straightening treatments or foils with your arms in the air. This may produce great hair but it’s wrecking havoc on your body.
Yikes.

Our top move for hair stylists is Square Shoulders:
-
You are going to make a square with your shoulders. Start by bringing your shoulders up to your ears nice and slow.
-
Now take your shoulders to the back corner of the square. Squeeze with the muscles in the back like you’re holding a pencil between your shoulder blades and you can’t let it drop and jiggle your head a little bit so the neck is loose.
-
Slowly lower the shoulders back down to the bottom of the square.
This one simple move is your ticket to shoulder freedom, ticket to beautiful posture, ticket to opening up the chest and strengthening the back. And ultimately, it’s going to even help the low back and the spine stay erect as you walk through your day and make beautiful hair!
