Using the color canvas makes coloring and foiling long hair so much easier. I am able to saturate the hair better. Stabilize the sections. And stand straighter. The client is more comfortable as they just sit straight. The canvas is a conversation piece as well. All the other clients in the salon want to know what it is. What you are doing. Resulting in more business for me. When I post videos of using it, I always get comments and inquiries on how they can receive that service. It's a win win! I also love the canvas to lay out my extension hair when installing. And laying them out to color the extensions, as to not take up counter space. I can place 6-7 bowls on the canvas when doing a huge fashion project. The dent on the side works well pulled up next to me to work as a tray. The magnet holds the hair clips. The huge clip that is included, holds a towel to hang off of it. It also folds for easy storage. ❤️ It's definitely all purpose, and an asset to my salon!
