As an Occupational Therapist who is also a barber. I have found the weighted cape to be very effective with my neurodivergent clients!

 

A lot of my clients appreciate the extra weight to not only regulate their sensory nervous system; but also providing a sense of comfort in what could be an overstimulating environment. I definitely recommend this cape to OTs to be used as a tool to simulate hair grooming experiences for all ages

makes my job much easier.

My clients loved it, they said it made them unwind and relax in the chair. I personally love it because my clients don't move as much in the chair which makes my job much easier.

@jacobluendu

made them feel really calm in the chair!!

My clients loved it, some of them even said the weight could be a bit heavier because it made them feel really calm in the chair. I had a client say it reminded him of the lead blankets when getting an xray at the dentist. I save this cape specifically for my premium services.
