Haircuts Don’t Have to Be a Struggle Anymore.

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

What the experts say

Why choose the weighted cape?

Everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported, even in the barber’s chair.
If you believe in making haircuts more accessible and inclusive for children or adults with special needs, our weighted haircutting cape was made with that mission in mind.

Haircuts shouldn’t be overwhelming—they can be calming, even joyful. While our cape offers comfort to all, it can be truly transformative for those who are sensory-sensitive and often struggle through haircuts.

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.
