Geometry that works as hard as it looks: Quarta’s crisp, boxed cushions and squared silhouette deliver a modern, editorial presence while giving pros the control and client stability that keep services on time. The heavy-duty tubular steel arms wrap seamlessly around the back for a distinctive architectural line, and the smooth hydraulic base keeps height changes predictable when the book is stacked.
Chosen again and again by project specifiers and style directors, the Quarta is one of Collins’ top three fan-favorite chairs for good reason—it makes stations look sharper, clients feel supported, and teams more efficient across cut, color, grooming, and beauty.
Modern lines, professional substance
Quarta isn’t just “a square chair.” Those clean planes and tight seams serve a purpose: they reduce catch points for clippings and color dust, wipe down fast, and stay camera-ready all week. The stitched grid on the seat and back keeps foam mapping consistent, so guests feel evenly supported and settle into a balanced posture—less fidgeting, steadier heads, cleaner lines.
- Square, tailored cushions create a premium, editorial look that photographs beautifully for social and booking galleries.
- Expertly stitched panelling holds shape through heavy commercial use and frequent sanitation.
- Architectural arm design—tubular steel arms wrap around the back for a signature, wrap-clean profile.
Comfort engineered to save minutes
Comfort is a productivity tool. Quarta’s 33" back height stabilizes the upper torso without crowding the shoulders, while the 17.75" seat depth encourages a grounded sit that minimizes the “forward slide” that disrupts precision work. Inside the arms, the 20.75" width welcomes a wide range of body types without inflating your footprint.
- Back height 33" supports posture for long color sessions and detailed finishing.
- Seat depth 17.75" maintains a centered hip position to reduce micro-adjustments.
- Inside width 20.75" balances guest comfort with a space-smart exterior.
Hydraulic performance you can feel
On a fully booked day, adjustments should disappear into your rhythm. Quarta’s professional hydraulic base rises smoothly and lowers with control via foot pedal, so you can micro-tune working height mid-section without breaking cadence. Every stylist and educator will appreciate the planted, wobble-free feel when razor detailing, painting foils, or polishing a hard part.
- Standard base: Round Chrome 4250 hydraulic base for steady, predictable motion.
- Pictured upgrade: 20-20 Square Hydraulic Base for a bolder, design-forward stance.
- Easy Step™ steel footrest with Collins logo provides secure footing and speeds entry/exit.
Operator access from every angle
Great equipment gets out of your way. Quarta’s squared seat front and slim arm geometry keep elbows free around the crown and nape—where millimeters matter. At 26" outside width and 33" overall depth, it protects cart lanes and ADA paths in high-density rooms while still feeling substantial and luxe to the guest.
- Outside width 26"—substantial presence without blocking the aisle.
- Overall depth 33"—easy to fit, easy to clean around.
- Foot-pedal placement supports smooth, hands-free height changes mid-service.
Versatility across your full service menu
Protect ROI by keeping the guest in one seat from consult to finish. Quarta transitions seamlessly across categories so your team maintains momentum and clients enjoy a smoother, more professional experience.
- Salon: wet/dry cutting, texture work, fringe shaping, and blow-dry finishing.
- Color: root retouch, foils, balayage, and toners with clean crown/nape access.
- Grooming: beard shaping and neckline cleanup on a steady, planted base.
- Beauty: makeup, brow mapping/tinting, and threading on a stable, upright sit.
- Education: intuitive controls and predictable motion ideal for academies and test floors.
Sanitation & durability—ready for real salon life
Daily disinfection and rapid resets are non-negotiable. Materials and construction on Quarta are chosen to make that easy. The simplified seam map reduces catch points for clippings and powders, and steel touchpoints shrug off professional sanitizers (used as directed). The Easy Step™ tread plate resists scuffs, color drips, and constant wipe-downs while giving clients reliable traction.
- Easy-clean upholstery shortens turnarounds and end-of-day routines.
- Powder-coated and plated metals maintain finish under frequent cleaning.
- Minimal visual clutter keeps stations looking premium all week.
Design choices that elevate brand and space
Whether you’re building a boutique suite or rolling out multiple locations, Quarta’s design language plays well with a wide range of casework and flooring. Choose the standard round base for a classic, high-polish look—or opt for the square hydraulic base to echo rectilinear cabinets and mirrors. The squared cushioning reads custom without the custom lead times, so openings stay on schedule and on brand.
- Signature wrap-back arms add a distinctive architectural line to a styling row.
- Grid-stitched cushions align with contemporary millwork and tile patterns.
- Logo footrest creates a subtle, professional detail guests notice.
Operational payoff you can measure
Great equipment quietly pays you back in saved minutes and calmer peak hours. With Quarta, guests seat securely (Easy Step™), height changes are immediate (hydraulic control), and sanitation is straightforward (wipe-and-go surfaces). Stack those wins over weeks and months, and you’ll feel them in extra bookings, on-time finishes, and happier staff.
- Faster setups—pedal, set height, and start without breaking flow.
- Fewer interruptions—supportive geometry keeps heads centered for crisp passes.
- Shorter resets—wipe, sweep, rotate, and welcome the next guest on schedule.
