The best makeup chair for your bedroom, or a teen’s room, will provide a comfortable seat for beauty tasks, and complement the room’s style. When you’re selecting, consider whether you want a design on castors or fixed legs and if a height-adjustable model would be preferable.
Our favorite is the Casual Home 24-inch director's chair. It’s a design with enduring style and comes in a wide choice of canvas and frame colors. A solid wood frame makes it durable, and it has armrests to keep your hand steady as you apply makeup. Find the rest of our top options below.
