Step by step instructions on how to build a portable salon sink with cold and hot water

[@QuinaeShanice]

Thank you for this video! I finally found one that explains how to actually put it together step by step and shows the tubing. I appreciate this, now I can put together my sink!

[@aspireshayneal]

Did you put it together did you have any problems

[@QuinaeShanice]

@@aspireshayneal yes I put it together. The only issue I was having was getting the sprayer to work because i didn’t understand the piping situation under there but I watched another video and figured it out. Our set ups are a bit different but I made it work! Thank you so much.

[@QuinaeShanice]

On top of that, I put it together by myself!

[@yakidscorner7235]

Thanks for this video! I searched all day and every one just wanted to talk about the sink! But this was simply perfect!

[@justl7122]

I did this your method with a little change for the containers and the long pole i didn't need but .. everyone is surprised I have a shampoo bowl in my apt and they love that shampoo feeling sense alot of stylist stop shampooing 🤗 ty so much.. wish I could show a picture 🤗

[@Itsque28]

Hey, what did you change?

[@justl7122]

My containers I used one tall and one short to go under my sink it wouldn't fit .. but make sure it hold the same amount of water. Also with the long pole and that plastic piece to hold the hose ypu don't need it ..

Thank you and Glad this video was helpful.

Right I said the same thing 🏋️‍♀️

[@jonpilkington1662]

Thank you! I’ve been looking for a solution for over a year as the self contained units sell for 3-4k online. I strongly suggest using the pvc tubing with the water source tank…huge difference. It’s not in the video, but I connected the pvc 1/2” pipe to the 3/4” tubing with a 1” tube and twisted both in. Also,I would also use plumber’s tape on every connection…I didn’t and had to do it all over again.

[@heyhair]

Hello, Can you explain what you mean here?

[@karenvence2166]

Ok, that just. Confused me. So are you saying you use two hoses and twisted them together?

[@Sharkmama412]

Thank you for a great video! The tube insert for the clean H2O; can you recall what department you found it in? This is the last component I need to replicate your set up. For those asking about the cost; depending on the sink set up you choose, it can be approximately $700. For me, my build is approximately $725. There is a company that sells a portable sink set up for $1,800 on Etsy.

[@paigeryan780]

I was doing the math it seemed to be about $400 did it come out to $700 for you because you bought the chair and sink part?

[@miabellabeautyemporium7718]

Thank you so much for this had little leak but I’ll fix that in the morning everything works!

[@OrlingGarcia-o1c]

Hi! Ty for this video. I’m installing my own sink and happen to buy the exact same pump. I notice the minute I plugged it in it starts pumping. Do you switch the outlet on and off every time you want to use it?
