The head support is a flexible elongate rectangular strip of open mesh netting of having a rectangular generally J-shaped clip releasably attached at each end by hook and loop type fasteners. A second rectangular generally J-shaped clip is secured to the opposed side walls of the shampoo bowl or sink and releasably receive and engage the curved portion of the clips at the ends of the netting. The clips on at the ends of the netting are adjustable such that the length of the strip between the end clips can be increased or decreased to span shampoo bowls of different widths and the slack or tension of the supporting span can be adjusted for supporting the head at various distances above the bottom wall of the shampoo bowl to provide a comfortable angle of the person's neck. The curved portions of the engaged clips extend longitudinally and are slidably engaged such that the portion of the strip spanning the distance between opposed side walls can be positioned at various distances relative to the front wall of the shampoo bowl to compensate for different neck lengths and head sizes.
