That chair is designed to support your back so your neck is in a natural upright position when sat correctly, not requiring a headrest!

Yup, my ergo evaluator said some headrest can be bad, especially non-adjustable ones, as they push your head forward out of alignment with your back

Isn’t the idea of the chair being super expensive is that it’s optimised extremely well to the human body. You don’t need a headrest. When you are walking around you never think “I need my head to lean against something”. In a natural human position, your head sits on your shoulders. You have your entire spine as rest.

The reason the "gold standard of office chairs" doesn't have a headrest is that Herman Miller knows what they're doing. A headrest is actually bad for your posture, your body is built to support your head on its own. This company has been making the gold standard of office furniture since the time your great grandparents were bumpin uglies and getting your great uncles and aunts all over the couch, they know what they're doing.

While the chair is designed to ergonomically position the body for proper posture and keep your spine and neck aligned, if you’re taller and reclined, it can leave a little to be desired. I’m 6’2 and sitting up, it’s fine. However, reclined, my neck isn’t aligned because it isn’t anywhere near contacting the chair. I have an Atlas headrest for this exact reason. Personally, it’s far better than the one in this video. It’s personal preference though.
