About Sooze 헤어브러시

Sooze는 가정에서의 일상적인 헤어케어와 여행 중 사용을 위해 디자인된 헤어브러시입니다. 브러시 살이 안으로 들어가는 구조여서 엉킨 머리카락을 손쉽게 제거할 수 있고, 보관 시에는 브러시가 보호됩니다. 본체에는 미세 분무기가 내장되어 있어 모발에 수분을 공급하고 헤어케어 제품의 흡수를 돕습니다. 정전기 방지 브러시 살은 빗질과 두피 마사지 중 발생하는 잔머리 날림을 줄여줍니다. 컴팩트한 인체공학적 형태가 기능 부품을 감추며, 자석식 장식 커버를 교체해 외관을 개성 있게 연출할 수 있습니다.

Production Technology
In the production design of the comb, ultrasonic technology is used for precise adjustments to ensure smooth integration of the exterior components. The material selection prioritizes comfort and a soothing massage effect, avoiding excessively hard materials while ensuring the comb remains easy to fold. Additionally, anti-static properties are essential. After multiple trials and experiments, the ideal material for the comb teeth was carefully determined.
Design Challenge
This design balances ergonomic sizing, seamless aesthetics, and market adoption. Considering mold costs and hand size differences across regions, a middle-ground dimension was chosen for optimal comfort. Achieving a nearly invisible parting line required higher production precision, increasing complexity. Additionally, introducing an innovative product demands market education, posing cost and adoption challenges. Strategic refinements ensure both functionality and consumer appeal.
Research
We conducted research on existing functional and portable combs through both online and physical sources to identify products that align with our target criteria. The marketing team first analyzed market sales and distribution models, while the engineering team assessed production processes and costs. After integrating findings, we conducted market research to evaluate consumer expectations before proceeding with prototyping, testing, and iterative refinements through continuous discussions and adjustments.
Inspiration
Many people use water or hair treatment sprays to style their hair, yet traditional combs often become difficult to clean, leading to frequent disposal and replacement. Traditional combs are hard to clean and often discarded, but this design features retractable bristles and an integrated spray for hair nourishment, extending its lifespan. Compact and travel-friendly, it offers effortless grooming at home or on the go, making it a versatile and sustainable solution for daily haircare needs.
Project Duration
The project was launched in Taiwan in 2019 and was showcased at the 2022 Paris International Invention Exhibition, where it won a gold medal. It was also exhibited at the 2022 Taiwan Innotech Expo.
Operation Flow
Patented retractable bristles technology to remove hair from the brush easily. It’s simple to clean and storage.
Easy Portability Take it with you anywhere with different stress relief way – brushing hair, massaging scalp, hair care in the same time.
