The Balance Brush Story

“Necessity is the mother of invention.”

Hi, I’m Anna — professional hairdresser and the inventor of The Balance Brush.

My hairdressing journey began over 20 years ago in the vibrant city of Glasgow, where I quickly discovered my true passion: the art of the blow dry. Over the years, I perfected my technique, working with countless hair types, textures and styles. But there was always one problem… the tools.

No matter how many brushes I tried, none of them delivered exactly what I needed. They were either too bulky, too harsh, or simply didn’t give that smooth, polished finish my clients were looking for. I knew there had to be something better — it just didn’t exist yet.

I never set out to become an inventor, but one day, mid blow-dry, I had a genuine eureka moment. What if a brush could have a smaller, more compact barrel — but still feel balanced and familiar in the hand? A brush that created tension, control and volume, without damaging the hair or making styling harder than it needed to be.

I searched everywhere for it. When I realised it didn’t exist, I decided to create it myself.

Two years of researching, designing, testing, refining and working with manufacturers later, the brush I had always dreamed of was finally in my hands. The Balance Brush was born.

The result is everything I wanted as a professional — and everything I believe you deserve at home:
smooth, frizz-free, healthy-looking hair, with a brush that’s genuinely easier and more enjoyable to use.

One of my proudest moments was being granted a UK patent, officially recognising The Balance Brush as a truly unique and innovative design. Knowing that what you’re holding is one of a kind makes this journey even more special.

Thank you for being here, and for supporting a product created from real experience, real frustration — and a real love for great hair.
