Ideation

Although I brush my hair with a rectangular brush daily, I sometimes indulge myself in using my boar bristle round brush, which allows me to dry my hair while styling it. In order to utilize this brush, I have to grip it and rotate it with one hand while I use my other hand to hold my hairdryer. Before this project, I noticed that this complex and cumbersome rotation was causing some strain to my palm and my wrist, and I analyzed my brush further to find that the small diameter was the cause of most of these issues. In addition, I really disliked how boring the handle was, and so I wanted to design a more ergonomic grip that would also be aesthetically pleasing.
