OUR STORY
We only make one thing.
By Rachel Hayes, founder of Hush.
For years my hair thinned quietly — more in the brush, less volume at the crown — long before anyone talks about it out loud. I did what most of us do. I bought the shampoos. I tried the gadgets that looked impressive online and delivered nothing. And I paid a salon $90 an hour for scalp treatments I could never sustain.
What actually has research behind it is unglamorous: consistent red light at the scalp, and a massage that moves blood through it — five to ten minutes, several times a week. The devices that did this properly cost $400 or more, and the affordable ones cut corners everywhere you can't see.
So I stopped shopping around and built the device once, properly. Hush places 50 red LEDs directly against the follicles, and a brushless motor glides the head side to side so it kneads the scalp without ever pulling a strand. It took two years. We shipped it the day it was right — not before.
