Who We Are

TUFT was created to provide innovative machines and tools for the hair and beauty industry.

Over the years, we have worked closely with hairdressers, beauty therapists and distributors worldwide. That work has given us a strong understanding of, and experience with, hair care products.

Our machines and equipment are designed to complement the hair and beauty products that hairdressers and beauty therapists use, to enhance their efficacy and performance.

TUFT’s products have seen steady acceptance and growth in the global market. We keep our focus on innovation in treatment machines and equipment for hair and beauty professionals.

Our Story

From Tai Wah Distributors to TUFT

  1. 1956

PLAY by TUFT: Salon-Style Hair at Home

PLAY by TUFT is our collection of functional, professional hair styling tools for home, hotel and on-the-go use.

It was inspired by the simple joys in life, and by busy women in Singapore who play many roles and want more time for themselves. Hair styling should be straightforward and fun, so you can style at home instead of booking a salon appointment for every blowout.

The collection has more than ten tools to choose from.
