From a Small Workshop in Ukraine to Stylists Worldwide
Hi! We’re Maria and Alex — the couple behind malexboard.
We run this brand together: Alex hand-makes every single board, and I take care of everything else — packing orders, replying to your messages, managing our Instagram, and telling our story.
It all started back in 2021 with one message from a colorist: “Can you make me a balayage board from carbon fiber?”
At the time, we were already working with carbon — making phone cases, wallets, and accessories in our small home workshop.
Oleksandr built the first board by hand. I posted it on Instagram.
And suddenly… more messages came in.
Colorists started ordering, testing, giving feedback.
We listened, adjusted, and improved — again and again.
That’s how malexboard was born — a tool created through real work, real clients, and real needs.
Our boards have two functional sides:
• a smooth matte surface for clean application
• a textured rough side that grips the foil and keeps it from slipping
Since the war in Ukraine began, thousands of talented colorists have moved abroad, spreading awareness of malexboard to new countries.
Today, hundreds of rave reviews from colorists worldwide prove that malexboard is the most convenient tool for balayage, foilyage, highlights, tease lights, Airtouch, Shatush, and other advanced coloring techniques.
We’re not a big company. We’re a couple doing what we love.
And we’re so happy that malexboard has become not just a tool — but a trusted part of your everyday work 💛
