What type of comb do you use?

[JenniferNoel]

I use a plastic wide toothed pick comb with dull seams and never had any problems, but I only use that once per week. I finger comb before putting my hair up every day.

I use a wood one (from the Body Shop), because it is cheap, nice, light, and I was told it was better for hair when I began to take care of it, and YES it absolutely is !

I have seamless plastic one that I got to replace my beloved gigantic purple comb that I'd had since I was 12. I loved that thing, and I lost it about three years ago. It was the best comb ever. I have a couple of seamed ones too that I might use if I can't find the other, but the seams are very fine on them.

I have several combs... I love to collect combs and wood art which includes combs (in my mind)!

ArtistTree since '05~ a cocobolo wide-tooth comb and a crescent comb. Smooth as can be! These were my mainstay.

Sierra Legacy since '88~ che chen, this one is very smooth, but I've had a couple that weren't so smooth and I needed to polish them up just a bit.

Horn combs~ rarely, but just had to see if they would help.

My new love... Creative combs!!! I have a Creative 8L and a 661 and I LOVE them! These are seamless and handmade combs, very inexpensive (compared to a Madora for instance, which I did have at one time and did not like it... mine was too sharp up between the tines). My Creative combs are very comfortable combs, I feel as if I am massaging my scalp when I use them. I have such a tender head, really. So now I am just looking at my wooden combs while I comb with my Creative combs! Also I got mine through Tenderheaded... wonderful, wonderful customer service.

And one more thought. I tend to think that perhaps the seamless celluloid combs are better at distributing oils all throughout the hair. Wood absorbs oil, but the celluloid doesn't. So I personally think it is helping my hair just a bit.

Time will tell, I just starting using these.

wood and horn! I have many wooden combs, two fine teethed peachwood combs, one boxwood, and the Body Shop one. And one horn comb I got from Chinatown. They work so well.

ETA: the peachwood combs I got was from Daiso Japan for $1.50 each and the boxwood from a seller on etsy for $10, and the horn comb for $12.

I was using a wooden comb and loving it till it went missing. I think one of my cats traded it for some extra cat treats but they aren't talking. Right now I just fingercomb or use a seemless plastic comb.

I use plastic combs. Some are seamless but not all of them.

[MandyBeth]

I use metal, the real Greyhound combs meant for dog grooming, but they work so well! NO static, easy to clean, great to detangle and now they have pretty colors.

[Kelli Kat]

I use the wood detangling comb for Body Shop

I ticked horn, but I suspect my comb is secretly seamless plastic. It just looks a lot like horn and I refer to it as my horn comb so
