what combs do you use?

THe last one is a hair fork, I suppose you COULD comb with it but it would be awfully slow work!

I personally use a Heavenly Harvest horn comb and a Bone (bakelite) detangler and Palm Pic from Hairsense. The Heavenly Harvest comb is quite rough so I ordered some very fine grit sandpaper to help it along, but the bakelite combs are phenomenal and I love them dearly.

I use a Heavenly Harvest comb as well, and I haven't found either of mine to be rough. :)

I'd call your ebay link a comb (looks like a pick to me -- I don't think I'd wear it decoratively), and the 2-pronged one a fork, but the term "comb" also gets applied to decorative toothed things that go in the hair (like "side combs").

I typically use a Heavenly Harvest wide-tooth comb for detangling as well, though I often go through my hair looking for big tangles with my fingers, first.

I bought one of these: http://cgi.ebay.com/QueCraft-DRAGON-Hair-Comb-HORN-Hand-Carved_W0QQitemZ110291114866QQihZ001QQcategoryZ110 628QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1 262 and just love it.

It arrived quickly, too. I hope to order more stuff from her. :)

I LOVE my combs from Hairsense on Ebay. They're *awesome*. I've got the pocket/palm sized one and a longer one (can't remember the name), and I really want to get the big detangler one with the handle. The material they're made of is so smooth and sturdy, they glide through my hair with absolutely no snags, and my hair is really, really grateful I finally got good combs!
