Hair Combs

Most hairdressers are in on a continuous relentless search of the perfect hair comb. When they find one, they don't ever separate form that ideal tool. It becomes their second pair of hands for which they cannot find enough words of praise.

Hairdressers appreciate a good comb. Professional hair combs of better quality generally cost more than over-the-counter brushes because they last longer and don't break hair as much. Even if you are not a professional salon owner, investing in a good quality tool is a smart move. It's why we stock quality combs from brands such as Wahl, and Fuzzfighters.

Hair Combs and Expert Hair Brushes

Hair combs for professionals have ergonomic handles made from durable materials. Many professional brushes have curved heads to adjust to the scalp shape, as well as two or three layers of bristles to brush the hair gently. Hair combs have shafts made from plastic, wood, or metal. Lately, combination materials made of ceramics and metal alloys or steel are used to produce high-quality combs. These are products that don't break or deteriorate with extended use.

Wide-toothed combs are a great fit for curly and thick hair. Fine-toothed combs make the best use when you need to select sleek hair sections. For example, when parting the hair in the middle or when doing braids and buns that require precision. The shaft of the brush needs to be wider for detangling but narrower for hair colouring, for instance, the ones with a teasing tail used to part hair.

Cutting and Beard Trimming Combs

Of course, no comb is more important than the one you use for giving haircuts and trimming beards. These hair tools must have equally-distributed, perpendicularly-placed dense teeth to help you glide the scissors and other tools that you may use on the surface of the hair.

Comb sets are suitable for most hairstylists, particularly when they are a part of a complete hairdressing bag that includes several types of scissors and combs that you can literally use everywhere - in the salon, as well as for at-home services when mobility and weight are high at stake.
