Portable grooming device and associated use thereof

A portable grooming device for effectively washing, conditioning, and combing user hair, said portable grooming device comprising:

• a flexible hose configured to be detachably coupled to an existing water-supply source;
• and
• a comb in fluid communication with said flexible hose, said comb being configured to discharge fluid outwardly and away therefrom;
• wherein said comb is detachably mated to said hose;
• wherein said hose comprises
• a proximal end having a first coupling affixed thereto, and
• a distal end;
• wherein said first coupling is configured to detachably mate to the existing water-supply source;
• wherein said distal end is configured to detachably mate to said comb;
• wherein said comb comprises
• a shaft including a proximal end having a third coupling directly mated to said distal end, said shaft further having a centrally registered longitudinal axis and an axial bore aligned parallel thereto, said axial bore being in selective fluid communication with said hose,
• a plurality of tines being monolithically integral to said shaft and protruding laterally away therefrom, and
• a plurality of discharge nozzles intermediately situated between said tines, said discharge nozzles being in fluid communication with said axial bore;
• wherein each of said tines is resiliently flexible and displaced between an equilibrium rectilinear position and a tensioned curvilinear position;
• wherein corresponding ones of said discharge nozzles are caused to automatically toggle between an open position and a closed position when associated pairs of said tines are displaced between said equilibrium rectilinear position and said tensioned curvilinear position.

A method of utilizing a portable grooming device for effectively washing, conditioning, and combing user hair, said method comprising the steps of:

• providing a flexible hose;
• providing and detachably mating a comb to said hose such that said comb is in fluid communication with said flexible hose;
• detachably coupling said hose to an existing water-supply source;
• turning on the existing water-supply source;
• positioning and displacing said comb along the user hair;
• and
• said comb discharging fluid outwardly and away therefrom, onto the user hair;
• wherein said hose comprises
• a proximal end having a first coupling affixed thereto, and
• a distal end;
• wherein said first coupling is configured to detachably mate to the existing water-supply source;
• wherein said distal end is configured to detachably mate to said comb;
• wherein said comb comprises
• a shaft including a proximal end having a third coupling directly mated to said distal end, said shaft further having a centrally registered longitudinal axis and an axial bore aligned parallel thereto, said axial bore being in selective fluid communication with said hose,
• a plurality of tines being monolithically integral to said shaft and protruding laterally away therefrom, and
• a plurality of discharge nozzles intermediately situated between said tines, said discharge nozzles being in fluid communication with said axial bore;
• wherein each of said tines is resiliently flexible and displaced between an equilibrium rectilinear position and a tensioned curvilinear position;
• wherein corresponding ones of said discharge nozzles are caused to automatically toggle between an open position and a closed position when associated pairs of said tines are displaced between said equilibrium rectilinear position and said tensioned curvilinear position.
