Abstract
A comb for grooming full bodied hair having a handle portion, and an elongated tooth support portion extending longitudinally from the handle portion. A first set of relatively long and widely spaced teeth extend transversely from the tooth support portion such that upon passage through hair such teeth channel the hair without substantial resistance and without adversely affecting the body of the hair. A second set of substantially shorter length of teeth are provided, which each are disposed between a pair of the teeth of the first set such that when the teeth of the second set are passed through the hair a relatively small drag is created on the hair to permit precisely controlled contouring and styling thereof.
Claims10
A comb for grooming hair having full body comprising a handle portion, a straight elongated tooth support portion extending from said handle portion along a straight longitudinal axis, a first set of teeth extending in a direction transverse to said tooth support portion and disposed in a straight row, said teeth of said first set having straight sides and being of substantially uniform length of about one inch and spaced uniformly at intervals of about one fourth inch so that upon passage through hair the teeth of said first set channel the hair without substantial resistance and without adversely affecting the body of the hair, a second set of uniformly spaced teeth extending in a direction transverse to said tooth support portion, said teeth of said second set each being disposed between a pair of teeth of said first set and having straight sides and a discrete length which is no greater than one fourth of the length of the teeth of said first set such that when the teeth of said second set are passed through the hair a relatively small drag is created on the hair to permit controlled contouring thereof, and said teeth of said second set each having tapered configuration with relatively narrowed ends and being spaced from adjacent teeth of said first set by about one eighth inch.
