This comb is so, so practical. I was looking for a good bone or horn comb to use daily with my boar bristle brush, after growing frustrated with cheap plastic combs (both bad for the environment and easily broken in my hair) and harsh metal combs that damaged my hair. At first I was worried the teeth would be too wide for me, but they're just right, and the ends of the teeth feel very satisfying when you comb them over your scalp. Better yet, these combs become nicely conditioned with the oils in your hair (in my case, natural hair oils and a bit of Macassar oil), but wash clean very easily with cool water and just a touch of gentle soap.
All in all, I'm just sad I hadn't gotten this comb sooner; it's made my daily hair dressing and care much less frustrating!
