Selection Tips
Despite the fact that a folding comb is most often used as a travel option, its choice must be approached no less carefully than buying an everyday accessory.
The first thing to look for when choosing is the material:
- Plastic is the cheapest and most commonly used material for folding combs. It is lightweight and practical, but has the ability to build up static electricity. Hair becomes electrified, dries and exfoliates.
- Metal combs are strong and durable, but they can injure fine and weakened hair. The best option is combs made of silicone, carbon fiber, ebonite or wood.
The height and frequency of the teeth are also important. For a short haircut, a comb with frequent teeth is suitable, a comb with large, sparsely spaced teeth will perfectly comb long and thick hair.
To avoid injury to the scalp and hair, it is best to choose models with rounded teeth.
Folding massage brushes combined with a mirror are also useful in everyday life.... They are compact, fit perfectly into a handbag and help you quickly fix your hair and tidy yourself up.
The double options of combs with different numbers of teeth are also very convenient and practical. This model can be used for daily grooming, styling and hair cutting.
Professional folding accessories are made of high quality materials. They are durable, practical, ideal on the road and in everyday life. Most often they are packed in special cases or bags for storage. Such a beautiful, stylish accessory may well become an original present. The folding model, just like the usual one, needs constant and careful care.
The comb must be left open from time to time (a tightly closed case encourages the appearance and reproduction of microbes).
Combs should be regularly cleaned of hair and rinsed in soapy water. You should not use combs with broken teeth, such accessories change immediately.
