Where are we getting our seamless combs from now, ladies

I have the Magic Star Jumbo Rake and a fine tooth bone comb and neither of them cut my hair up as much as the Ouidad.

What size/number is your fine tooth comb and is it fine enough for you to use on rollersets, flat irons, etc in your experience? Is it a tail or pin? I already have the Magic Star Jumbo Rake and what I would consider a medium size comb (both of which I love and were well worth the money!) but I've been trying to decide which fine tooth comb to get. I always just used whatever cheap comb I had on hand so I'm not even sure if I was using the right size, lol.


Ok ok ok. Since Im trying to have healthy hair I think this is going to be imperative soooo.......Im going to get one. But.....before I do that can someone please PLEASE answer my question:

Which comb is good for 4b thick coarse hair?

What size comb is good for detangling wet/dry?

What comb does both in the first place? (detangling wet/dry)

Help please.


I've only had experiences with the two combs I mentioned above but they work for my thick hair; however, I am texlaxed so you hair may be thicker than mine (but I only relax every 16 weeks or so, and the comb deals with the different textures fighting). I would consider how you currently use combs and go from there. I just replaced the old combs I was using with bomb combs about the same size since the actual sizes weren't a problem, just the quality of them. Even if you don't order from them, Hotcombs.net has some good information on picking combs. It says the Magic Star combs are great for wet (can be used as a shower comb) and dry hair.

I got my Magic combs today and all I could say was "Yes Lawd" when I tried out the Magic Rake..I so needed that :lol: I had been holding out on using the cheap plastic rake I bought right before I read this thread so I was making due with a smallish wooden comb that wasnt' getting the job done.
 
This thread reminded me that the only seamless combs I have are the Magic Star rakes, jumbo and mini. I have still been using a medium tooth comb to detangle a bit more, but it has seams. I bough two more combs from hotcombs.com and I can't wait for them to arrive.

I got the fine tooth mini magic star comb and a medium tooth rectangular detangling comb. I hope these smaller tooth combs can smooth out my ends better.

You ladies are convincing me to just bite the bullet and buy combs from hotcombs.com.
I've been trying to squeeze a coupon code out of them but their customer service dept ain't budging.
 
i think i will try to find one of those bamboo combs for now. i really just want a seamless fine toothed comb
 
Hairsense.com put this humongous wooden seamless comb on ebay for like 7.00 with no shipping but I don't think its good for detangling on dry hair or styling hair. That's all I need and I don't know if I want to get one of hairsense or hotcombs. I hate yall so much. I really do.

Lol! J/K
 
this thread was right on time. I'd ordered my combs and then looked for the threads. I was actually looking for the older thread. I ordered 2 and I LOVE them. I got mine from hotcomb. very quick shipping.
 
Ordered my jumbo and mini set. I can't wait!
I thought my goody rake was doing the damn thing and then I touched those SHARP seams. SMH. Who knew? If I'm going to do this I'm going to do it right.
 
Has anyone used this Mason Pearson Comb for detangling?

Yes they are b bone combs. I went to 5 different BSSs looking and found them around the corner 5 minutes away from my place :rofl: I was on a mission.

I use this one - when I first got my seamless combs, I got the MP rake, that one, and the MP rattail. I use the rake, then the comb, then my Denman for detangling - I use the rattail when I do two strand twists.

My hair and the MP rake - uh, had some words - and there are quite a few teeth missing, so I wanted to look around and see if there were any (slightly cheaper!) alternatives before I got another MP rake.

Can you use the wooden combs on WET hair? I'm assuming the answer is no, but I had to ask....
 
I had a true bone comb. It was beautiful, solid and alabaster white. It cost $30 and was worth every penny. Unfortunately it was stolen. I will call the salon that used to sell them and try to post a link.

Thank you. I figured they are probably not great since it says imitation.

I saw something about them on longhairforum and another blog said the reason they were so cheap was because they were poorly made they didnt rate them
 
So I called Wimex about their bone combs and I was told they are just hard plastic so beware.
 
I recently purchased the Magic Star Jumbo rake and I'm now a believer. Ah, I wish I had of gotten a seamless comb at the beginning of my transition, probably would have not had as much breakage.

I just ordered a rat tail comb for my Curlformer sets and a travel-size magic star rake from hotcombs.net.

I've had an excellent experience buying from that site.

Thanks for the heads up ladies. :)
