What is a comb?
A tool for combing hair. In the ancient civilization of China, it was invented by Princess Fang of Xuanyuan Huangdi, who was inspired by fish bones. Originally named for its wood, it is also called wooden comb. There are many kinds of combs now, such as ebony comb, jujube comb, peach comb, horn comb and so on. There are more than 300 kinds of combs in five series, such as practical combs, craft combs, tourist combs, high-grade boutique combs and health care combs. Humans evolved into ancient civilizations through the primitive barbarism of eating animals and drinking blood. Xuanyuan Huangdi, the leader of the tribal alliance, defeated the Chiyou tribe through the battle of Zhuolu and led the Chinese nation to create a new era. The princess of the Yellow Emperor named Fang is a beautiful, virtuous and intelligent woman. Fang Shile likes his black hair very much. Because there is no tool to take care of, his hair is often unkempt and he can only stroke it with his fingers from time to time.

One year, there was a big flood in the Yellow River basin, and the emperor brought some big fish back to the tribe. The emperor asked Fang and others to roast the big fish and eat it. Looking at eating the bone spurs left by the big fish, Fang brightened up at the moment, picked up one, folded a section, unconsciously combed the long hair on his shoulder with the fishbone, and soon smoothed the unkempt long hair. Fang Shile thought, quickly collect these big fishbones, break them into small pieces, and distribute them to the sisters in the palace to teach them to comb their hair. Although fishbone can comb your hair, it will sting your hand from time to time. If the force is too large, the fishbone tends to break easily. What can be used instead of fishbone? Fang kept thinking.

One day, Fang met a clever carpenter. She quickly took out the fishbone and asked the carpenter to make a wooden fishbone based on it. The carpenter readily agreed without much thought. However, when the carpenter showed Fang the wooden fishbone, Fang laughed and said that the fishbone was so big that plowing was ok, but combing his hair was not enough. Only then did the carpenter.

Later, after repeated rework, the carpenter finally made a wooden comb the size of a fishbone. Fang was very happy after seeing it, and immediately asked the women to make up with wooden combs. Soon they all wore long hair, which was comfortable and convenient. Everyone likes this wooden fishbone comb very much and can't put it down. Fang Shile asked carpenters to make more wooden combs, and soon wooden combs became popular in palaces and tribal alliances. People like wooden combs very much, and they all praise the wisdom of the princess. Later, with the changes of the times and the progress of society, horn combs, metal combs and plastic combs appeared one after another.
