Is it best to comb your hair with a plastic comb or a wooden comb?
People mostly use plastic combs in their daily lives, while other materials, such as wood and keratin, are often not widely used because of their slightly higher prices. In fact, in the eyes of experts, combs made of wood and horns are the best choice.

Dr. Chen Yong, deputy chief physician of dermatology department of Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that combs made of plastic are easy to generate static electricity when combing, which makes hair that is easy to dry become drier and easy to break. At the same time, the generated static electricity will also stimulate the skin of the head and affect the health of the scalp and hair roots. For dandruff and dusty hair, using a plastic comb will make the hair scales stick tighter and tighter, and the hair with static electricity will easily absorb the dust in the air, which is not conducive to keeping the hair clean. Combs made of wood and horns are not as easy to generate static electricity as plastic and nylon materials, which avoids the adverse effects of static electricity on hair and scalp.

If you can choose to use horn comb, it will also have a health care effect. It is understood that the horn is cool and nontoxic, and it is a natural and precious material. Comb your hair with a claw comb, which is free from dirt, pain and itching, does not hang up and moisten your hair. Comb your hair frequently for a long time and massage your scalp at the same time. It has unique health care functions such as accelerating blood circulation in the head, enhancing immunity, diminishing inflammation and cooling blood, relieving pain and itching, calming the nerves and strengthening the brain, preventing static electricity, preventing alopecia, removing dandruff and promoting hair growth. In addition, the different concave and convex angles on the back of the horn comb conform to the natural curve of the human body, and can be directly used to massage the face and body, which has a good relief effect on diseases such as colds, rheumatism and neurasthenia, and also has a good effect on beauty and slimming.
