Problems solved by technology

Some men experience frustration using currently available combs because such combs do not provide the “shine” to the hair they would like before going out.
Another issue identified by women is “smoothing” out the look of the hair for any “Up-doo” hair style.
However, despite this flexibility, the club and military type brushes presently known and offered for men do not provide the penetration into the hair pack offered by the 50 / 50 boar brushes and porcupine brushes described above and are designed primarily for use by women.

Abstract

A finishing comb designed to meet the grooming needs of men is disclosed. The finishing comb has an elongated body having three parallel rows of bristles extending from end to end from the bottom surface of the body. The rows of bristles are a combination of natural bristles and synthetic bristles arranged so that the synthetic bristles penetrate the hair pack and the natural bristles distribute the natural sebum of the hair along the lengths of the hair shafts. In one embodiment, the center row of bristles comprises synthetic bristles and the outer rows of bristles comprise tufts of natural bristles. In an alternative embodiment, the inner row of bristles comprises tufts of natural bristles and the outer rows of bristles comprise synthetic bristles.

The boar hair has been shown to dist...
