Its the misleading advertisement tell us to buy this and not that all the time.
Thanks doc for being a real honest person and not promoting fake promises like the industry..
Thing with normal plastic comb is they can last you forever as plastic combs do not break on falling or chip off. No bristle breakages like wooden comb. Also are easy to clean.And cheaper compared to wooden ones.

Finally someone has said it. I purchased two wooden combs but they didn't help me.I will rather choose Rs. 25 plastic combs. My hairs glide through it. You have to be gentle while combing hair no matter what!

I am using wooden hair comb for a while now and really love that..eventually our grandparents also used to wooden comb because naturally at that point of time there is no plastic comb was there and look at their hair..very long, too nice and they never ever had that frizzy or breakage in their hair😊and also think lots of products that she talking had never used by her own..just by the way

Don't know about hairfall but it definitely reduces frizz. To test do this -
1. Take a plastic ruler, rub it on your hair and hold it away at a distance of 2-3 cm and see what happens
2. Do the same with your wooden comb and see

Mam for oily scalp and dry ends which type of comb is preferable?

[blackcat]

Wooden combs are the best, before using them dip them in mustard oil for 5-7 days, they won't break easily and the issue related to pores won't be there... She doesn't know it herself...
