This is a satsuma comb made by a skilled comb craftsman, with each tooth carefully ground.
It is less likely to generate static electricity, is gentle on the hair, and has a moderate massage effect on the scalp.
The overall finish is rounded and luxurious.
The procurement of material for the tsuge has become increasingly difficult year by year, and with the decrease in the number of comb artisans, the production of combs has also declined, making them much rarer than before.
In addition to combing and styling your hair, it also helps remove dirt and dust from your hair.
Those whose hair has been damaged by perms or coloring will especially notice a difference.
Combs were considered talismans in ancient times, and the "tsuge comb" was already mentioned in the Manyoshu during the Nara period, cherished as a tool in people's daily lives and used continuously since ancient times.
Today, combs are made from various materials, but none seem to possess the charm and natural care for hair that a Japanese boxwood comb does.
The qualities of the boxwood and the craftsmanship and spirit of the artisans who dedicate themselves to comb-making speak to the hair; this is what can be called a "boxwood comb."
*Due to the nature of handmade products, the listed size and color may differ slightly from the image.
*Please note that since this is natural wood, there may be individual differences in color, knots, grain, etc.
If the comb becomes dirty, apply camellia oil to the comb, and after the dirt has loosened, scrub between the teeth with a dry toothbrush or similar tool, then wipe it off with a tissue. The comb will have an even better shine and luster.
*Never wash a comb that you have grown accustomed to with water. This will cause the comb to lose its luster and may cause it to warp or break.
