A comb is the cheapest upgrade in most grooming routines and the one guys put off longest. Mass-produced plastic combs come off the mould with seams running down the teeth, and those seams drag, snag and generate static every time they pass through hair. Handmade combs get their teeth cut, sanded and polished, which is the entire difference between a tool that styles hair and one that slowly damages it. The same logic applies across the wider tool shelf here, where paddle brushes, scalp massagers and scrubbers all earn their place by doing something a comb cannot: distributing product through longer hair, stimulating the scalp, and working cleanser down to the skin.
Since 2007 we have picked tools for Canadian shoppers the way barbers do, on material and finish rather than price. Pair one with something from our men's hair putty range for styles that need definition, or read our guide on why your scalp matters.
