For anyone who's interested.....
Here's a link that I got from The Long Hair Site: Sierra Legacy Hardwood http://www.combmaker.com/html/home.html  These combs are pretty expensive, but very good quality handmade ones.
 
(heheh... I think I'll just stick to my $7 horn comb for now)

what beautiful combs. I love the black cherry one.
I ordered a bone comb off hairsense and recieved the wrong one. I called the lady and she said I paid for the detangler, but ordered the cutting comb. I don't know how this could happen because I clicked on the buy button that was one the picture off the comb I wanted. Oh, Well. SHe said I could return it and she would send me the right one. I am going to, I just hope she sends me the right one this time. Why does it have to be so hard to find a good comb?

Alisa, I hope you can get things straightened out with them and get the right one this time.  Let us know how you like it! 

The only type of natural comb I've ever used is my bull horn one that I picked up at a medieval faire last year.  I'm wondering if there's any noticeable difference between horn, bone, and wood....  Is there anyone who has used different ones and compared the results?

Thats a good question. I have wondered that myself. I keep going back and forth between wood, horn, and all the others,and about it all.

Sally's, huh? I haven't been in there for awhile. I live in a small town where we have nothing but a safeway and a grocery store that is privatley owned. I live an hour and a half from a large city though, and they do have a Sally's. I'll have to check it out next time I go. I did but one at wal mart that looks seamless. It is by goody, and is part of the ouchless collection.

Thanks for sharing.  That's nice to know for future reference.  I was just in there day before yesterday, but I didn't look at the combs....

I'm a comb collector... and part of my collection is this one from Heavenly Harvest Inc. It works just as well as a wooden comb, except it doesn't make "that singing sound" that a hardwood comb does.
 
The HH comb is a lot cheaper and is very portable - the teeth are not easily broken. And if you want it smoother, it's possible to get fine grit sandpaper and work it down.
 
It's probably not ok for we usage. Rachael Stephens used to have a great line of handmade combs but they're discontinued at UncommonScents.com. UncommonScents still carries Speert and Kent combs, both of which I believe are seamless and shower safe.

Thank you for sharing , Anais.
 
I haven't gotten the comb yet. I decided to keep the cuttng one, I thought it would be good for styling my daughter's hair and cutting my son's. I did find one on ebay that is an ox horn comb.I dont't remember the store name. It says civil war era women's comb in the by-line. It came to $14 with shipping.I like combs to, different ones for different times.
