Dimensions
- Approximately 10 cm × 5.5 cm × 1.5 cm
- Tooth spacing: ~6 mm
Each tooth is individually hand-polished and the comb is finished with a blend of natural oils and beeswax (p.1) — protecting the wood from moisture, enhancing the grain, and ensuring a smooth, anti-static glide through hair.
Why Choose a Walnut Wide Tooth Comb?
Walnut is one of the most prized hardwoods for comb-making — it’s strong, beautifully grained, and naturally rich in color. A walnut wide tooth comb doesn’t generate static electricity, meaning less frizz and better-defined curls. The hand-polished teeth are gentler than any plastic alternative, reducing breakage and distributing natural scalp oils for healthier, shinier hair.
🌿 Care
Our pieces are not coated with waterproof lacquer – the wood is protected only by natural oils and beeswax.
- For everyday cleaning, use a dry, soft cloth. No soap or detergents, no soaking, and do not keep it in the bathroom or any humid place.
- Walnut – strictly no water: dry cloth only, and do not use it on wet or damp hair.
- Other woods tolerate brief moisture: after any contact with water, wipe dry immediately and, once dry, apply a drop of oil or wax.
- Never dry it with a hairdryer, on a radiator or near other heat sources.
- When the wood looks dry, apply a thin layer of natural oil (jojoba, almond) or beeswax.
With proper care, your piece will last for many years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is walnut a good wood for combs?
Walnut is a dense, strong hardwood with a naturally beautiful dark grain. It’s highly resistant to wear, doesn’t generate static electricity, and becomes smoother with use. These qualities make walnut an excellent choice for handmade combs that last for years.
Is a wide tooth comb better for thick hair?
Yes — wide tooth combs are ideal for thick, curly, and coarse hair. The generous spacing between teeth allows hair to pass through without catching or pulling, reducing breakage and preserving natural curl patterns. They’re also perfect for distributing conditioner evenly.
How do I maintain my walnut wide tooth comb?
Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove buildup. Avoid water and humidity. Every few months, apply a thin layer of natural oil (jojoba or almond) or beeswax to preserve the wood’s moisture and beautiful finish.
