Hair Combs For Women

Shop hair combs for women with Afro, curly and textured hair, from wide tooth combs for detangling to rat tail combs for clean, neat parts.

The wrong comb snags and pulls, which makes wash day longer and harder on your ends.

The right comb depends on the job.

Use a wide tooth or rake comb with rounded teeth to work through thick coils and curls in sections, wet or dry.

Reach for a rat tail comb when you need sharp parts for braids, twists, cornrows and other protective styles.

Finish with a styling or dressing comb to smooth, tease and shape your look.

Our Magic Collection and Stella Collection combs are heat and chemical resistant, so they suit salon work as well as your routine at home.

Order before 2pm, Monday to Friday, for same-day despatch, with free UK delivery on orders of £50 or more.

Hair Combs For Women FAQs

Which comb should I use for my hair?

It depends on the job. A rake or wide tooth comb suits detangling thick, curly and coily hair, because the wide gaps let curls separate with less pulling. A rat tail or pin tail comb is for parting and sectioning. A fine-toothed styling or dressing comb is for smoothing, teasing and finishing a style.

Is a comb better than a brush for curly hair?

Many people with curly and coily hair detangle with a wide tooth comb first, because it works through knots in sections with less pulling than a dense brush. A brush can still help with smoothing and definition afterwards, so most routines use both. Comb when your hair is damp and coated with conditioner or a detangler.

When should you use a wide tooth comb?

Use it on damp hair after applying conditioner or a detangler. Work in small sections, starting at the ends and moving up to the roots, so knots loosen gradually rather than being pulled through.

How do you use a rat tail comb?

Use the long, thin tail to draw a clean line through your hair and lift out a section, for braids, twists, cornrows or rollers. Then use the fine teeth to smooth the section before you style it.
