Features & Professional Benefits
The comb edge features triple-tiered teeth, a configuration specifically intended for backcombing and teasing. This structure helps stylists build volume at the root while maintaining control over the hair section, making it a practical choice for looks that require lasting lift. The double-coated teeth are designed to glide through hair with reduced pulling, which can support a more comfortable experience for clients during detangling and styling.
At the base of the handle, five metal lifting pins extend downward, providing a dedicated tool for root lifting and separating hair sections. This integrated design means stylists can move from combing to lifting without reaching for a separate pick, keeping the workflow streamlined at the station. The 8.5-inch overall length offers sufficient reach for working through medium to long hair lengths with control.
Professional Applications
This comb is well-suited to salon styling environments where volume, texture, and precise sectioning are part of the service. It supports backcombing and teasing techniques for updo creation, blowout finishing, and styling that requires root lift. The metal pins are useful for lifting hair at the scalp during blow-drying or finishing, while the comb edge handles detangling and smoothing. Its design is relevant to stylists working with all hair types who need a single tool that transitions between detangling and volume-building tasks.

Practical Buying Considerations

Consider this comb for stations where detangling and volume work happen in sequence, as its dual-ended design supports a continuous workflow.
