  • Patent number: 8950410
    Abstract: A comb has a function for preventing slippage occurring when the comb is gripped, and allowing a user to remove a liquid adhered to the fingertips promptly. Further, the comb can be deformed flexibly. The comb has a concave-convex surface formed in a back face part of a comb main body, and the holes are formed in concave parts of the concave-convex surface. Curving surfaces are formed in side face parts on both sides of the comb main body, and through-holes communicating with the holes are formed in concave parts of the curving surface. When the user applies his/her fingers onto the back face part, the concave-convex surface and the holes function as a slippage preventing part. When applying the fingers onto the side face parts, the curving surface and the through-holes function as the slippage preventing part.

  • Patent number: 8479749
    Abstract: This invention is a cylindrical device placed on your finger or thumb and contains a 3 piece apparatus that can be detached coming out of the cylinder wither vertically at the apex, or on the sides. There is a pick sticking directly upwards from the finger and a mini comb and a brush between 90 to 180 degrees on each end of the pick (alternative manufacturing methods). The pick is pushed into the center of the braid and will break the braid apart. The comb or brush is used to straighten the hair as the pick breaks the braid apart. The entire process, while usually performed with two hands, can be accomplished with one hand thus making the device easier, less tiring and less expensive than alternative devices currently on the market.

  • Patent number: 7231925
    Abstract: A hair pick comprising an elongated base member made from a material which is both flexible and resilient. A plurality of teeth project from an upper side of the base member. Finger engagement means is provided on the lower side of the base member, approximately midway between the base member's ends. Transversely oriented finger gripping means are provided on each of the base ends, having portions extending above and below the base member. With the base member in an unflexed state, the axes of the teeth are substantially parallel. When the hair pick is gripped, forces may be applied through the combination of the finger engagement means and the finger gripping means to flex the base member causing the teeth to be reoriented either into a converging closed position or a diverging open position.
