Abstract: A method and apparatus of removing hair from the back, shoulders and arms of a man utilizes a device comprising a comb having teeth on a lower end and a blade embedded in the teeth so that a lower active edge of the blade does not reach a lower edge of the teeth and a s result there is no exposed blade and no skin irritation or safety concerns. A rigid or semi-rigid one-piece elongated handle, a proximal end of the handle having a channel shaped to slidably receive the upper end of the comb, the proximal end also having a lever pressing against the comb to hold the comb securely to the proximal end of the handle, the lever capable of being bent to release the comb. The device has a center of gravity approximately one-third of the way down the handle from the proximal end of the handle.
