Edge Comb

Abstract

The Edge Comb invention is a versatile, ergonomic hair grooming comb that provides the user safe, close contact with hair fibers in small and difficult to groom areas.

I claim an (1) ergonomic, (2) grooming hair comb that provides the user safe, close contact with hair fibers in small and difficult to groom areas: 
     
       I. The comb of claim is (1) ergonomic because the handle design and the design of the comb teeth allow for comfortable, accurate and safe use in applications such as:
 a) Holding the comb handle comfortably between the thumb and fingers of the hand combined with the 90 degree angle of the comb teeth provide less wrist strain and maximum comb contact to hair fibers along the back of the head hairline when smoothing hairs in any direction required by a hair style such as a ponytail. 
 b) Accessing hair in difficult to reach areas of the face, such as mustache hair under the nose, is more comfortable because the handle of the comb along with the 90 degree angle of the comb teeth place the fingers and the hand holding the comb handle in a less stained position where they do not interfere with access of the comb teeth. to the facial hair providing less wrist and hand strain in facial hair grooming comb positions. 
 c) Because there are two sets of comb teeth at a 90 degree angle located on each side of the comb handle, more comfortable grooming of hair located on opposing sides of the head, such as sideburns and eyebrows, is accomplished with less wrist strain while allowing the comb teeth to closely follow the contour of the face. 
 d) The design of the 90 degree angle of the comb teeth and the comb teeth being attached to a rounded base eliminate scratching, tearing and damage to the finer hair fibers typically found around the hairline providing a high. level of safer combing and smoothing 
 
     
     
       II. The comb of claim is intended for accurate and effective use in a variety of (2) grooming activities for hair fibers in small and difficult areas such as:
 a) Two groups of small comb teeth set at a 90 degree angle on each side of a handle allow more accuracy when grooming and detailing finer, shorter, more fragile and flyaway hair fibers typically found around the hairline into smoother hairstyles, such as ponytails and buns. 
 b) Two groups of small comb teeth set at a 90 degree angle on each side of a handle allow more accurate grooming of hair in small and difficult to reach areas such as mustache hair under the nose and hair located close to braids and at the baseline of installed hair extension and wig styles. 
 c) Two groups of small comb teeth set at a 90 degree angle on each side of the handle allow more uniform grooming of, hair located on opposing sides of the head such as sideburns and eyebrows. 
 d) The small size of the comb with the two groups of small comb teeth set at a 90 degree angle on each side of the handle allow the user to access hair more accurately in difficult and small areas of the face makes it an effective tool assisting in more detailed and accurate grooming activities such as cutting and shaving a variety of men's facial hair styles.
