How do you clean a hair comb

To clean a hair comb, you can follow these simple steps:

1. Remove any hair strands: Use your fingers or a toothpick to gently remove any hair strands that are stuck in the comb. Start from one end and work your way to the other.

2. Soak the comb: Fill a basin or sink with warm water and add a few drops of mild shampoo or liquid soap. Submerge the hair comb in the soapy water and let it soak for about 10-15 minutes. This will help to loosen any dirt, oils, or product buildup.

3. Scrub the comb: After soaking, use an old toothbrush or a small cleaning brush to scrub the comb. Pay attention to the teeth and the base where the hair collects. Scrub gently but thoroughly to remove any remaining residue.

4. Rinse thoroughly: Once you've scrubbed the comb, rinse it under running water to remove all the soap and loosened debris. Make sure to rinse all sides of the comb, including the teeth and the handle.

5. Dry the comb: Shake off any excess water from the comb and place it on a clean towel or paper towel to air dry. You can also use a hairdryer on a low setting to speed up the drying process.

6. Optional disinfection: If you want to disinfect the comb, you can soak it in a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar for about 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly afterward.

Remember to clean your hair comb regularly, ideally once a week, to maintain hygiene and prevent product buildup. Here are the steps to clean your hair comb form ESHA Hair Care Tools Manufacturer.
