Abstract

This application concerns a hair-thinning comb () comprising pairs of comb teeth. Each pair comprises a primary comb tooth () and an adjacent secondary comb tooth (). A distal primary tip () of the primary comb tooth () extends longitudinally beyond a distal secondary tip () of the secondary comb tooth (). A blocking channel () between roots of the primary and secondary comb teeth () prevent hairs received therein from reaching a cutting element () of a hair clipper (). There is also a cutting gap () separating adjacent pairs of comb teeth to permit hair to pass to a cutting element () clipper (). The distal primary tips () separate hair in a first separation stage, and the distal secondary tips () separate hair between the blocking channel () and the cutting gap () in a second separation stage.
