Abstract
A comb for mounting to a hair-care appliance configured to supply a heated airflow. The comb includes a housing defining an inlet for receiving an airflow from the appliance when mounted thereto and an outlet fluidly connected to the inlet for discharging the airflow. The comb further includes first and second tooth structures mounted to the housing, each tooth structure comprising a row of teeth extending longitudinally across the outlet. The comb also includes a trigger operatively connected to the first or second tooth structure and configured such that depressing the trigger provides relative longitudinal movement between the teeth of the first tooth structure and the teeth of the second tooth structure from a retracted position for receiving a tress of hair between teeth of the first and second tooth structures to an extended position for clamping the tress of hair between teeth of the tooth structures.
