Let’s take a look at why an eco-friendly comb such as a neem comb, Amnotplastic wooden comb from Amnotplastic makes sense when compared to plastic combs.
The Problem with Plastic Combs
Plastic combs are inexpensive, readily available, and lightweight, but their disadvantages outweigh the advantages:
• Non-biodegradable: Plastic combs take hundreds of years to decompose.
• Static charge: Plastic creates a static charge leading to frizzy, unmanageable hair.
• Scalp issues: The plastic teeth may scratch the scalp leading to dandruff or irritation.
• Pollution: Since plastic is a petroleum-based product, each plastic comb contributes to a growing pile of plastic waste.
Bacterial growth and keeping your scalp clear.
Why Wooden Combs are better
The switch to using a wooden comb, and especially a neem comb, has many benefits:
1. Kind to the scalp – Rounded wooden bristles help increase blood circulation and provide a natural massage.
2. Hair fall reduced – A wooden comb helps distribute natural oils from your scalp, thereby maintaining healthier hair.
3. No static charge – Say goodbye to frizz and fly away hair.
4. Eco-friendly product – 100% biodegradable and sustainable.
5. Anti-bacterial – A neem comb is anti-bacterial, and resists bacterial growth, keeping your scalp clean.
