No, you don’t need to rinse out your pre-treat before #18-ing. It is usually dried by morning and doesn’t goop the scalp at all. The coast should be clear for a clean application of #18, and any sweat is OK to Scritch over.

The letter X is used to show you the thickness choices available on our horn combs (link opens new tab); it can be seen as a light-to-heavy scale that is specific to that horn comb style. Some people know that they like a certain weight or solidity to the tool(s) they use, but if you don’t have a preference you can ask DrLonghair® (who had these carved) for a recommendation. Other than that, if you like a rich feeling in your combs, go for a higher number (e.g. 3X), but for scritchers, stay at 1X or less.

Absolutely! There are no restrictions for use, other than that the comb you use for scritching needs to be one of the finer ones (regardless of the thickness of your hair). The categories we use are just options – the most common usage of the different combs.

Use nothing on your horn comb to treat it but lanolin, preferably our unsulfonated lanolin, because it is from the same animal – a sister to the horn, you might say. Oil is not just oil, and it is not a matter of being ‘good’; the oil must be correct – and yes, it does matter. Lanolin somewhat waterproofs and seals the horn comb. Any other soaking will make the comb swell, thus ruining it. (Read our Horn Comb tutorial carefully!)

Never get your horn comb wet! Never keep it by your sink or in the bathroom!

 Take a soft, damp towel and gently (without twisting) wipe the comb clean.

To do this easily and best, pinch the damp towel or facecloth over the tines, starting at the spine and pull outwards (away from tines) repeatedly. Use a clean area of the towel or facecloth every time. An old toothbrush, nail brush, or old natural bristle hairbrush will remove the remaining oil from between the tines.

Why should you use a damp towel when the comb needs to be kept dry? Because lint from a dry towel will stick to the excess oil, whereas a damp towel will keep its lint to itself. Lanolin this fresh provides a barrier that water doesn’t penetrate, though eventually the horn comb will become sensitive to moisture again.

It is the closest to water that these combs can and should get.

The first number (325 in this example) is the comb design.

The second number (12, or 3 in this example) is the thickness of the comb in that design.

The letter on the end (W in this example) stands for the color – this comb design comes in White, as opposed to Ox, which would be B.
