What are the structural features and usage of the all-stainless steel lice comb?

The comb body structure is made of stainless steel
The main structural feature of the all-stainless steel lice comb is that the entire comb is usually made of stainless steel, including the teeth and handle. Stainless steel has high hardness and corrosion resistance. This design makes the comb less likely to rust when it frequently contacts wet hair or liquid medicine, extending its service life. At the same time, the integrated or seamless splicing process reduces the gaps that hide dirt and improves the cleanliness and convenience of use. In addition, stainless steel is not easy to deform and remains stable even when used intensively.

The teeth are densely arranged to improve the removal efficiency
The core function of the lice comb is to comb out the lice and eggs attached to the hair together through dense teeth. The teeth of the all-stainless steel lice comb are usually very close, mostly between 0.1 and 0.2 mm, which helps to shuttle between the hair and peel off the eggs attached to the hair roots. This high-density design can cover more hair during operation and improve the removal efficiency. At the same time, each tooth is usually polished or rounded to minimize scalp irritation.

The handle design focuses on anti-slip and comfort
In order to ensure a stable hand grip during use, most all-stainless steel lice combs have an anti-slip design on the handle. Some products use grooves, curved surfaces or brush patterns, and some models are coated with rubber or silicone coatings on the stainless steel handles to improve the grip during use. These details can effectively prevent the comb from slipping due to wet hands or excessive force, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the use process.

The moderate length of the comb teeth facilitates deep cleaning of the hair roots
Lice and their eggs are mostly concentrated in the area close to the scalp, so the length of the comb teeth needs to be long enough to enter the roots of the hair, but not too long to affect the control. The comb teeth length of the all-stainless steel lice comb is usually set at about 1.5 to 2.5 cm. This length can ensure that the key parts are cleaned and is convenient for adapting to different lengths of hair. Short, medium and long hair users can comb evenly according to their head shape and hair volume to achieve a more ideal cleaning effect.

The hair needs to be fully combed and properly moistened before use
Before using the all-stainless steel lice comb, it is recommended to comb the hair with a regular comb to ensure that there are no knots. If the hair is too dry or frizzy, you can spray it with water or hair spray to make the hair smooth and reduce the pulling of the comb teeth. This preparation process helps to reduce the discomfort of the scalp and improve the fit between the lice comb and the hair, thereby improving the removal efficiency.

Combing should follow the direction from the root to the tip of the hair
In the actual combing process, you should start from the part of the hair closest to the scalp and comb slowly downward along the natural growth direction of the hair to ensure that each combing can bring out the attached lice and eggs from the roots. It is recommended to do it in small sections, first combing high-incidence areas such as behind the ears and neck, and then gradually covering the entire scalp area. Be patient when combing, and each strand of hair needs to be combed repeatedly many times until there is no residual insect body or egg shell.

The frequency of cleaning the comb teeth affects the use effect
During use, lice, eggs and dandruff will continue to accumulate between the comb teeth, so you should wipe the comb teeth with a paper towel or wet cloth every time you comb a small section of hair to keep it clean. After combing, you should use warm water with soap or detergent to thoroughly wash the comb, then wipe it dry with a clean towel and place it in a ventilated place. If a higher standard of disinfection is required, you can also use 75% alcohol or hot water to soak it to reduce the possibility of cross infection.

Can be used with professional drugs to improve the removal rate
Although the full stainless steel lice comb has a physical removal effect, it may be difficult to completely remove lice infestations on a large area using a comb alone. At this time, you can use a professional lice shampoo or lotion, wait for a few minutes after using the medicine, and then use the lice comb to remove it. The role of the comb in this process is to assist in cleaning the lice and eggs that the medicine has not killed or fallen off, and improve the integrity of the overall treatment.

Wide range of applicable objects
The full stainless steel lice comb can be used for children, teenagers and adults, and is suitable for all types of hair quality and length. When used on infants and young children, special attention should be paid to controlling the strength and ensuring that there are no sharp corners on the edges of the comb teeth. In some pet care, such as flea treatment for cats and dogs, some users also use this type of stainless steel comb with fine teeth for flea removal, but it should be used separately from human tools and specially disinfected.

Correct use helps avoid recurrence
The lice comb should continue to be used for inspection combing for a period of time after lice removal to prevent missed eggs from hatching and reinfection. It is usually recommended to comb again on the 3rd, 7th, and 14th days after the day of removal, and observe the head condition for 2-3 weeks. This periodic use combined with daily hygiene management can help reduce the risk of recurrence of head lice infection.
