About this eBook

Comb Grooming Tool explores the surprisingly rich history of the comb, revealing its evolution from ancient times to the present day. More than just a hair grooming implement, the comb provides insights into cultural values, technological innovation, and our enduring fascination with self-presentation. For example, early combs made from bone and shell demonstrate resourcefulness, while the shift to mass-produced plastic combs reflects industrial advancements and changing social norms.

The book examines the comb's journey across different eras, beginning with ancient civilizations and progressing through the medieval period, the Renaissance, and the Industrial Revolution. It analyzes how the design, materials, and cultural significance of combs have transformed over time, mirroring shifts in societal values and technological capabilities.

The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from archaeology, anthropology, material science, and design studies to provide a holistic understanding of this everyday object.
