Abstract

Examples relating to twisted teeth combs are described herein. An example apparatus may include a base with one or more twisted teeth attached. Particularly, each twisted tooth may have a twisted structure, such as a structure similar to a twist drill bit used by a power drill. As such, the arrangement of the teeth on the apparatus can vary within examples. For instance, the apparatus can include straight teeth and twisted teeth arranged in an alternating order. Additionally, in some implementations, an example apparatus relating to twisted teeth combs can include one or more components, such as a handle connected to the base and/or a storage compartment configured to receive and hold liquids (e.g., hair gel) or substances.

Claims (8)

1. A dispensing comb comprising:

a base having a first compartment and a second compartment, wherein the first compartment includes first access point configured to receive a first liquid into the first compartment, and wherein the second compartment includes a second access point configured to receive a second liquid into the second compartment; and

a plurality of teeth coupled to the base, wherein the plurality of teeth comprises:

a first set of teeth, wherein each tooth in the first set of teeth is twisted along a length of the tooth to provide a spiral shape and each tooth includes an inner channel and one or more slots extending into the tooth in fluid communication with the inner channel; and

a second set of teeth, wherein each tooth in the second set of teeth is straight or twisted along its length to provide a spiral shape and includes an inner channel and a plurality of slots in fluid communication with the inner channel, where the plurality of slots are spaced apart along a length of each tooth, and each slot of the plurality of slots of the second set of teeth are angled with respect to a longitudinal axis of the respective tooth, and each tooth of the second set of teeth provides at least two slots of the plurality of slots at different angles;

wherein the inner channels and the one or more slots of the first set of teeth are in fluid communication with one of the first and second compartments for dispensing the respective first or second liquid onto a user's hair and the inner channels and one or more slots of the second set of teeth are in fluid communication with the other of the first and second compartments for dispensing the respective first or second liquid onto a user's hair.

2. The dispensing comb of claim 1 , wherein the first access point is an opening and the comb further includes a removable cap configured to cover the opening.

3. The dispensing comb of claim 1 , wherein the one or more slots are spaced incrementally on each tooth of the first set of teeth.
