The earliest use of the comb appeared about 5,000 years ago. In fact, many
different kinds of combs came out in history. The ancient Egyptians could make
combs. In ancient China, people used combs to show their social status
(地位).Over time, combs have become more efficient tools for hair care at
present. Today, there are different combs for people to choose from and use.
Combs serve different functions for different hair types and styles. People
use combs to deal with disordered (凌乱的) or wet hair. Another common use
for the comb is to secure hair in one position. During the 1900s, combs were
the best choice of keeping hair beautiful.

In the earliest time, people made combs from bones of animals. But later,
people began to make combs from wood or plastic. Now most people use these
two kinds of combs because they are cheap. And high-end combs are made of
expensive steel or gold.
At present, combs have different shapes and types in different colours.
People can choose their favourite combs as they like. But when using combs, we
should know we’d better not use others’ combs. And we should wash or brush
our combs with clean water as often as possible to keep them clean.#7
