Comb and hairbrush

Yes
Check first
No

Combs in plastic or metal come out clean – wood and horn do not withstand it.

Updated from your answers.

A few questions to be sure

What is the comb made of?

How to do it

Time
3 min
Water
Lukewarm, 30–40 °C

Remove hair first. One drop of mild dish soap, then rinse and air-dry.

With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.

Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.

Why

Plastic and metal handle lukewarm ultrasonic cleaning, and grease and skin residue between the teeth come loose. Wood and horn are organic and do not withstand soaking, and brushes with a cushion can take in water.

Watch out for

  • Wood or horn: avoid
  • Brushes with a rubber cushion: avoid
