Grip-Tuth® (pronounced Grip-Tooth) Hairtainer sidecombs are the best sidecombs in the world. Each Grip-Tuth®sidecomb is handcrafted so its teeth touch through the middle of the comb. This makes Grip-Tuth® different and better than all other sidecombs. Only Grip-Tuth® combs have touching teeth. The touching teeth g-r-i-p gently, and securely hold all hair types. Grip-Tuth® works equally well on fine and thin hair as well as thick, coarse and hard-to-manage hair.
When you insert the sidecomb, your hair gets locked in above the touching teeth, which work like a "flexible spring." Your hair can't slip past the touching teeth. The comb stays put; it's both comfortable and secure.
These are great for quick and easy hairstyles, simply pull back side sections of hair and secure with a comb for an authenic 40s look.
Combs measure 2 3/4 inch in length and come in a pack of 2 per card. Now available in the full range of browns. These products are handmade so some colours may vary, but we have tried our best to categorise the browns into each colour. Please see comparison photo of the gradient of colours now available compared to the black combs.

Returning customers note: previous stock of 'shell' has been a combination of brown and tortoiseshell.

Grip-Tuth Combs (International): here
I have lots of fine, super-soft hair that combs love to slip out of no matter how much I pay for them. But these combs stay in - all day.
They remind me of the combs around in my childhood and teen years. Somewhere along the line they decided to make them from different materials and design and so that they wouldn't do their one job...
I'm quite dreadful at styling but this size is so easy for pulling back larger sections of hair and securing them. Super-easy.
To say I love them would be an understatement. Don't muck around buying others, especially if you've got soft hair.
These are the first combs that actually work for me. I have very fine, flyaway hair and have tried so many combs and clips. None have worked. The grip tuth combs hold my hair securely in place all day (even when playing sport) without placing any stress on my hair.
Wish I had found these years ago!
I have long thick hair, and often clips and combs won't hold my hair in place. But these Grip-Tuth combs do! I've tried them a few times and am very happy with the results; no need to redo or fix my hair
I have really thick heavy hair, as a hairdresser this is my go to! I have in various sizes and once they’re in, nothing moves!
I love these combs! They are perfect for vintage hairstyling and actually work great as a substitute for vintage wave combs to set 30s finger waves overnight!
