Details
The KYVU B10 is a handmade black pocket comb, hand-sawn from a solid sheet of premium cellulose acetate — a plant-based material derived from wood pulp, never injection-moulded. Each comb is shaped, sanded and hand-polished to a smooth, classic glossy-black finish. At 12.9 cm and 13 g, it's a substantial pocket comb — small enough to carry, big enough for full, comfortable styling strokes.
Best for: thick, wavy, curly and textured hair · everyday detangling · beard and moustache grooming · men & women · carrying in a pocket, bag or wash kit · travel and on-the-go grooming · anyone replacing a flimsy plastic pocket comb. Prefer a warm tortoiseshell finish? See the Tortoiseshell Coarse-Tooth Pocket Comb (T10). Browse the full range in our Pocket Combs collection.
The coarse, wider-spaced teeth move cleanly through thick, wavy, curly and textured hair where finer combs catch and pull — ideal for everyday detangling and for working product evenly through the hair. It works neatly through a beard and moustache too. Because the comb is hand-sawn rather than moulded, there are no mould lines, seams or sharp edges, just a smooth, gentle finish from the very first stroke.
Cellulose acetate has real advantages over ordinary plastic: it's warm to the touch rather than cold, it helps reduce static and frizz far more than a plastic comb, and its natural flexibility means it won't snap or crack the way brittle plastic does. Every tooth is hand-rounded so it glides without snagging or scratching the scalp.
Suitable for men and women. Compatible with grooming products — pomade, wax, cream, oil, beard oil. Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth; avoid prolonged soaking and direct heat. A durable everyday comb made to last for years rather than be replaced.

Frequently asked questions
What is cellulose acetate, and is it better than plastic?
Cellulose acetate is a plant-based material derived from wood pulp. It's hand-sawn from a solid sheet rather than moulded, so there are no seams or mould lines; it's warm to the touch, helps reduce static and frizz far more than plastic, and its natural flexibility means it won't snap like brittle plastic. It's also biodegradable.
Is a coarse-tooth comb good for thick or curly hair?
Yes. The wider-spaced coarse teeth glide through thick, wavy, curly and textured hair without tugging or snapping strands, making everyday detangling faster and gentler than a fine comb.
Does the B10 come in another colour?
Yes. The same comb is available in a warm tortoiseshell finish as the T10 — choose classic black or tortoiseshell to suit your preference.
How small is the B10?
At 12.9 cm and 13 g, it's a pocket comb that still gives full styling strokes — small enough for a pocket, bag or wash kit, and durable enough to carry every day.
