The KYVU B15 is a full-size handmade wide-tooth detangling comb with a handle, built for serious daily grooming of thick, curly, wavy and afro hair. It's hand-sawn from a solid sheet of premium cellulose acetate — a plant-based material used in quality comb-making for over a century — then shaped, sanded and hand-polished to a smooth, classic glossy-black finish. At 21.8 cm and 32 g, the integrated curved handle gives grip and leverage that handle-less combs can't match.

Best for: thick, curly, coily, wavy and afro hair · wet detangling after washing · spreading conditioner evenly · post-shower styling · men & women. Have very thick or heavily tangled hair and want extra-wide, step-tapered teeth? See the T13 Extra-Wide Comb with Handle (21.8 cm). Prefer this comb in tortoiseshell? See the Tortoiseshell Wide-Tooth Detangling Comb (T15).

The wide, evenly-spaced teeth glide through knots and tangles without pulling or breaking strands — ideal for working through dense or high-volume hair with steady, controlled strokes. The integrated ergonomic handle gives the grip and leverage you need for thick, curly or coily hair, making each pass smoother and more controlled than a handle-less comb.

It's especially good for wet hair: use it in the shower to detangle and spread conditioner evenly through the hair, then for post-shower styling as it dries. Cellulose acetate is warm to the touch and helps reduce static and frizz, so hair sits cleanly with fewer flyaways after every stroke.

Because each comb is hand-cut and hand-polished rather than moulded, there are no mould lines, seams or sharp edges — just smooth, rounded tooth tips that are kind to hair and scalp.

Suitable for men and women, wet or dry hair. Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth; avoid prolonged soaking and direct heat.

Frequently asked questions

Is the B15 good for thick, curly or afro hair?
Yes. The wide, evenly-spaced teeth glide through knots and tangles in thick, curly, coily and afro hair without pulling or breaking strands, and the full-size handle gives the grip and leverage dense hair needs.

Can I use it in the shower with conditioner?
Yes. The B15 is ideal for wet detangling and for spreading conditioner evenly through the hair, then for post-shower styling. Wipe it dry afterwards rather than leaving it soaking.

What is cellulose acetate?

Does it come in another colour?
Yes. The same comb is available in a warm tortoiseshell finish as the T15.
