Hair Doctor Rotating Tooth Comb Story
The Hair Doctor story
Ron Owen, inventor of the Rotating Tooth Comb, was a designer for Steven Plastics. As the story goes, Ron heard his daughter “cry out” each time her mother combed her thick, wet hair. He decided to figure out what caused all the pulling and pain. After close inspection, he noticed how hair strands would frequently catch on the rigid pin causing hair strands to pull, stretch and break
Ron decided to create a better comb for detangling wet hair. After numerous trial and errors, he successfully designed a unique spine, a "honeycomb" spine, which allowed each pin to pivot independently, providing a gentle, fluid motion that would detangle hair with less pulling, stretching and breaking.
He also discovered that hair loss and damage is much more significant when combing wet hair. The scientific reason, he learned, is that Hydrogen bonds in the hair strand are broken when wet and reform when dry. Rotating teeth are more gentle to wet hair because the pins move and glide significantly reducing the pulling force that causes hair to stretch and break.
