The Benefits of Ox Horn Combs and Their Long - Term Effects
In Chinese culture, ox horn combs are not just tools for grooming but also daily items with health benefits. With technological advancements, the materials for combs have diversified, but ox horn combs remain highly valued for their unique material and benefits. Long - term use of ox horn combs can promote blood circulation, enhance immunity, and significantly benefit health. Ox horn combs are auxiliary health products, especially suitable for those who care about hair health.
Benefits of Ox Horn Combs
Anti - Static: Using an ox horn comb does not generate static electricity, preventing hair from becoming messy. It also does not attract dirt, and the comb teeth glide through hair without causing pain.
Massaging Scalp Acupoints: Ox horn combs can massage scalp acupoints, accelerating blood circulation and boosting immunity.
Itch Relief and Hair Care: When the scalp itches, using an ox horn comb can effectively relieve the itch and provide benefits such as soothing muscles, calming the mind, and removing dandruff.
Preventing Hair Problems: Gently pressing the scalp with an ox horn comb morning and night, combing several times, can dredge the meridians, prevent hair malnutrition, prevent white hair, yellow hair and hair loss.
How to Identify Genuine Ox Horn Combs
Ox horn combs are mostly hand - polished, with natural curves, slight blood streaks, and textures. They do not generate static electricity when combing. High - quality ox horn combs have good gloss, a smooth and fine texture, and feel comfortable. They are heavier than ordinary plastic combs and are not easily damaged. Inferior ox horn combs have dull colors, lack luster, poor texture, and may have cracks, making them prone to breaking.
A reliable method to identify genuine ox horn combs is by burning the shavings. Use a knife to scrape some shavings from the comb, then place the shavings on the knife and burn them with a lighter. If you smell burnt feathers or hair, it is genuine. If you smell burnt plastic, it is fake.
Why Combing Hair Can Promote Health
Combing hair for health has scientific basis. Many important meridians in the body converge at the head. Slight massage and stimulation can dredge the meridians, promote blood circulation, while nourishing the hair also has a very good effect.
Effects of Combing Hair on the Body
Relieving Headaches: Combing hair can stimulate scalp acupoints, generating bioelectricity that transmits through the head to the periosteum, relieving vascular spasms and thus alleviating headaches.
Meeting Hair's Oxygen Needs: Poor scalp blood circulation can lead to yellowing hair. Regular combing stimulates the scalp, promoting blood circulation through nerve reflexes, meeting the hair's oxygen needs, and promoting healthy hair growth.
