Before most men get into the world of grooming, they don\u2019t realize the wide variety of comb grips and gripping styles that are out there. Surprisingly, the type of comb<\/a><\/span> grip and the way in which you grip your comb can have significant effects on how well you style your hair.<\/p>\n

The good news is that the world of grips isn\u2019t nearly as complicated as it may seem. Generally speaking, the type of grip and gripping style that\u2019s best for you depends on your hair type and your hair length.<\/p>\n

For Short, Straight and Fine Hair<\/strong><\/p>\n

If your hair is short, straight and on the finer side, opt for a comb that doesn\u2019t have a handle. For this hair type, the width of the grip isn\u2019t that important as you don\u2019t need that much surface area while you comb your hair.<\/p>\n

To comb your hair back, firmly hold the center of the grip with your fingers. If you\u2019re just looking to rid your hair of tangles, you can grip the edge of the comb instead.<\/p>\n

For Short, Thick and Wavy or Curly Hair<\/strong><\/p>\n

For this hair type, you\u2019re going to want a handle-free comb that has a wider grip.\u00a0 That\u2019s because you\u2019ll need a stronger, more secure grip in order to get through all of those thick waves or curls.\u00a0 Also, make sure that the grip isn\u2019t made from a flimsy material.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re just trying to detangle unruly strands, hold the grip about two inches away from one end of the comb while you groom your hair.\u00a0 If you\u2019re trying to style your hair by combing it all in one specific direction, hold the comb at the center of the grip instead.<\/p>\n

For Long Hair<\/strong><\/p>\n

If your hair is longer than your chin, you\u2019ll probably benefit most from a comb that has a handle.\u00a0 A handle gives you more leverage as you run your comb along those long strands.\u00a0 Generally speaking, a handled comb is more effective when it comes to getting rid of those tangles that can make your long hair look messy and clumpy.<\/p>\n

If your long hair is particularly thick, make sure that you grip the handle of your comb very firmly.\u00a0 Otherwise, you might drop your comb and break it as you run it through knotted areas.<\/p>\n

For Beards<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beard combs are also available with and without handles.\u00a0 Typically, a beard comb with a handle is best for longer beards.\u00a0 Men with shorter beards tend to do just fine with a handle-free comb.\u00a0 Also, if your beard hair is thick, make sure that you grip your comb extra firmly.<\/p>\n
