It's an Electric hot comb. Our hot combs we used back in the day that we put on the stove were made of iron these electric combs don't get hot enough to straighten our hair. I'm 55yrs old still have the same one my mother used on my hair and I've used on my daughter's when they were younger. I'll keep it forever 🙏
the key to any hot comb, you have to use it properly. When pulling it through, you have to use the back of it. it's in the wrist
it is a technique to it .
The heat in the back of the comb not the teeth simpleton
First, why oil in her hair. She trying to burn her hair out! Electric ones can work well, if turned up high enough. Do the tissue test. If it burns the tissue, it’s too hot for your hair. Is hers even on? Never put grease on your hair! Just frying it
I definitely cut the cord off and placed the hot comb on one of my stove hot burners. 👍It definitely served the purpose.
Definitely not hot enough, she would've flinched when she went to touch the hair after passing over it. I learned in cosmetology school on old-style flat irons, not electric.
stove hot comb ain't no easy way around it
not hot enough
First off the hot n gold ones my gma would swear by… don’t get me twisted she also had that stove one and used that on my head too .. had it for generations… but with a hot comb u got to use the back of that comb. This chick is using the hot comb like she’s got a regular comb and that’s not how u use it.
She didn’t use it right
The teeth of the pressing comb isn’t what straightens the hair, actually, it’s the part on the sides, or back of the comb, depending how your looking or holding it. So she just needs to adjust the heat setting (little hotter) and tilt the comb so that the side of it lays flat against the hair, tilting the comb slightly outwards, while gently pulling the pressing comb teeth through the hair. I’ve never ran across any hair that a straightening/ pressing comb couldn’t straighten and I’ve been in cosmetology for 30+ years. A pressing comb put most flatirons to shame, if used correctly!✌️
Need a stove with flame
its the back of the comb the does the straightening...put some tension on the hair and angle the hot comb at a 45 degree angle
where tf is my flatiron😆👍
grease girl, grease
That's a cold comb
She's not using it properly. She's using it like a comb. It's the back of the hot comb that straightens the hair. Chile part a smaller piece of hair and try it again. This time as you pull the hair downward through the comb, press the back of the comb against the hair, not your scalp, to straighten the hair.
Wtf!!! Hair parted like the red sea
it's a waste. stay natural
it wasn't hot enough
it's the song fa me😆😆
Too much product
Not hot enough
She need to cut the plug off and out, the straightening comb on the stove
I remember as a kid loving it and hating at the same time, especially the around ears and the kitchen😆😆😆
Girl come on over here and let me press your hair!! 😆😆😆😆
Not hot enough!!🤔
I'm white but from all the years growing up watching my beautiful friends/sisters of color doing their hair 🥰 I think your suppose to use the flat end of the back of the comb to push down from the roots of the hair and thats the part that actually helps straighten the hair 🤔
u used it wrong the back of the comb it the part that straightens the hair
Maybe hot comb not hot enough
Use the back end of the comb when using, press down....👍
She just needs to learn how to use it thats all
she need to press the back of the comb against the hair 😲
if she turned it in it might work 😏 🤪
you have to make sure the flat part presses against the hair as you comb it old school out
not hot enough
flip the hot comb
She has it turned wrong 😂
She’s not using the back of the comb as she’s combing through her hair plus it’s not hot enough
the hair is wet blow dry the hair first
she used to much oil/ grease
She did t turn the damn thing on.
Not hot enough
You have to use the back of the Hot comb, to Press it out 👍
the back of the comb is what straightens the hair
So what’s the problem? It depends on what hairstyles she’s trying to get right now it’s manageable unless you’re trying to get a super straight which I guess you need more heat turn it up.🤔🤔
It’s an electric. She need a stove an some Crown Royal Grease❤️
too much hair..have to separate it for 1, then she has to use the back of the comb and make sure she has enough grease on her hair...
Just use straightener...timing is important thou...otherwise hair will break off
I didnt see no heat coming from it🤔
Dumb as a rock
Needs more heart
ɴᴏᴛ ʜᴏᴛ ᴇɴᴏᴜɢʜ
She’s using it wrong. Every stylist knows the back of the comb presses the hair.
it wasn't hot enough and plus it's electric not the real one thats heated from the stove
