A French hair comb turns a simple gesture into an elegant one. Handmade in France from cellulose acetate, our combs hold twists, buns, chignons and half-up styles beautifully, whether your hair is fine, thick or curly. Designed by Marie-Christine Davidian and crafted by hand on the French Riviera since 1980, each comb is both a reliable tool and a decorative piece. Below, find the right comb for your hair type, your style and your occasion.
Three families, one savoir-faire:
Classic Combs : timeless, refined combs for everyday elegance, in dozens of handmade colours.
Spanish Combs : taller, more decorative combs for a dramatic, statement look, perfect for chignons and occasions.
Metal-Teeth Combs (Rock'n'Roll) : sturdy metal teeth for the firmest hold, ideal for thick or slippery hair.
Thick and heavy hair needs a comb that grips a full section without slipping. Choose a larger comb or a metal-teeth model: the teeth slide in cleanly and lock into place to hold a twist or bun all day. Discover accessories selected for thick hair.
Fine hair benefits from a smaller comb with a gentle, secure grip that holds without pulling or sliding out. The smooth acetate keeps every strand comfortable. See our picks for fine hair.
