Tailoring Thursday _______
ACF Afro “KOMB”
The afro comb dates back to ancient Egypt. The oldest comb from collection is 5,500 years old. The comb hasn’t changed much over time, it is sometimes called a pick, and it’s commonly upright with long teeth.
The long, wide teeth of the “Afro Pick” or Afro comb were designed to dig down to the scalp, allowing the hair to be stretched out from the roots into a desired style or shape using a picking motion.
In a dream, a comb represents a good man/woman who strives to help, serve, comfort and entertain others.
In tailoring context it is defined as a toothed instrument used especially for adjusting, cleaning, or confining .any of several toothed devices used in handling or ordering textile fibers.
The Afro comb or hair pick, as many call it, did not originate in North America as some people believe. Popularised by African Americans, the hair pick is a symbol of power and strength for the black community in North America, Africa, and the Caribbean.
