Goody Ace Hair Dressing Comb Reviews Summary

Design and Size

Pros:

• "Its sleek black design not only adds a touch of style to my grooming routine but also makes it easy to locate in my accessories."
• "It's rigid enough to not bend when combing, yet flexible enough to carry in your pocket and not break."
• "This comb is an excellent choice if you need a larger comb for hair."
• "They're a good, flexible, sturdy comb and live up to their name."
• "The Ace rubber comb, first manufactured in something like 1924, is more comfortable to use— it has a better 'heft', and it doesn’t scratch my scalp."
• "Guys - if you need a superior pocket comb that will hide neatly in your pocket, fit easily in the car console, or even over the visor, then this is the one."
• "I bought a dozen and now I have one in my night stand, medicine cabinet, car, van, camper, wife's purse (in case I forget), tool box, shop drawer and in my pocket."

Cons:

• "The photo shows a comb with both narrow and wide teeth. However, the combs sent to me by Amazon had all narrow teeth."
• "The smaller side doesn’t work really well as far as going through my sons hair."
• "The teeth fine side are too wide and too close together. The comb wont work it's way into my hair, and my hair is nothing unusual."
• "Its also, be aware it a dressing comb. Meaning its big, longer than my entire hand."
• "I guess I never really measured my combs before, but this one is way too big for my pocket."
• "Comb is sturdy and well made but teeth on fine side are two close together and on the course side they are too round on the end thus neither side catches the hair."
• "I have been using Ace combs for years and I've never seen one this size. Yes, it's 7.5 inches long, as advertised. They don't tell you it is 1.5 wide which makes a very large comb."

Material and Durability

Pros:

• "Everything you could want in a comb. Durable, simple, no bristles breaking, this thing has been through hell in just a month and it looks like it is still fresh from package."
• "Made in the U.S.A., according to the packaging."
• "Ace glides through my hair and the teeth doesn't bend."
• "Doesn’t bend or break, feels nice on the head, easy to hold."
• "These combs are pretty durable and last a fair amount of time."
• "This comb is very durable, lightweight and smooth. The bristles are very strong and have shown no signs of bending."
• "This comb is well made with all smooth rounded edges."

Cons:

• "Not the ACE combs I remember. They used to be the best."
• "I suspect it’s plastic."
• "Bought two this time and both had random bits of plastic sticking out from the teeth causing it to rip hair."
• "They have plastic flashing on the fine end causing hair to be pulled and sharp ends on the fine teeth that bite the scalp."
• "The Name of Ace is being destroyed by a bunch of executives who apparently care less about brand quality and image."
• "The combs I received are made of low quality, very brittle plastic."
• "The Ace comb feels more brittle than the Goody product."

Comfort and Usability

Pros:

• "It does what it's supposed to do."
• "It's thicker than a lot of the combs on the market now, good price."
• "Nice thick comb that has been durable. Knocked one star off for the comb tips."
• "For $4, it was reliable and lasted much longer than I anticipated."
• "Solid well made comb, worth the money."
• "It fits nicely in a standard pants pocket and even flexes without cracking when you sit down."
• "This comb is very sturdy and durable. The teeth are strong."

Cons:

• "It pulls out hair, and is sharp-toothed enough to serve as a weapon (well, mostly— a few teeth have broken off and been lost)."
• "What a waste of money do not buy this I threw both of mine straight in the trash."
• "The teeth are sharp and uncomfortable on the scalp."
• "Worst comb Ive ever owned."
• "The wide tooth part of the comb works fine, but the narrow tooth side tugs on my hair every time...Effectively can only use half the comb."
• "After having the comb for a few months the teeth keep breaking off so easily."
• "The durability on this comb is terrible."
