Can someone with a Nitty Gritty Comb tell me if this is the same thing?

[MummyAbroad]

I'm living abroad and cant get hold of the fab sounding stuff that other MN threads tell me I need to get rid of nits (Headrin, Nitmix etc) and we have just had our first visit!!

A quick look on the U.S. Amazon site showed me this nit comb called "The Terminator" when I searched for a Nitty Gritty. Does it look the same as the real thing? Its got rave reviews....

and another quesh.. I have just treated the kids ok (boys, so very short hair, it was easy!) but I have long hair and no one to help me comb it - I cant see my own scalp, so have I got the feintest chance of being able to comb it properly or will I have to get a crewcut?

It looks like a nitty gritty comb. I have thick shoulder length curly hair, I put the conditioner on, brush it through, comb it with a normal comb ten use the nitty gritty through it.

Yes it's the same thing.

Thank you!

NatashaBeeI can see some sort of bumps on the prongs, maybe thats the twirly bits you mentioned.

goldenlula good to know it can be done!

I am looking forward to owning something called "The Terminator"
