Thanks for explaining the rusty colour thing. It doesn't affect how well it works, but it just suprised me, given that it seemed so well made.

Thankyou for coming back and addressing the issue.

i always comb through using a normal brush and then a comb before going near our hair with a fine comb, but still found the hair would catch at the edge of the NG comb in a sort of bunch, then tear off.

I am very happy with my flea comb from the pet shop, though, and we rarely have a nit problem, which is lucky.

I havent had a free comb, but have purchased one.
I use it periodically to check ds's hair.
Used it tonight and it was bringing out LOADS of yellow dust. I'm guessing pollen and other tree based detritus. Quite an impressive haul of dust. (but luckily no creepies).

To AtlantisLegoDuplicates and others who've had an issue with the comb catching & pulling hair - please email me as Nitty Gritty may be able to help you directly..... ann @ mumsnet. com

Ok I know this was a freebie and I was very grateful but we had a problem last night.

I washed ,conditioned and brushed through dd's hair so it was really smooth and started to bush through with the NG she gave a yelp and one of the teeth had bent right back and is now misshapen it also cut her scalp a little bit nothing major but still.

Hi comewhinewithme,
I am very sorry to hear you had a problem with the comb; certainly a tooth should not have bent back.
If you email me direct we'll send you a brand new Nitty Gritty Comb, and if possible get the faulty one back from you so we can take a look and send it back to the factory.
We do get a tiny proportion of 'rogue' combs with wobbly teeth, but each comb is individually coded with the time, date, machine it was made on, and even the person who was operating the machine at the time, so we can trace it back and check whether there is any fault with that particular machine.
