How do I use vintage hair combs?
To use vintage hair combs, turn the comb upside-down so that the teeth point upward. Sweep back the section of hair that you wish to pin using a comb. Then, hold your hair in place with one hand and guide the teeth of the comb into the section. On 1stDibs, find a selection of vintage hair combs.
