Satsuma tsuge - Satsuma-tsuge (also known as Tsuge) is a high-quality boxwood found in Japan's Ibusuki area of Kagoshima Prefecture. Boxwood is easily shaped, hard, polished, and often used to craft combs. Furthermore, the wood allows paint to show up well, is not easily breakable, and develops into a distinct color with age.
Directions
Section and comb hair as you would with any other combs.
Maintenance: The key to maintaining the beauty and functionality of these combs lies in a simple ritual. Weekly, apply a drop of Chidoriya's original pure camellia oil, gently warmed between your hands, to ensure proper care. Ditch soap and water for cleaning; instead, rely on pure vegetable oils like Chidoriya's Original Pure Camellia Oil or Raw Camellia Japonica Oil. A toothbrush with camellia oil can be gently used for a more thorough cleanse.
