Hand-Held Combs

Louet Mini Combs

These popular Louet Single Row Mini Combs are a unique device which can be used for de-hairing and fine fiber combing. After combing, the fiber can be pulled into a sliver or spun straight from the combs. Louet cares about your safety and ensures that the tines of the combs are not sharp.
Also available from Louet are the Double Row Mini Combs. These are similar to the single row but produce a perfect slubless sliver from extremely fine fiber. Both mini combs are light on the wrist. They are made of ash with a lacquer finish.
