Afro pick
Wide-toothed comb
An Afro pick is a wide-toothed comb with long, widely spaced prongs, designed for styling tightly curled or kinky hair.
The handle often features a fist symbol associated with Black pride.
Unlike fine-toothed combs, the pick lifts and shapes hair without compressing curls: She used an Afro pick to fluff out her hair.
