Copper Scalp & Beard Comb, 5-Tooth

The Copper Scalp & Beard Comb (5-tooth) by Cecily Braden is designed for face, body, mean beards,  and crown. Crafted from 100 percent pure copper, never copper-coated, it offers a grounding, sculptural tool that delivers both function and elemental benefit.

Some of our favorite ways to use it:

• Forehead to crown, gliding from the brows through the hairline
• Neck, with upward strokes along the front and back
• Beard, combing upward or downward through the hair
• Body, to stimulate circulation and soften the appearance of cellulite
• Crown work, encouraging microcirculation and nutrient flow to support hair growth

Copper naturally moves Qi and Blood. It is inherently antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-infective, and antioxidant, helping to neutralize toxins on contact. As Leslie J. Franks notes in Stone Medicine: A Medical Guide to Healing with Gems and Minerals, “It is essential for the normal development and maintenance of blood, bone, nerves, collagen and connective tissue.”

Traditional perspectives also attribute to copper the ability to:

• Nourish Liver Blood (supporting concerns such as anemia, hair loss, premature graying)
• Move Blood to expel wind (useful for neurological tension, overexcitement, itchy skin)
• Tonify and conduct Qi (fatigue, inhibited nerve flow, viral conditions)
• Support detoxification of the blood (varicosities, pigmentation irregularities)
• Clear Heat and Fire Toxins (joint discomfort, rheumatoid patterns, free-radical damage)

Copper will naturally tarnish when exposed to air and may show water marks. This is normal and part of its elemental nature. To clean and maintain its shine, follow the care suggestions noted below.

1. Rinse or soak in white food-grade vinegar.
2. Create a paste with vinegar + flour, or baking soda and use to polish

Afterward, rinse and immediately wipe dry with a soft cloth or sponge. If spotted, you can gently use a soft brush with the vinegar paste to polish. Do not leave on any wet surface. Keep dry and keep in the CJB protective travel pouch when not in use.
