[0002] Hair care devices include air combs, hair dryers, hair care devices, scalp therapy devices, etc. Combing hair is one of the indispensable daily grooming methods for maintaining beautiful hair. Combing hair can remove the loose skin and dirt on the head and hair, and give the scalp a moderate stimulation to promote blood circulation, making the hair soft and shiny. Combs and hair dryers are both commonly used daily necessities in life. Combs are mainly used for combing hair, beards or animal hair, and hair dryers are mainly used to dry hair or beards. After washing hair, users usually need to use combs and hair dryers to comb and dry hair respectively. It is relatively troublesome and inconvenient to use combs and hair dryers separately, and the comfort is relatively low. Air combs are a modified product of hair dryers.
