Maiko Geiko 'SUKIGUSH' Camellia Oil Wooden Tsuge Comb - Used for Augmentation & Cleaning Hair & Japanese Wigs...

This natural wooden 'Sukigushi' cleaning comb is made in the traditional way of real 'Tsuge' wood saturated with 'TSUBAKI' or Camellia Oil. It has two sides - one with normal tongs for combing and one with very fine tongs for removing dust and dandruff. This is an essential item for Geiko & Maiko as their hair styles are very elaborate and if they wash their hair, it has to be done all over again and takes several hours at a special hair dresser. For this reason, Sukigushi are used to with Tsubaki (Camellia) Oil and a little 'Ketabo' to clean the hair without disturbing the hairstyle between trips to the Hairdresser... It measures 4" (10 cm) long and is 2½ (6 cm) wide. It includes a special Kiri-wood handle which can attach to either side depending on which you wish to use. This is a real one made for use by the Geiko of Gion. These come from a shop called KINTAKEDO which is located in the heart of Kyoto's Hanamachi District that has a long history of supplying Kanzashi and Tsuge Combs to the Maiko and Geiko of Gion Kobu. It is printed on one side with the name of this famous shop. MADE IN JAPAN. Tsubaki oil is a traditional beauty product in Japan and it is what the Geiko and Maiko of Gion have used in their hair for hundreds of years. Tsubaki Oil is rich in minerals and nutrients and a has a cleansing and disinfecting quality. It has a wonderful, mild, subtle fragrance. It can be purchased separately from our store.


IMPORTANT SHIPPING NOTE: Most items include TWO shipping rates: 1) EMS is the higher option and is fully insured, includes a tracking number and the transit time is much faster - delivery is within 7 days of shipping in most cases. We need your TELEPHONE NUMBER so they can contact you for delivery. The TRACKING NUMBER is in your FEEDBACK as of the day of shipping - please TRACK your item to be sure it is not returned to us. If you are not home, they usually leave an 'Attempted Delivery' note but will return it to us as 'unclaimed' if you do not contact them within about a week. 2) STANDARD AIRMAIL is the lower one is and is fine for most inexpensive items to countries with TRUSTWORTHY postal systems but as it does NOT include TRACKING, we have NO WAY of locating the item's whereabouts or of influencing the post office to deliver it once it leaves Japan. The usual delivery time is about 10 days to 2 weeks but it has been known to take up to 6 weeks - especially to Spain. Selecting this option means that you understand that it's safe, speedy delivery is at YOUR risk. We recommend EMS! Some items are cheaper when shipped together - If you wish us to calculate the exact rate, just hit: REQUEST TOTAL and we will make the invoice for you. We ship in large batches and pick-up is arranged with the Post Office about twice a week. Your item goes in the first shipment after it is in stock, packed and ready to go. This is usually VERY FAST, however large, multiple item orders can take longer to prepare. If you have a DEADLINE, please contact us PRIOR TO PURCHASING the item to ask if it is possible. EMS Service is a POSTAL service - not a SELLER Service, meaning that it will speed up TRANSIT TIME but not necessarily the DEPARTURE DATE. ALL items are shipped when they are ready and as quickly as we can manage!
