(Cl. 132-19) This invention relates to a novel combination its length except at one end where it is provided of a foldable comb and hair curler, in which the with a projection 8 to make a strengthened conhair curler is so constructed that it functions as struction for receiving the pivot pin.

Because of the gradexposed teeth of the comb, thus-preventing snagually tapering shape of the sheath structure nothging and breaking of the teeth when not in use. ing is detracted from its utility as a hair curler.
Stops are provided on the comb and on the Also, because the hair curler completely covers 15 curler whereby they abut against each other in the ends of all the teeth, nothing is detracted the open position. This provides a rigid backfrom its utility as a sheath.
