Ok I know you're curious and everything but is that something that you HAVE TO KNOW. I mean come up with a better question than that. But to answer the question, they're not combs or brushes, they're called picks and they are used to pick out their hair, like comb it out or whatever. It's not all that common anymore but thats what its used for.

I think its a job well half done. Usually they leave it in there because they are picking out and evening out their afros. Or they might be coming out to braid it and havent finished yet. Or some do it becaue they are trynig to emmulate something usually associated with prisoners. They are the ones that started this trend.

Some blacks use their combs as weapons. They sharpen the handle and use it to stab people. That works unless their victim has a Glock...

It's a 'fro pick to make the afro puff up, and the person may have had it there for a joke, or forgot it there.

Well, it must be a new trend. I have a better question:Why do balding white men do the comb over. That is horrific!!

that's the way they do in Africa decorate their bodies with different items, a culture thing. i guess i will be called racist for telling the truth.
