What is the meaning of jade combs? What does giving a comb represent?

Combs are something that ladies use every day. The more common ones on the market are made of plastic or ox horn. The jade comb we are going to talk about today is a relatively expensive type of comb and is very rare. It is not only helpful for combing hair, but also has a health-care effect on hair. In addition to this, what is more important is that the jade comb has a very special meaning and significance.

Happily Ever After

In ancient China, when a girl got married, her family would use a comb to comb her hair. “The saying goes, one comb will comb all the way through, two combs will bring her hair down to eyebrows, and three combs will bring her many descendants.” This expresses the family’s good wishes for their daughter. Therefore, jade combs have the beautiful meaning of a happy marriage.

Love and longing

In ancient times, combs were girls’ personal belongings and were often used as tokens of love, a way for men and women to express their love for each other. Therefore, jade combs symbolize love. At the same time, jade combs also represent missing someone. If someone gives you a comb, it means that the other person misses you very much.

Healthy and happy

Combing your hair can make you beautiful and energetic. It can stimulate the nerves and acupoints of the scalp, dredge the meridians, and promote blood circulation. Therefore, a jade comb symbolizes health and longevity. It is also said that if you comb your hair with a jade comb every day, you can sweep away all your worries and untie the knots in your heart, which means that troubles will go away and you will be happy.
