Sold by Estonia-based Upstairs Shop, the Grably comb is the perfect [personal grooming tool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manscaped-the-chairman-pro) for hipsters or those with a penchant for vintage items. [Vinyl records](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aurala120a) are often recycled into other objects, from eye glasses to lighting. Created by product designer Pavel Sidorenko and graphic designer and ceramist Maria Sidorenko, Grably is a great example of how sustainable design meets functionality. The beard comb comes in two styles: No. 15 and No. 20. The former features thick, widely spaced teeth for rugged beards, while the latter is a wide tooth comb with thin closely-placed spikes for longer hair. In addition to facial hair, the hair tools can be used on a lady's long locks as well. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/hair) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Upcycling Vinyl Records:** Designing new products using old vinyl records. - **Sustainable Grooming Tools:** Creating grooming tools that are both eco-friendly and functional. - **Multi-purpose Hair Combs:** Hair combs that are suitable for use on both facial hair and long locks. ### Where This Applies - **Eco-friendly Products:** Creating sustainable products using recycled materials. - **Personal Grooming:** Developing innovative tools and products for personal grooming. - **Music and Memorabilia:** Reusing and repurposing music-related products to create innovative new items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [3D-Printed Grooming Combs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philips-fixables.md) - [Style-Conscious Record Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upright-vinyl-record-player.md) - [Surface-Suction Record Cleaners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vinyl-record-cleaner.md) - [Vinyl Record Opening Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abbey-knife.md) - [Eco Suitcase Record Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/victrola-respin.md) - [Vinyl Record Credenzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geology-studio.md) - [Scalp Massage Combs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scalp-massage-comb.md) - [Record-Cleaning Vinyl Turntables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crescent-turntable.md) - [Hair-Reusing Fabric Companies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dutch-startup.md)
