Combs

I recently came across a variety of plastic combs, some of which came across to me as just strange. I looked more into it, and found that combs were once very elaborate and meant to be used as hairpieces or jewelry. What I have started to do is shoot modern plastic combs entangled in hair, edging towards the idea of the hairpiece. I have started shooting, although I will probably go back and reshoot some of this to fit the needs of this assignment a bit better. In other words, I'm again looking at modern equivalents to the past.

It will be nice to see more people research their ideas before presenting them it makes or brakes a concept in my opinion. Good job!!
