A fine-toothed comb is not typically used for detangling as its teeth are too close together and can cause further knots and tangles.

A metal comb may be too harsh on hair, especially if it has fine teeth.

A plastic comb can work for detangling, but it is not as effective as a wide-toothed comb as its teeth may not be able to reach through thicker or curlier hair.

A wide-toothed comb is the best option for detangling as its teeth are spaced further apart, allowing it to glide through hair and remove tangles without causing further damage.
