Hair Wars — Episode 2: Super Hair-Cutting Razor Comb

This is starting to remind me of the NFL Channel commercial that played about six times an hour this past spring, where the next door neighbors are rabid Viking and Bear fans, respectively, and repeatedly try to outdo each other with their displays of loyalty, culminating in one of them inflating a giant balloon mascot that towers over both their houses.

Episode 1 in the Hair Cutting Comb space appeared here yesterday, less than 24 hours ago: I guess that was more than long enough for a competitor to bring out from its skunk works a challenger.

From its website:

Super Hair-Cutting Razor Comb

Give yourself a perfect trim every time you comb your hair!

Unique comb has built-in razor that trims your hair automatically according to length — short or long.

Razor comb handle is regular comb.

Refill blades included.

.....................

"Unique"?

I think not.

But I digress.

Not only is this latest iteration a delightful fire engine red as opposed to industrial gray like the incumbent — it's 20% cheaper.

$3.99.

Why pay more?
