Abstract A precision comb which has, generally, a one piece molded body portion, including a plurality of comb teeth, and a pendulum pivotally secured to the body portion so that the pendulum normally is vertically disposed when the comb is horizontally disposed. The body portion also has indicia provided on it in operative relationship with the pendulum to visually indicate to the user the angular disposition of the comb during use. The user, therefore, can easily and quickly determine the angle at which the comb is being held, and hence, the angle at which the hair is being trimmed. The comb further has a slot provided in its body portion which is horizontally disposed parallel with the comb teeth. A scissors can be extended through this slot to cut the hair.
