  I have a dematting comb a regular one and love it.  Its not hard to use or dangerous.  A small one would probably come in handy for matts that are close to the skin.  You just put the dematting comb in toward the skin and at the beginning of the matt and pull the comb through the matt gently.  you do lose a tiny bit of hair because your breaking the matt but it isnt noticable or anything your gonna give a second thought to.  I have used it on jewels and she has never yelped in pain from cutting through the matts.  People that dont use them think they dont need them but they sure do save you from having to get them shaved down.  |
