篦
U+7BE6 "篦" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that refers to a fine-toothed comb, often called a bamboo comb or a nit comb, traditionally used for grooming hair and removing lice and their eggs. This ideograph is composed of the bamboo radical at the top, indicating its material origin, and a phonetic component that contributes to its pronunciation, which is commonly read as "bì" in Mandarin. Historically, the character and its associated tool have been significant in East Asian cultures for personal hygiene and hair care, and the symbol appears in classical texts and modern contexts ranging from literature to idioms referencing tidiness or meticulousness.
