Acomb over orcombover is a hairstyle forbald or balding men in which the hair is grown long and combed over the short hair area to minimize the appearance of the scalp. Sometimes the parting is lowered so that more hair can be used to cover the head.
On 10 May 1977, Donald J. Smith and his father, Frank J. Smith, ofOrlando, Florida, were awarded a patent (U.S. patent 4,022,227) for their variation of the comb over that conceals baldness by combing long hair in three separate directions.
