My homework is to write stories about objects I have at home.

The following is about: Peine de marfil (Ivory comb)

Could you please check my grammar.

Los peines ahora son generalmente de plástico. El peine en mi tocador es de marfil y es antiguo. Me abuelo me lo dió hace muchos años. Nunca lo he usado. No me gusta peinarse mi pelo con él. Es ligero y pequeño.

Combs now are generally made of plastic. The comb on my dressing table is made of ivory and is an antique. My grandfather gave it to me many years ago. I have never used it. I don't like combing my hair with it. It is light and small.

Yes, but not that bad "comb my hair" looks better, or better to say only heard "comb my hair" .. forms is well written.

Sorry if I'm wrong, like I said, not much English and I'm here to learn.

Not sure, but maybe it's enough to just use "peinar mi pelo " and not the refl. " peinarse " ?
