Why it's buy-it-for-life
Redditors report Goody combs bought decades ago (one for around $1 in a multi-pack from Walmart/Dollar General in the late '90s/early '00s) still working well 25-30 years later, outlasting other combs they've tried that break, bend, or feel wrong, and being simple to clean by hand or dishwasher.
What owners say
The original poster reports a Goody comb bought roughly 25-30 years ago for about $1 that still shows no signs of wearing out, and says it can simply be run through the dishwasher when it accumulates too much hair and buildup. They note that other combs they've tried break, bend, or don't feel right by comparison. A commenter separately observes that older plastic combs, including one inherited from a grandmother, tend to hold up better than more recent plastic combs that break easily.

This Goody comb that's somewhere around 25-30 years old now has been a BIFL for me and shows no signs of slowing down.
My grandmother passed away recently and I inherited this big green plastic comb, it's been working great!
I've got a Goody's hair comb I bought in 2001.
