    The item to be classified here is a children’s hairbrush valued at 52 cents each. The answer choices provide only two headings for comparison 9603 and 9615. The heading 9603 includes brushes while heading 9615 includes combs, hair-slides and the like; hairpins, curling pins, curling
    grips, hair-curlers and the like. Between these two headings, heading 9603 is more specific as it includes brushes and the item to be classified is a hairbrush.

    Within heading 9615, we need to compare the subheadings 9603.29, 9603.30 and 9603.90.
