Abstract:
A system comprises implements, each including a body, a receptacle disposed on one end of the body and having a bore and an aperture formed through spaced apart wall portions of the receptacle, a clip pivotally attached to the elongated body, and a spring operable to bias the clip for a contact with the elongated body. An applicator handle includes a body having a hollow interior and an end thereof sized and shaped to fit the bore of the receptacle, a resilient member disposed within the hollow interior, a pair of pins upstanding on the ends of the resilient member and sized to be received within the aperture and two buttons engageable with the resilient member and mounted for a linear movement, the two buttons are manually operable to move the pins toward each other for a selective engagement or disengagement of the pins with the aperture.
Abstract:
A heated hair-styling appliance for styling hair through heat is provided. The heated hair-styling appliance comprises a heating head having an outer shell covering at least part of the surface thereof, and an inner heat source core disposed within the inner part of the heating head, and a handle attached to a distal end of the heating head. The heated hair-styling appliance works in conjunction with an independent heating unit to heat up the inner heat source core, and the heat source core operationally supplies heat to heat up the outer shell for styling hair after it is being heated. A induction heating unit therefor is also provided.
Abstract:
A permanent hair setting apparatus is disclosed wherein infrared radiation is used to heat the hair in conjunction with a permanent setting composition to a temperature of 100.degree. C. Heating of the hair occurs by winding the hair on infrared generating formers. The apparatus allows for the attainment of permanent setting with a heating time of only 5-60 seconds. Relatively dilute solutions of permanent setting composition are required, which dispenses with the need to neutralize the hair after setting. The use of the apparatus thereby permits permanent setting of the hair to be completed within about 30 minutes.
