Definitions

  • My invention consists of an apparatus for and method of treating human hair for obtaining permanent waves and curls which has substantial advantages over existing apparatus for waving or curling hair and those methods which are being used at present.
  • the apparatus which I have invented for permanently waving the hair comprises a cylindrical rod-like body member provided with two diametrically opposite rows of teeth or spines disposed in comb-like fashion, between which the hair is wound around the body, the free end of the hair being held by a clamping bar member of arcuate cross section, one end of which is pivotally attached to the corresponding end of the body while its other end is initially held against the body'by pressure exerted between the indexvfinger and thumb to clamp the free end of a lock of hair and, after thefirst half turn of the body and clamping bar, is held'in clamping position by the hair itself.
  • one or more of the two rows of spines may be made integral with or positioned on the clamping bar instead of the body. With this apparatus it is possible to make waves and curls at the same time.
  • Fig. I is a perspective view of one embodiment of my new wave shaper and curler, hereinafter referred to as apparatus;
  • Fig. II is a perspective view of another form of construction thereof.
  • Figs. III, IV and V illustrate on a reduced scale the successive steps in winding the hair
  • Figs. VI and VH show different waves resulting from using apparatus of different sizes, or by displacing the hair a different number of spines to each side.
  • cylindrical body member 1 is provided with two diametrically opposite rows of cylindrical spines 2, 3, having conical free ends 2a and 3a, the spines being spaced a uniform distance apart in order to facilitate the introduction of the hair therebetween.
  • body member 1 One end of body member 1 is provided with a flattened milled holder 8 and near holder 8 a clamping member 4 of arcuate-cross-section having a forked end is pivoted to body member 1 by a pin 5, the curvature of the clamping member being U-shaped on the side facing the cylindrical body member and substantially equal to that of the rod so that the free end of the hair 9 may be efl ectually clamped to the side of the spines 2, 3, by the clamping member 4 which is held tightly between the fingers of the hair-dresser until the hair is wound a half turn, after which the clamping member is held down by the hair itself.
  • the entire apparatus is kept in this position for approximately one hour, depending on the thickness of the hair, after which a fixing liquid is applied.
  • the hair is left impregnated with this liquid for approximately a quarter of an hour and then taken down.
  • the hair may then be washed, for example with a shampoo, and will remain permanently waved.
  • Curls are obtained by winding the hair on the body and clamp member without any relative lateral displacement thereof; consequently, the hair is not given any inclination with respect to the apparatus. It is also possible to obtain curls and waves in one lock of hair, by first winding the hair with no relative lateral displacement of the apparatus and then, beginning at the point at which the Wave is required, displacing the apparatus to left or right in accordance with the inclination desired and the already described method for waving the hair is applied.
  • the length and depth of hair waves obtained with the apparatus of the present invention depends on the diameter of the body and clamp member, three sizes of which are generally sufi'icient for a complete waving and curling operation.
  • the method of permanently waving hair which comprises the steps of impregnating each lock of hair to be waved with cold waving fluid, winding said lock into the shape of a hollow cylinder composed of a plurality of overlapping helical segments of hair, each segment running in an opposite direction from that of the previous segment with respect to the'longitudinal axis of the cylinder, retaining said hair in its overilapping helical form while it dries at least partially and then releasing the hair.
  • a method as claimed in claim 4 in which the hair is impregnated with a fixing fluid before it has been released and then washed after a suitable interval.
  • a method as claimed in claim 5 in which the hair is retained in overlapping helical form for approximately an hour, and in which the intervalbetween its impregnation with fixing fluid and its being washed is approximately 15 minutes.
  • a method for the permanent waving of hair on a generally cylindrical member having at least two diametrically opposite longitudinal rows of spines which method comprises the stepsof impregnating each lock of hair to be waved with a cold-waving liquid; clamping the tree end of a lock of hair to said cylindrical member, winding each lock about said cylindrical member between the spines thereof by holding the lock taut with the cylindrical member at right angles thereto and shifting the cylindrical member and its associated spines axially in one direction and giving said cylindrical member a complete turn to lay a helical segment of hair thereon, then shifting said cylindricall member axially in the opposite direction and giving it another complete turn to lay a helical segment of lrair thereon overlapping said first helia cal segment in the opposite angular direction, and re-' peating these operations .until the hair is completely wound up; and retaining the said lock of hair on the cylindrical member while it dries at least partially.
  • a method for the permanent waving and curling of hair as set forth in claim 7 which comprises an intermediate winding step consisting of winding the said lock of hair about said cylindrical member and clamping bar while holding the lock taut and at right angles, to the cylindrical member, thus obtaining curls instead of waves, whereby a combination of curls and waves is obtained.
