Definitions

  • the present device relates to hand coverings employed during hair coloring application. More particularly, the disclosed device and method, relates to gloves employed for hair coloring having a fluid cohesion and retention area formed by a plurality of projections or rods extending from exterior surface areas of the glove fingers to thereby provide enhanced fluid retention allowing for easy application of creams and pastes to a client and also allowing for employment of the gloves as the applicator.
  • a wide array of beauty products are currently available for treatment or styling of the skin, scalp and hair. As these liquids are often applied by hand using tools for such
  • Such liquid or gel product or cream application used in hair coloring is generally difficult to apply, especially to the portions of the hair needing a touch up, adjacent the scalp.
  • the use of bottles of such fluid with funneled applicators is less than adequate to reach these low-lying areas of hair adjacent the scalp, and generally result in a messy application with the mixed coloring fluid missing the target.
  • the liquid or cream must be applied accurately to a row or areas of hairs on the scalp, while avoiding application to an adjoining area.
  • tools such as small brushes are employed for this purpose, it can be hard to hold the brush or tool with gloved hands, and to concurrently accurately place the liquid dye or coloring fluid or cream, in the correct positions on the scalp.
  • Such a device in addition to providing a barrier to the hands and figures of the user, should also allow for easy and accurate placement of the dye or coloring liquid on the hair in specific areas of the scalp.
  • Such a device should provide structure and function to allow concurrent liquid application and combining of the hair to render it easier to use than conventional handled brushes and squirt bottles. Additionally, such a device should provide for the carrying and positioning of the fluid or gel or liquid used for coloring, in a manner increasing efficiency and accuracy.
  • such a device and method should allow for the positioning of the fluid, gel, or other liquid, in transferable amounts, directly upon the glove fingers of the user.
  • An additional object of this invention is the provision of such a protective and fluid retaining glove, which also provides projections or rods which enhance fluid retention and which can be employed for combing and separating hair follicles while applying the retained fluid therebetween.
  • the present invention provides a device configured in one preferred mode as a protective hand glove for preventing contact with the hand of the user with cosmetic creams and pastes such as those employed for hair coloring and treatment.
  • a protective hand glove for preventing contact with the hand of the user with cosmetic creams and pastes such as those employed for hair coloring and treatment.
  • each glove is adapted with projections positioned to enhance fluid retention and allow for the easy application of creams and pastes.
  • the device is configured as a glove or gloves which are adapted for engagement with either or both of a left and a right hand.
  • Each glove has a palm side which is positioned next to the palm of the hand of the user with the glove engaged on the hand in an as-used position.
  • Each of the palm sides of each glove are configured on one or a plurality of finger surfaces, with a plurality of defined fluid retention areas. These fluid retention areas are defined by areas positioned between the extending members or rods from the surface of the palm side of the glove on any or all of the four finger surfaces of finger portions of the glove and/or the surface of the thumb of the glove.
  • finger surfaces or finger portions can also refer to the same surface on a thumb portion of the glove adapted to surround the thumb of a hand of the user.
  • the fluid retention areas are formed in-between projecting rods from the finger surfaces of the glove itself, or between rods projecting from engaged pads which are engaged to finger surfaces or removably engaged to finger surfaces.
  • the area for fluid retention defined by an area of a plurality of rods extending from finger surfaces, should ideally cover as much area as possible of the finger surfaces on the palm side of the glove, so as to maximize an area for fluid retention of the glove.
