Abstract
An apparatus for applying wraps includes a handle, an arbor, a roll of material received on the arbor; and a tubular attachment having an interior space within which the arbor and roll are received. The first tubular attachment includes a slot through which material from the roll is dispensed and a slidable panel for opening and closing passage through the slot. A second tubular attachment also defines an interior space for receiving the arbor and comprises elongate protuberances defining a brush for brushing hair. Preferably the first and second tubular attachments are releasably mountable, interchangeably, and mutually exclusive in their mounting to a base of the apparatus from which the arbor extends.
Claims18
A hair treatment system, comprising:
- (a) an elongate member having a proximal end and a distal end, and comprising
- (i) a handle for grasping by hand and extending from the proximal end in a direction toward the distal end, and
- (ii) an arbor for receiving a roll of material and extending from the distal end in a direction toward the proximal end;
- (b) a roll of material received on the arbor and configured to rotate on the arbor during unwinding of material from the roll;
- (c) a first tubular attachment having an open end and defining an interior space for receiving therein the arbor, with the roll of material received on the arbor, the first tubular attachment being configured for dispensing material from the roll and comprising a surface defining a slot having an opening for passage of the material through the slot from the interior space during unwinding of the roll, and a panel slidable between an open configuration for providing passage of the material through the slot during unwinding of the roll, and a closed configuration for blocking passage of the material through the slot;
- and
- (d) a second tubular brush head attachment having an open end and defining an interior space for receiving therein the arbor, the second tubular brush head attachment configured for brushing hair and comprising a plurality of elongate protuberances each having a distal end extending from a surface of the second tubular brush head attachment;
- (e) wherein the first tubular attachment and the second tubular brush head attachment are configured for releasable mounting to the elongate member and are interchangeable with one another.
