Abstract
A clip-on heat shield for use on a hair gathering accessory, such as a comb, is configured to be attached to the body of the hair gather accessory at a back edge of the hair gathering accessory. A void at an engagement edge of the clip-on heat shield is configured to frictionally engage the back edge of the hair gathering accessory to retain the clip-on heat shield on the hair gathering accessory.
Claims18
A clip-on heat shield for use with a hair gathering accessory, comprising:
- a heat resistant portion having a distal edge, and an engagement edge opposite the distal edge;
- the engagement edge having a “C” shaped void that runs a length of the heat resistant portion and configured to fit over, and frictionally engage a back of a hair gathering accessory;
- and
- wherein the “C” shaped void is formed by a “C” shaped clip disposed in the engagement edge, and the heat resistant portion is overmolded over the “C” shaped clip.
