US 2023/0071232 A1 · COVER, AND METHOD FOR USING SAME

Abstract

Through-hole provided in the substantially central portion of the cover has a thinness that can be stretched when pulled. It is formed to have such a size that the head of a wearer can tautly pass through it, and when the head passes through it, the cover comes to drape over the abdomen and the back of the wearer, and when the abdomen side is lifted up to expose the face of the wearer protruding from the through-hole, the periphery of the through-hole stretches further and adheres to the skin around the face of the wearer from along the nape, under the ears, to along the forehead. Thus, for applying a general hair medicant, such as hair dye or treatment, the cover is a multi-purpose cape which encases the hair with adhering hair medicant, and easily enwraps the hair in its entirety.

A method of use of a cover having a through-hole in a substantially central portion of the cover, comprising the steps of:

tautly passing a wearer's head into the through-hole of the cover by positioning the through-hole over the head of the wearer with the cover being pulled thin so as to stretch the through-hole large enough to allow the wearer's head to tautly pass through;
providing a front cover portion to drape over both shoulders and the abdomen of the wearer;
providing a back cover portion to drape over the wearer's backside;
forming the front and back cover portions into bag portions with upper open sections, and additionally, when the bag portion of the abdominal side is lifted upward to expose the face of the wearer protruding from the through-hole, whereby the peripheral edge of the through-hole stretches and thins, such that the peripheral edge of the thin synthetic resin sheet defining the through-hole tautly adheres to the facial periphery of the wearer reaching along the nape, under the ears, to along the forehead, and wherein, the front portion of the cover lifted up from the abdomen to cover the head is made large enough to enwrap the hair in its entirety.

1 more element

A cover consisting of:

a thin synthetic resin formed as a sheet that can be stretched by hand;
a through-hole consisting of a peripheral edge defined in the thin synthetic resin sheet;
a front cover portion and a back cover portion defined by the thin synthetic resin sheet, the peripheral edge of the through-hole of a size that the head of the wearer tautly passes through formed on the center line along the longitudinal direction of the cover, such that when the head of the wearer is passed through the through-hole, the cover becomes large enough to cover at least both shoulders and the abdomen of the wearer, and in that state leaving a back cover portion as is, when the front cover portion draping over the abdomen is lifted up, and the face of the wearer is exposed and protrudes through the hole, wherein the peripheral edge of the through-hole stretches and thins, such that the peripheral edge of the thin synthetic resin sheet tautly adheres to the facial periphery of the wearer reaching along the nape, under the ears, to along the forehead, and wherein, the front cover portion is made large enough to enwrap the hair in its entirety.
