Abstract
A visor for protecting a user's face from exposure to hairdressing preparations, such as shampoo, during hairdressing operations. The visor includes a fluid-tight extending across the person's forehead from one ear to the other, a trough attached to the fluid sealing means, and a brim extending out over the user's face from the trough. A pair of ear pieces are attached to the ends of the trough for holding the visor to the user's forehead. In a preferred form, the earpieces include full ear covers which extend the fluid-tight seal along the top and back of the user's ears and extend over the user's ears to completely protect the ears.
