A pair of elongated levers are provided and pivotally connected intermediate their opposite ends and define first and second pairs of corresponding lever ends. The levers are relatively swingable in at least closely adjacent parallel planes and the first pair of lever ends each include a pair of generally parallel end portions spaced apart in generally the same corresponding plane and generally paralleling the longitudinal extent of the corresponding lever. A first pair of the generally parallel end portions define elongated channel members opening laterally in the same direction paralleling the corresponding plane and the second pair of end portions of parallel end portions define elongated presser members seated in the channel members with one of the presser members disposed between the channel members and one of the channel members disposed between the presser members. The levers are relatively pivotal to laterally swing the presser members outwardly of the channel members and the spacing between the channel members is sufficient to enable the aforementioned one presser member to be swung from the seated position within the corresponding channel member without contacting the other channel member. One pair of the end portions have electrical resistance heating structure operatively associated therewith.
A twin curling iron including a pair of elongated levers pivotally connected intermediate their opposite ends and defining first and second pairs of corresponding lever ends, said first pair of lever ends each including a pair of generally parallel end portions spaced apart and disposed in a single plane generally paralleling the longitudinal extent of the corresponding levers, a first pair of said end portions defining elongated channel members opening laterally in the same direction paralleling said plane with a first channel member opening toward the second and the second opening away from the first channel member, the other pair of said end portions defining elongated presser members seated in said channel members with one of said presser members disposed between said channel members and said second channel member disposed between said presser members, said levers being relatively pivotable to laterally swing said presser members in said plane outwardly of said channel members and the spacing between said channel members being sufficient to enable said one presser member to be swung outwardly of the corresponding channel member without contacting the other channel member, one pair of said end portions having electrical resistance heating means operatively associated therewith for heating said one pair of end portions.
