Abstract
A hair styling system is disclosed wherein a hair styling mold is placed on the head of an individual whose hair is to be styled. Surface contours of the hair styling mold are spaced from the head of the individual and correspond with a desired shape of the hair style. The hair styling mold is receivable in a hood which provides a defined airflow. The hair styling mold is designed to permit such airflow therethrough and an airflow generating unit connected to the hood creates the airflow through the mold for drying the hair in the shape provided by the surface contours of the hair styling mold.
Claims15
A hair styling system comprising:
- (a) a resilient hair styling mold means for surrounding an individual's hair and having an inner surface with a contour corresponding to a desired hair style, said hair styling mold having means for permitting airflow through the inner surface, said hair styling mold being a separate cap structure receivable on a head of an individual and having substantial rigidity to maintain the inner fixed contour during drying;
- (b) separate hood means dimensioned to freely receive the hair styling mold therein, said hood means having air-flow means for providing airflow through the hair styling mold for drying and setting the individual's hair;
- and
- (c) said airflow means including a vacuum means for causing the airflow from areas adjacent the hair through the hair styling mold so as to draw the individuals hair towards and in contact with the mold means inner surface.
A method of styling hair on the head of an individual, comprising the steps of:
- (a) moistening the hair to be styled and placing a hair styling mold in contact with an individual's hair and which permits airflow therethrough on the head of the individual, said mold having contours corresponding to the hair style desired;
- (b) freely placing the head of the individual with the hair styling mold in place into a separate hood having an airflow means connected thereto;
- and
- (c) activating the airflow means to create a flow of air from areas adjacent the hair through the hair styling mold towards the hood so as to lift the hair into contact with the mold and dry the hair in the shape of the contours of the mold.
A hair styling system comprising:
- (a) a resilient mold means for placement on the head of an individual whose hair is to be styled, said mold means having air penetrable surface means which is spaced from the head of the individual when the mold means is on the head and which has surface contours which correspond to a desired hair style and are in contact with the hair when placed on the head;
- (b) separate hood means for freely receiving the mold means therein when the hood means is on the head of the user and for providing an air flow through the mold means for drying the hair in the style defined by the mold means surface contours;
- and
- (c) airflow means for providing said airflow selectively both in a direction toward the head or away from the head.
