Abstract
An elongated, rectangular, substantially flat member integrally molded of a resilient, chemically inert, synthetic plastic material is provided with a centrally located transverse groove permitting the folding over of a cover portion thereof against a shallow enclosure portion which is open at the outer end. A synthetic plastic clamp bar pivotally secured at one side of the open end serves to clamp hair strands to be frosted, bleached or dyed against the inner surface of the container. The cover portion enables full enclosure of the hair strands during the process.
