Abstract
A process for lengthening the hair of persons having short hair and for thickening the hair for those having a relatively snall amount of hair, which process comprises the steps of aligning supplemental hair with the natural hair, adhering the supplemental hair to the natural hair utilizing a colored thermpolastic glue, intertwining the warm adhered natural and supplemental hair together to permit a binding of the supplemental to the natural hair, and then styling the combined hair. A technique for preparing the thermoplastic glue is also disclosed.
Claims15
A process for extending human natural hair which comprises joining supplemental hair to natural hair to form an extension to natural hair, which process comprises:
- a. dividing the natural hair into a multiplicity of sections each of which is to be subjected to an extension treatment;
- b. providing a section of supplemental hair which has a distal end and a proximal end;
- c. applying a thermal hot melt glue to the proximal end of the section of supplemental hair;
- d. forming a receiving site in the natural hair for the supplemental hair;
- placing the proximal end of the supplemental hair containing the hot melt glue into the receiving site;
- and
- f. adhesively binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair;
- g. purging any moisture present from the area of the junction of the natural hair with the supplemental hair, wherein the step of adhesively binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair also includes the steps of
- g1. allowing the hot melt glue to cool to the touch;
- g2. rolling the ends of strands of natural hair and supplemental hair together while the hot melt glue is still tacky to intertwine them;
- and
- g3. allowing the glue to harden.
A process for extending human natural hair which comprises joining supplemental hair to natural hair to form an extension to the natural hair, which process comprises:
- a. dividing the natural hair into a multiplicity of sections each of which is to be subjected to an extension treatment;
- b. providing a section of supplemental hair substantially color matched to the natural hair, said section having a distal end and a proximal end and containing from about 150 to 300 strands of hair therein;
- c. applying a thermal hot melt glue to the proximal end of the section of supplemental hair;
- d. forming a receiving site in the natural hair for the supplemental hair;
- placing the proximal end of the supplemental hair containing the hot melt glue into the receiving site;
- and
- f. adhesively binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair by entwining strands of each with tacky hot melt glue and permitting the glue to harden;
- wherein the step of adhesively binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair also includes the steps of
- g1. allowing the hot melt glue to cool to the touch;
- g2. rolling the ends of strands of natural hair and supplemental hair together while the hot melt glue is still tacky to intertwine them;
- and
- g3. allowing the glue to harden.
A process for thickening human natural hair which comprises:
- a. dividing the natural hair into a multiplicity of sections each of which is to be subjected to an extension treatment;
- b. providing a section of supplemental hair which has a distal end and a proximal end;
- c. applying a thermal hot melt glue to the proximal end of the section of supplemental hair;
- d. forming a receiving site in the natural hair close to the scalp for the extension hair;
- e. placing the proximal end of the supplemental hair containing the hot melt glue into the receiving site such that a large portion of the supplemental hair overlies the natural hair;
- and
- f. adhesively binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair whereby, binding the supplemental hair to the natural hair also includes the steps of
- g1. allowing the hot melt glue to cool to the touch;
- g2. rolling the ends of strands of natural hair and supplemental hair together while the hot melt glue is still tacky to intertwine them;
- and
- g3. allowing the glue to harden and then
- h. purging the moisture from the area of the natural hair where the supplemental hair will be attached.
