A hair curler which exhibits a winding member with an increasable diameter using a flag-shaped length is rolled up together with a lock of hair providing after each turn a winding member with an increased diameter depending on the thickness of the flag-shaped length and the lock of hair in-between. The number of turns can be chosen in line with a user's hair length and the desired hair curler diameter. The flag-shaped length is rolled onto the winding member together with a lock of hair increasing the winding member diameter depending on the length of the flag-shaped length and the number of turns rolled onto the winding member. Good retaining force of the curler is achieved by use of a self-gripping tape having projecting hooks, pins or bristles, which are preferably formed by cut-open loops of a nylon monofilament, thus resulting in hooks. The hooks may be deformed to mushroom-like bristles by heat process.
A hair curler comprising:
A hair curler having a winding member onto which a lock of hair can be wound, the winding member being formed by a relatively stiff self-gripping tape with outwardly projecting protrusions on an outside, said tape being wound together with a lock of hair engaging said front-side of the tape which defines a hair facing side for the winding.
