Abstract
This invention relates to a hair styling brush and method of use. A brush according to the invention will have particular utility with hair which is to be "blow dried", usually after the hair has already been partially dried, for instance after it has been "towel-dried". There is provided a hair styling brush which includes a head, a handle connected to the head, and bristles carried by and projecting from the head wherein the head carries a temperature sensitive color-change material, the material being selected to be inert to hair and adapted to indicate a minimum threshold temperature for hair styling. There is also provided a method of use of such a hair styling brush.
Claims7
A hair styling brush which includes a brush head, a handle connected to the brush head, and bristles carried by and projecting from the brush head wherein the brush head carries a first temperature sensitive color-change material, and a second temperature sensitive color-change material, the first and second temperature sensitive color-change materials being selected to be inert to hair, the first temperature sensitive color-change material being adapted to indicate a minimum threshold temperature for hair styling, the second temperature sensitive color-change material being adapted to indicate a maximum threshold temperature for hair styling.
A method of using a hair styling brush having a brush head, a handle connected to the brush head, and bristles carried by and projecting from the brush head, in which a first temperature sensitive color-change material and a second temperature sensitive color-change material which are inert to the hair are provided for the brush head, the temperature sensitive materials indicating when the brush head is between a minimum hair styling temperature and a maximum hair styling temperature, the method including the steps of (i) winding a section of hair around the brush head;
- and (ii) applying an external source of heat to the brush head and the section of hair such that the color of the first color-change materials changes, thereby indicating that the minimum hair styling temperature required has been reached, whereby said brush head remains this color until the maximum hair styling temperature is attained and the color of said second color-change material changes thus warning the user, so that the brush may be maintained between said minimum and maximum hair styling temperatures.
