Abstract
A head-cleansing cap having an outer fluid-impervious layer and an inner fluid-holding layer that is equal to or greater than the size of the outer layer. The outer fluid-impervious layer has a peripheral edge defining an opening for receiving a person's head. The inner layer is connected to the outer layer along the peripheral edge of the outer layer and may also be connected to the outer layer at one or more points spaced away from the peripheral edge of the outer layer. The inner layer is saturated with a rinse-free cleaning solution. In use, the head is massaged through the cap to release the cleaning solution onto the head of the user.
Claims15
A head-cleansing cap, comprising:
- an outer fluid-impervious layer having a peripheral edge defining an opening for receiving a person's head;
- an inner fluid-holding layer bound to the outer fluid-impervious layer about the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- said inner fluid-holding layer being at least as great as the size of the outer layer and said inner fluid-holding layer is further connected to said outer layer at least one point spaced from the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- and
- said inner fluid-holding layer is further connected to said outer layer at at least one point spaced from the peripheral edge of the outer layer.
A head-cleansing cap, comprising:
- an outer fluid-impervious layer having a peripheral edge defining an opening for receiving a person's head;
- an inner fluid-holding layer bound to the outer fluid-impervious layer about the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- said inner fluid-holding layer being at least as great as the size of the outer layer;
- and wherein the inner fluid-holding layer is comprised of a plurality of layers, each one of said plurality of layers being connected to the outer layer of the cap at a point away from the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- and
- wherein the inner fluid-holding layer is comprised of a plurality of layers, each one of said plurality of layers being connected to the outer layer of the cap at a point away from the peripheral edge of the outer layer.
A head-cleansing cap, comprising:
- an outer fluid-impervious layer having a peripheral edge defining an opening for receiving a person's head;
- an inner fluid-holding layer which is at least the size of the outer layer;
- said inner layer being further connected to said outer layer along the peripheral edge of the outer layer and at at least one point spaced from the peripheral edge of the outer layer so that the inner layer is slidable relative to the person's head.
The method of cleansing a person's hair and scalp, comprising the steps of:
- providing a head cleansing cap with an outer fluid-impervious layer having a peripheral edge defining an opening for receiving the person's head;
- providing an inner fluid-holding layer which is at least the size of the outer layer;
- said inner layer being connected to said outer layer at least one point spaced apart from the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- connecting the inner layer to the outer layer along the peripheral edge of the outer layer;
- fitting the cap onto a person's head;
- massaging the person's hair and scalp through the cap so that the inner layer slides relative to the person's head and relative to the outer layer thereby releasing fluid held within the inner layer.
