Hair styling tool with movable dividers

A hair styling tool comprising:

• a) a handle;
• b) a core having a longitudinal axis and attached to the handle;
• c) a plurality of projections extending radially outwardly from the core at a first distance from the longitudinal axis;
• and
• d) a pair of movable members comprising a first movable member and a second movable member positioned at opposing sides of the core and connected through the core with a connecting rod, the first movable member and the second movable member each extending radially outward from the connecting rod through the core to a distal end having a distal surface which extends substantially the length of the core, wherein the pair of movable members move together between opposing positions, the opposing positions comprising:
• (i) a retracted position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a second distance that is less than the first distance, and
• (ii) an extended position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a third distance that is more than the second distance,
• wherein the pair of movable members move together between opposing positions such that when the first movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the second movable member moves together with the first movable member from its retracted position to its extended position, and when the second movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the first movable member moves together with the second moveable member from its retracted position to its extended position, and
• wherein at least one of the movable members further comprises a damper positioned between an inner portion of the movable member and the core.

A rotating hair brush comprising:

• a) a handle;
• b) a core having a longitudinal axis and attached to the handle;
• c) means for rotating the core about its longitudinal axis relative to the handle;
• d) a plurality of projections extending radially outwardly from the core at a first distance from the longitudinal axis;
• and
• e) a pair of movable members comprising a first movable member and a second movable member positioned at opposing sides of the core and connected through the core with a connecting rod, the first movable member and the second movable member each extending radially outward from the connecting rod through the core to a distal end having a distal surface which extends substantially the length of the core, wherein the pair of movable members move together between opposing positions, the opposing positions comprising:
• (i) a retracted position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a second distance that is less than the first distance, and
• (ii) an extended position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a third distance that is more than the second distance,
• wherein the pair of movable members move together between opposing positions such that when the first movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the second movable member moves together with the first movable member from its retracted position to its extended position, and when the second movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the first movable member moves together with the second moveable member from its retracted position to its extended position.

A hair styling tool comprising:

• a) a handle;
• b) a core having a longitudinal axis and attached to the handle;
• c) a plurality of projections extending radially outwardly from the core at a first distance from the longitudinal axis;
• and
• d) a pair of movable members comprising first and second movable members, each movable member comprising a distal end having a distal surface, the first and second movable members being connected and positioned at opposing sides of the core with a connecting rod positioned at least partially within the core and extending radially outward from the core, wherein the distal surface of the first and second movable members moves between opposing positions upon rotation of the core and the distal surface is sufficiently large that the first and second movable members cannot be withdrawn from the core, the opposing positions comprising:
• (i) a retracted position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a second distance that is less than the first distance, and
• (ii) an extended position wherein the movable member distal surface is distant radially from the longitudinal axis at a third distance that is more than the second distance,
• wherein the pair of movable members move together between opposing positions such that when the first movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the second movable member moves together with the first movable member from its retracted position to its extended position, and when the second movable member moves from its extended position to its retracted position, the first movable member moves together with the second moveable member from its retracted position to its extended position.
