Definitions

  • This invention concerns a hair treatment aid in which the selective dyeing of human hair can be more easily accomplished.
  • the invention is a particular applicatin in the so-called high-lighting a woman's hair.
  • an aid for dyeing hair comprises a strip of perforated material through which hair can be drawn using a hooked needle in manner known per se and a sheet of flexible material which extends therefrom into which hair protruding through the perforations in the said strip can be wrapped after colouring material has been applied thereto, so that the protruding hair can be kept separate from the remainder of the hair of the person to which the device has been fitted.
  • the sheet of flexible material is preferably thinner than the material forming the perforated strip.
  • the strip is of relatively thick plastics material and the sheet material is of relatively thin plastics material.
  • the sheet of flexible material is preformed into a lightweight sleeve or bag into which the hair can be inserted before the sleeve or bag is rolled up to form a package.
  • the elongate strip may be formed integrally with the lightweight sheet, sleeve or bag.
  • the strip alternatively may be separate from the sheet, sleeve or bag and may be temporarily securable thereto so that in use the strip can be re-used whilst the sheets, sleeves or bags after use can be discarded.
  • the strip may be formed from one material and the sheet, sleeve or bag from another material and the two bonded together by way of adhesive or by a welding technique or by a mechanical link such as by rivets or eyelets or staples during manufacture.
  • the lightweight sheet, sleeve or bag is preferably formed from polythene.
  • the strip may be formed from latex rubber but more preferably is formed from a plastics material such as polythene and may, for example,be formed by a relatively thick strip of polythene or two or more layers of thinner polythene formed by folding over a sheet of polythene in a concertina-like manner and securing the folded material to form a strip of multiple sheet thickness.
  • a plastics material such as polythene
  • the strip may, for example,be formed by a relatively thick strip of polythene or two or more layers of thinner polythene formed by folding over a sheet of polythene in a concertina-like manner and securing the folded material to form a strip of multiple sheet thickness.
  • the strip may be formed by a layer of double-sided adhesive tape which itself is bonded to an edge region of a plastics sheet, or a sleeve or an opening in a flat plastics sheet material bag and the perforations formed through the sheet material and the double-sided adhesive strip. It is found in practice that the slight adhesion which inevitably occurs between the hair which has been pulled through the perforations and the exposed surface of the adhesive strip assists in holding the edge region forming the strip against the wearer's head.
  • the opposite sides of the tape may possess different adhesion characteristics so that a particularly strong bond is established between the tape and the material of the sheet, sleeve or bag whilst the exposed surface of the tape only admits a relatively weak adhesion bond with the same plastics material.
  • this allows the latter to be secured using the light adhesion bond until the bag is required for use when the bag can be opened by peeling back the free flap from the tape bonded to the other flap so as to expose the opening in the bag and to leave the perforated flap which constitutes the said strip ready to be applied to the head of hair of the client concerned
  • the bags can be used on a throwaway principle.
  • the present invention is also quite distinct from the prior art in that the perforated strip is only intended to accomodate hair from a small region of the scalp and a number of such strips and associated sheets, sleeves or bags are needed for a complete head of hair to be treated. Thus, for example, eight or ten or even twelve such strips and associated sheets, sleeves or bags are needed for a complete head of hair to be treated.
  • the advantage is that only those regions of the head which are to be treated have to be covered with the strips and what is even more important is that the hairdresser can see the regions of the hair adjoining each strip as each is applied to the head and there is very much less possibility of the hairdresser missing a region of dark regrowth which often occurs when a complete scalp cap is used.
  • a hairdressing kit comprises a plurality of perforated strips and having attached thereto a flexible sheet, sleeve or bag all sealed in an airtight container such as another bag or box.
  • the expression device is intended to mean a perforated strip having attached thereto a flexible sheet, sleeve or bag.
  • This feature enables the manufacturer, if desired, to sterilise the devices or manufacture the bags under sterile conditions and seal the devices whilst sterile onto their sealed container. In this way not only are fresh but also completely sterile devices available for use by the hairdresser.
  • the invention is not limited to an aid in which the perforated strip is permanently secured to a sheet, sleeve or bag, it is to be understood that the preferred form of the invention is one in which the devices are not intended for re-use and the perforated strip will, therefore, normally be integrally formed with, or at least normally secured, to the sheet sleeve or bag.
  • the clips may be in the form of hair grips or may have spring-closed jaws with protruding arms which can be gripped between the finger and thumb and squeezed together to open the jaws.
  • a hairdressing kit comprises a number of devices as aforesaid together with at least twice that number of clips, all contained in a sealed container.
  • the clips are preferably correspondingly so manufactured or sterilised before being put into the sealed container.
  • the latter may be themselves sealed into a separate container which may be assoicated with a first container and may typically be contained therewithin.
  • the invention possesses the following advantages:-
  • a method of making a hairdressing aid comprises the steps of:-
  • a second sheet of flexible thin plastics material may be edge bonded to the first after cutting.
  • the sheet of flexible thin plastics material may be folded over and edge bonded to itself to form two edges of the bag, the third edge being formed by the fold, and the opening in the bag is adjacent the perforated strip.
  • Figure 1 shows a bag lO consructed as one embodiment of the invention secured by two spring-clips 12 and 14 so that the strip 16 formed along one of the flaps of the opening of the bag overlies a region of the hair of the model whose head is shown in 18.
  • the strip is perforated and one of the perforations is designated by reference numeral 20 and the hairdresser, using a hooked needle such as a crochet needle 22 can pull small quantities of the hair through the perforations such as 20 in the strip 16 by inserting the hooked end of the needle through the perforation and withdrawing the needle.
  • the technique is well known.
  • the hairdreser After pulling through the requisite number of strands over the desired region to which a particular highlight colour is to be applied, the hairdreser is then in a position to gather the protruding strands in one hand and to apply a dye to the protruding strands.
  • Figure 2 illustrates this technique in which a bottle 24 containing the requisite dye is held in one hand and the protruding strands of hair are gathered together and held in the other hand. It will be seen that the hairdresser is shown here wearing protective gloves or mittens 26 and 28 which in their simplest form may be plastic bags similar to those to which the strips have been applied.
  • the dye would not normally be applied to the hair until all of the strips have been placed in position over the head and all of the hair which is to be dyed has been pulled through the appropriate strips. To this end a number of such bags and strips are shown located over the head and secured in position by means of the various clips.
  • the dyed strands of hair are inserted into the open bag and the latter is then folded as shown in Figure 3 first in half and then possibly at least once more to form a relatively small package which can be secured in its folded up condition by means of either additional clips or by temporarily opening the clips such as 12 and 14 which secure the strip associated with the bag in position and inserting the folded bag below the jaws of the clips concerned.
  • the bags can be unravelled and after removing the clips such as 12 and 14, the bags can be removed from the hair and the hair washed or otherwise treated and then set as desired.
  • Figure 4 shows one form of the bag which is shown in use in Figure 1 to 3.
  • the bag is formed from plastics sheet material such as polythene and includes a rear flap 30 and a front flap 32 which is folded over on itself at 34 to expose the opening into the bag.
  • the opposite rear flap is provided with a thickened strip 36 and both strip and the flap of the bag if the latter protrudes behind the strip are perforated as at 38 with holes through which hair can be drawn using a hooked needle as previously described.
  • the strip 36 may be formed by folding over on itself the flap material 30 and bonding by means of welding, heat- sealing or adhesive or by mechanical fixing such as eyelets, rivets or staples (not shown).
  • the strip 36 is formed by a length of double-sided adhesive tape secured to the flap 30 with sufficient length of the material forming the flap 30 but therebeyond which can be folded over and secured to the exposed adhesive surface of the tape.
  • the strip 36 is a length of double-sided adhesive tape one face of which bonds extremely well to the sheet material 30 and the exposed face of which will only lightly bond to the flap 34 of the other side of the bag.
  • the bag can be manufactured and left in a closed condition with the flap 34 covering the exposed adhesive surface of the strip 36 and when required the flap 34 can be peeled off the exposed adhesive surface to which it only lightly adheres and the strip applied to the hair after they have been pulled through the perforations such as 38.
  • the plastics material from which the bag is formed is preferably transparent so that the hair inserted in the bag can be seen. It is thus possible for the hairdresser to check to see what colour has been applied to various regions of the hair which has already been treated.
  • the bag 10 may be replaced by a sheet of thin plastics material 40 having been sealed or welded thereto a perforated strip of thicker plastics material 42 having perforations 44 therein, through which hair can be pulled in the manner aforesaid.
  • the use of the alternative device Figure 5 is the same as that described in relation to Figures 1 to 4, except that in the case of the sheet (as opposed to a sleeve) it is only necessary to roll up the hair into the sheet material and secure it in place using clips or the like and it is not necessary to acutally insert the hair into a bag or sleeve as is otherwise the case.
