Application filed March 26, 1926. Serial No. 97,809.
Our invention relates to a waxing strip for Marcel irons and more particularly to an article of manufacture consisting of a composition of matter in convenient form for waxing a Marcel or like iron; the
position at the time of application of the heated iron thereto.
In marcelling hair. according to common practice, the hair is first treated with a wax to stabilize the wave which is later imparted to it by the hot iron. If too much wax is used, the hair becomes sticky and matted or if an insufficient amount is employed, the hair soon loses its curl or wave. When the wax is used alone it soon loses its effectiveness, leaving the hair dry and heavy, but if an oil is combined with the wax, the effective qualities of the wax are maintained and the oil serves as a stimulant for the hair root. It is also advantageous to add preservative for the wax and oil.
A composition well adapted for the purpose consists of refined beeswax, eucalyptus oil and sodium carbonate in substantially the proportions of:
Parts by weight. Oil of eucalyptus 10 Refined wax 85 Sodium carbonate 5 In order to facilitate application of' a composition consisting of the ingredients named to the Marcel iron we employ a vehicle consisting of a fabric body which may be impregnated with the composition to carry the composition in a fixed body to which the iron may be applied in a heated state to melt the composition and transfer it from the vehicle to theiron for application to the hair.
In preparing the composition strip the wax is first melted and then the oil of eucalyptus added to the wax and the sodium carbonate mixed into the fluid consisting of the other two elements. To this we add an odorant, preferably heliotropian crystals in sufficient quantity to overcome the odor of the oil of eucalyptus. While the composition is still in a melted state we dip into it strips of fabric, preferably 12 ounce plain white duck, to impregnate the strips with the composition. The impregnated strips are then allowed to dry and may be stored indefinitely without loss of the functional properties of the composition.
In using the strip, the Marcel iron is first heated and when at the proper temperature, is applied to the strip in the manner illustrated in the accompanying drawing, heat from the iron melting the composition so that it is transferred from the strip to the iron and then from the iron to the hair when the iron is applied to the hair. Heat from the iron forms the curl or wave in the hair and during the curling process the wax and oil are transferred to the hair, forming a coating therefor which holds the contour of and semi-permanizes the wave, the oil forming a coating for the Wax which prevents its disintegration and the sodium carbonate serving as a preservative for both the wax and the oil.
\Vhen the wave is retraced, the wax is applied only during the last operation as but one application of the wax is necessary.
It is apparent that storage of the wax in the fabric strips provides for a convenient application of the wax to the iron and wastage of the wax is reduced to a minimum, as the iron may be applied to the strip and receive the wax therefrom only in the required quantity and application of the iron to the strip may be repeated from time to time until all of the wax has been drawn from the strip.
What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A waxing strip for Marcel irons comprising a fabric vehicle impregnated with a composition consisting of refined beeswax and oil of eucalyptus,
2. A waxing. strip for Marcel irons comprising a fabric vehicle impregnated with a composition of refined beeswax, oil of eucalyptus and sodium carbonate.
3. In a waxing strip for Marcel irons, a fabric vehicle impregnated with a composition of refined beeswax, oil of eucalyptus and sodiun'i carbonate in substantially the following proportions:
Parts by weight. Oil of eucalyptus 10 Refined beeswax 85 Sodium carbonate 5 In testimony whereof we affix our signa-
