HAIR WAVER.
Application filed November This invention relates particularly to Marcel wavers of the general type covered in my Patent #1,64l6,173 of October 18th, 192? and special objects of the inventlon are to provide a hair waving form which will be particularly light and flexible so that.
it may be worn with comfort and readily adapted to the head of the user.
Other important objects of the invention are to provide a hair waving device of of simple, inexpensive construction and which can be readily adjusted to tension the hair sufliciently to produce the flat wave Marcel effect.
The foregoing and other desirable objects are attained in a preferred embodiment of 'tllG invention by making the hair waving form of flexible, covered wire, arrangedwith two strands in substantial parallelism to provide a body or back member, the respective strands having transverse loops projecting at the opposite sides of the body and the whole being bendable to tension and secure a lock of hair laced across the back and about the loops.
Other novel features of the invention will appear as the specification proceeds.
in the accompanying drawing certain practical commercial embodiments of the invention are'illustrated, but it is to be understood that the structure may be varied without departure from the true spirit and broad scope of the invention.
Figure 1 is a plan view of the waver in its substantially flat form.
igure 2 is perspective view showing the transverse fingers of the waver bent to tension the lock of hair and the upper end of the waver bent back to secure the upper end of the lock.
Figure 3 is a plan View showing the waver made up of a single continuous piece of wire and with the body of it held together by a wrapping instead of clips as in Figure 1.
The two strands ofwire which form the back-bone and the transverse ribs or fingers of the device are designated 5, 6, and are shown each as a flexible metal wire 7 of copper iron or the like, enclosed in a suitable covering 8 of insulating or fibrous material. These two strands of covered wire are secured together in substantial parallelism by encircling metallic clips such as indicated at 9 in Figures 1 and 2, by a wrapping of tape 10 or the like, as in Figure 3,
or by other suitable securing means. and each 10, 1927. Serial No. 232,234.
strand is formed with outwardly projecting double loops ll'arranged with the loops at one side staggered in relation to the loops at the opposite side of the structure.
In the first form of the invention shown, a sutficient number of the metallic clips are employed to hold these loops and the backbone of the device in shape and the wrapping of tape performs this same function in the second form of the invention illustrated. If desired, adhesive means may be employed for securing the wires in this preformed relation.
7 The straight lengths of wire at the ends of the device are bendable independently of the ribs or prongs to form'fiexible clips such as indicated at 12 in Figure 2, to secure the opposite ends of the lock of hair.
In some cases it is advantageous to construct the device of a single continuous length of wire, instead of two separate lengths, in which event the wire may be doubled upon itself at one end as indicated at 13 in Figure 3, the ends of the single length of wire being then secured togetherby a simple wrapping of wire or the like, as indicated at 14. I
In use, the device may be applied to a lock of hair by bending the upper end of the waver over the lock, close to the head, after which the hair may be laced in under the alternate prongs and across the back of the device, the free end of the lock being then secured by bending the lower end of the device back over the lock in the same manner that the upper end was bent. The ribs or prongs may then be squeezed together more or less to tighten the hair and place a certain amount of tension on the same. The waver may be allower to remain in place over night, or as long as necessary, its flexibility preventing any injury to the wearer and holding-the locks confined under tension in a wave-like form. The device is released from the hair by simple bending back the flexible end clips.
The securing of the two strands or lengths of wire alongside each other in substantial parallelism provides a relatively flat wide body and the covering on the wire forms a cushion, frictionally holding the hair and affording curved edges over which the hair will bend Without breaking or other injury. These features in combination produce a true-fiat wave Marcel effect, as distinguished from an ordinary curl.
T he device is durable and relatively inexpensive, If the covering of the Wirehas a braided outer sheath as in the constructions illustrated, this braid exerts a frictional grip ping eflect, aiding in securing the'hair and holding it under tension. The tape Wrapping may be used alone or applied over the binding clips 9. For this purpose an elastic adhesive tape has been employed Which can bestretched tightly and. smoothly over andabout the two Wires-and-Which seals itself in place by-its adhesive character. In shaping and securing the Wires-in their side by side relation, the portionsof the Wire inter mediate the-loops. iorrncurved arches 15 which aid in giving the ClGSlI'GCl'WELVG11301116" hair.
