rl`his invention relates to hair winders and has particular reference to a device which may be used in conjunction with al hair curling rod, whereby the hair can be 5 Wound more uniformly and tightly than has been possible by the methods heretofore employed in the process of hair dressing commonly known as permanent Waving.

dfn the present methods of hair winding,

1o the hair is Wound and held in place by the fingers during the Winding operation so that the unformity and the degree of tightness of the Winding is dependent solely upon the skill of the operator andusually lltakes considerable time when donecarefully.

Among the advantages of the hair Winder of this invention is that the Winding of hair may be done rapidly and uniformly by a relatively unskilled operator, and so that the proper degree of tightness is uniormly maintained for each turn of the lock of hair around the curling rod. This advantage is eiected by a proper degree of friction between the Winder and the curling rod, whereby an even tension upon the hair is maintained during the Winding operai tion.

Another important advantage of the new device is found in the process of dressing short or bobbed-hair, in that the Winder maybe left upon the tip of the curling rod after the hair has been completely Wound ,upon it so as to act as a clip for the ends of the strands of hair, thus eliminating the use of a separate clip for that purpose.

The new hair Winder consists substan` ltially of a sleeve adapted to cooperate with a curling rod, and which is provided with 4o -a projecting member under which the lock of hair is introduced and thus held between it and the curling rod, and, as the Winder is subsequently moved With a spiral motion in either direction along the curling rod, the hair is smoothed as it is uniformly and tightly coiled around the latter.

For a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is e. Vlw of the hair Winder of this invention mounted upon the curling rod, showing the beginning of the hair winding operation;

or nger forming a slot under which the lock of hair is passed so as to lodge in recess 3. Collar 4 is slidably mounted upon sleeve 1 and isadapted to t under nger 2 when advanced to grip the ends of the lock of hair in recess 3 when the Winding operation is completed.' As ,illustrated in Fig. 2 and by the cross-sectlon in Fig. 4, collar sleeve l is provided with a slot into which the guide pins 6 of collar 4 project. A spring friction clip 7 is attachedto sleeve 1 and en ages the outer surface of collar 4 so as to old it in position upon sleeve 1.k

The Winder sleeve A1 is fitted upon the curling rod and is provided with an internal spring 10 which is adapted to produce considerable friction between fthe 'Winder and the rod, so that a uniform tenpared in the usual manner, is passed through slot 9 in the end of rod 8, which is placed adjacent the scalp, and through the slot under hook 2 so as to lodge in tne recess 3 and thus be caught and heid between the top end of sleeve l and red 8 as is shown in Fig. 1. The operator then rotates' sleeve l With a spiral motion, in either dlrectlon,

and the lock of hair slips thro becoiled around rod 8 in as close a helix lsaid rod, means upon said ro sleeve for receivin upon said sleeve or gripping the hair to' 5oV or degree ofoverlap as may be desired.

against rod 8 Y,causes the lock of hair to be wound tightly around rod 8 when the sleeve l is moved along the latter with a spiral motion and at'the same time the inner surface of the upper portion of `sleeve 1 imf parts a smoothing action to the lock of hair as it is being wound b pressing it a inst rod 8 in the manner i ustrated by ig. 3. The tension` upon the hair may be adjusted at will by varyin the ressure of spring 10 u on rod 8. hen t e lock of hair is comp eteI wound upon curling rod 8, collar 4 is s 'd over sleeve l into the osition shown in Figs. 2 and 3', whereby t e ends of the'hair are forced and 'pped in recess 3 and the lock of hair is eld` as wound. The Winder may then be left in this ition upon rod-8 to serve as a clip for hol ing the endsof the hair in.p1ace during the remainder of the heatin and dressing operation. These hair win ers are adapted to be employed in plurality,.depend ing upon the number of locks of hair to bedressed, and

wit the scope of the appended claims.

I claim:
