Filed Oct. 23, 1929 Invenlar W/7\ g mm" @ZZZJ Patented Ma 16, 1933 P.a 'lne zlar OFFICE lemme M. HEMMINGsoN, or cUMBEnL NnwIscoNsIN HAIR WAVING APPARATUS Application filed October 23, rage. Serial K014101580.
This invention relates to improved apparatus and a new method for waving human hair and is particularly adapted for effect ng the so-called water waves, although not 11m- 6 ited to this usage alone.
At the present time, hair waving is generally effected by wetting the hair and then manipulating it with the fingers and applying a series of combs, one at a time, said 10. combs being inserted at an angle to the scalp to push portions of the hair toward the top of the head, producing waves. The combs are left in until the hair dries and sets in wave form. Usually where the method is not practiced by a skilled operator, the combs will work loose, due to the weight of the wet hair and will project outwardly and downwardly, causing the waves in the hair to straighten and to have less depth.
It is an object of my invention to provide an extremely simple but highly efiicient apparatus for successfully waving hair which will eliminate the objections above noted and which may be correctly applied without skill or training in the art of hair dressing.
A further object of my invention is to provide improved hair waving apparatus, wherein a series of comb devices may be independently inserted and adjusted in the hair as desired and securely held in place against the scalp and urged upwardly to produce well defined independent waves in the hair.
Another object is to provide simple hair waving apparatus which may be easily and quickly applied, which may be manufactured at low cost and by which the hair may be securely held in wave form and the combs positively retained against displacement while the hair is setting.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description made in connection with the accompanying drawing, wherein like reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views and wherein,
Fi 1 is a perspective view showing the application of the several elements of my apparatus before the same are drawn and set in waving position;
Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the apparatus operatively applied in position to wave the hair;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary cross sectional view I known in the hair dressing profession; and
with my apparatus applied thereto;
Fig. 5 is a front elevation of one of my retaining or end combs; and
Fig. 6 is a top plan view of the same.
As shown in the drawing, my improved apparatus includes a series of independent hair waving combs C, such as the usual water wave combs extensively used at this time, usually being longitudinally curved and often having tortuous teeth to more efficient ly retain the combs in the hair. These combs are inserted in the hair in the usual manner,
suchas shownin Fig. 1, being spaced the requisite distance apart and oftentimes arranged in staggered relation with the hair projecting oppositely and interlaced, as shown in Fig. 4. This forms a deeper wave and is often preferable to the application of the combs C, as shown in Fig. 3. 3
I provide a pair of retaining combs 7, which are disposed at the lower ends of the hair to be waved, these combs being similar -1I1 general'shape and structure to the combs C, but being provided with a series of apertures 7a or other attachment means along.
their backs. A series of strings 8 or other suitable elongated flexible members are secured to the apertured portions 7a of the retaining combs 7 and are of sufiicient length to more than reach from the ends of the hair at the sides of the head to the top of the head.
These retaining combs are inserted adjacent the ends of the hair at the sides and if desired in the rear portion of the head, as illustrated in the drawing, and the hair between thev several combs C and between the combs C and a pair of combs inserted with the teeth tral strings are then tightened and the ends tied together at the top of the head. The corresponding strings of the two retaining combs are then pulled upwardly and crossed; at the top of the head and tied in the manner similar to that previously described.
neoacvv of said terminal combs extending upwardly, each of said terminal combs carrying a series of spaced flexible tying elements secured to the backs thereof, the corresponding ends of said two series being adapted to be drawn tightly over the back edges of said independent. combs and tied together whereby said series of disconnected combs will be "drawn inwardly toward the scalp to wave the hair. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
' MINNIE'M. HEMMINGSON.
It will be noticed that the pulling and tying of the several corresponding strings tends to lift and securely set the end combs 7 and furthermore draws the independent combs C inwardly and retains the same in position against the scalp, as shown in Figs. 2, 3'and A. The hair is thus securely held in wave form and the combs urged inwardly and upwardly in proper position to produce independent waves. It will be apparent that the weight of the hair or movement of the head cannot displace the combs or the position of i the waves. r
The several combs may obviously be set at any desired position with refercnce'to the hair and may nevertheless be engaged by the flexible members 8 and securely held in place.
It will be seen that my apparatus may be equally well applied where the combs'are set in the manner illustrated in Fig. 4, the 'retaining combs being interlaced with adjacent independent combs C and the strings 8 engaging the-backs of the several combs and being pulled tightly thereabout and tied at the top of the head. i
From the foregoing description it will be apparent that I have provided simple and efficient apparatus which may be easily-and quickly applied to successfully produce waves in human hair and to positively hold the hair and comb elements in proper position while the hair is setting or drying.-
It will be seen that my new method includes the independent application of a series of combs to the hair and the upward and in ward urging of said combs by means of flexible members overlying and engaging the back edges of the combs and adjustably secured about the top of the head.
What is claimed is: In hair waving apparatus, a series of-independent disconnected combs provided with elongated back edges adapted to be disposed in a head of hair, some'on one side of-the top of the scalp and some on the opposite side, with their teeth directed upwardly, a pair of terminal combs adapted to be applied to the hair, one at each side of the head and
