Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hair comb or brush apparatus or set thereof or method for use in styling people's hair in a fashionable design.
  • the invention is related to improving handling of hair by a user or hair stylist but can be used by anyone—even children. It particularly relates to an improved comb but could include an improved brush or other hair implement.
  • Hair design by hairdressers and other hair stylists involves a wide range of methods.
  • One standard form is to apply a part to the hair by combing hairs to either side of a defined line.
  • that line has always been a straight part extending down the symmetrical centre of the head or along a parallel line to the symmetrical centre.
  • Another form is across the front of the head in order to define a front fringe area where the hair in front of the part line is combed down over the face above the eyes.
  • a hair styling comb including a moulded plastic or metal core member with a body part having first and second sets of integrally formed spaced apart comb teeth extending in directions substantially normal to each other.
  • the first set of teeth extends from an elongated spine part of the body and a layer of a resilient friction material is moulded over the body part to cover opposed planar surfaces of the body part and to extend within spaces between adjacent teeth of both sets.
  • the overmoulded layer provides surfaces between each tooth which are adherent to human hair comb to facilitate parting, back combing or ratting hair comb during a styling procedure.
  • a hair comb or brush comprising a substantially rigid member having, a body part adapted to be grasped by a person's hand, an elongated spine portion integral with the body part, and a first set of spaced apart teeth extending substantially parallel from the spine portion; and at least one line of substantially parallel teeth are aligned in a predetermined non-rectilinear pattern or configuration at the edge of the first set of spaced apart teeth wherein that pattern or configuration corresponds with a required non-rectilinear pattern or configuration of a required part in the hair such that in use the at least one line of aligned teeth are placed where the part is required and combed or brushed away from that line to leave the required part.
  • a set of at least two hair combs or brushes with each comprising a body part adapted to be grasped by a person's hand, a support portion connected or integral with the body part, and a first set of spaced apart teeth extending substantially parallel from the support portion; and the first comb or brush having an outer edge of its first set of spaced apart teeth aligned in a predetermined non-rectilinear pattern or configuration wherein that pattern or configuration corresponds with at least part of a required non-rectilinear pattern or configuration of a part in the hair and the second comb or brush having an outer edge of its respective first set of spaced apart teeth aligned in a predetermined non-rectilinear pattern or configuration wherein that pattern or configuration corresponds with at least part of a required non-rectilinear pattern or configuration of a part in the hair and wherein each of the set of hair combs or brushes are shaped to have their respective pattern or configuration corresponding to each other such that in use the respective
  • the invention also provides a method of preparing a non-linear part of the hair of a person including the steps of:
  • a set of at least two hair combs or brushes with each comprising a body part adapted to be grasped by a person's hand, a support portion connected or integral with the body part, and a first set of spaced apart teeth extending substantially parallel from the support portion; and an outer edge of its first set of spaced apart teeth aligned in a predetermined non-rectilinear pattern or configuration
  • Each of the set of two hair combs can have their respective outer edge of the first set of spaced apart teeth spaced relative to each other so that when the set of two hair combs or brushes are placed adjacently or in partially overlapping formation, the teeth are interleaved so as to jointly form a single line of spaced apart teeth that corresponds with the pattern or configuration of the required non-rectilinear pattern or configuration of part in the hair.
