Description

    RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • The present disclosure is a non-provisional conversion of, and thus claims priority to, U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62/527,268, filed Jun. 30, 2017, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety for all purposes.
  • TECHNICAL FIELD
  • The present invention relates to waxing strips. More particularly, and not by way of limitation, the present invention is directed to a system, apparatus and method for use for an improved waxing system having strip(s) with incorporated reinforcement and removal mechanisms to allow for remote removal force to be applied when removing the waxing strip from the body.
  • BACKGROUND
  • Waxing is one of the most popular methods of hair removal throughout the world, and has many different variants and varieties, such as Brazilian or bikini waxes. However, there are still significant problems for persons that desire to remove unwanted body hair. One is the cost of getting a professional wax at a salon, and another is the inability to reach specific spots of the body if the person is attempting to perform the waxing themselves. For others, there is the embarrassment of having others perform the waxing procedure for them. For example, some people are embarrassed to have even a professional perform a Brazilian wax on them due to the intimacy of the procedure, but would do it themselves if they had a waxing strip that would allow them to easily and more effectively remove the waxing strip. Alternatively, for persons with hair on their back, it is difficult to place and remove waxing strips in certain spots, and thus typically requires another person to place and remove the waxing strip from those locations.
  • It would be advantageous to have a system, apparatus and method for use as an improved waxing strip that overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art. The present invention provides such a system and method.
  • SUMMARY
  • To address the deficiencies found in the prior art, the disclosed principles provide an improved waxing apparatus or waxing strips, and related waxing methods, that incorporate a reinforced attachment device to allow a cord or other mechanical reaching attachment to be attached thereto, and thus provide additional reach and leverage to the removal of the waxing strip.
  • Thus, in one aspect, the disclosed principles are directed to persons attempting self-waxing in hard to reach areas. For example, a person attempting to wax their back, legs or intimate area(s).
  • In another aspect, the disclosed principles are directed to women, and in particular those that are pregnant so they can continue to perform self-waxing procedures throughout their pregnancy.
  • In one embodiment, a body waxing system for removing body hair in accordance with the disclosed comprises at least one waxing strip each comprising at least one waxing side and at least one attachment area located proximate an attachment end of each waxing strip. The at least one waxing side may be configured to receive waxing material thereon to remove body hair. This embodiment of the waxing system may also comprise at least one attachment device located in a corresponding at least one attachment area. In addition, such an embodiment may further comprise at least one removal device coupled to a corresponding at least one attachment device and configured for grasping by a user to remove the at least one waxing strip from a body during hair removal.
  • In another embodiment, a body waxing system for removing body hair may comprise two waxing strips each comprising a waxing side and at least one attachment area located proximate an attachment end of each waxing strip. Each such waxing side may be positioned adjacent to one another and have waxing material thereon to remove body hair. In such embodiments, the system may also comprise at least one attachment device located in a corresponding at least one attachment area of each waxing strip. Such embodiments may also comprise at least one removal device coupled to a corresponding at least one attachment device of each waxing strip. Each such removal device may thus be configured for grasping by a user to remove a corresponding waxing strip from a body during hair removal.
  • Numerous embodiments and advantages associated with each such embodiment are discussed in further detail below.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • Various embodiments of the disclosed principles will now be described for the system, apparatus, and method of use for an improved waxing strip in accordance with the disclosed principles. Through one or more various aspects, embodiments and/or specific features, the present disclosure is intended to bring out one or more of the advantages that will be evident from the description. The present disclosure makes reference to one or more specific embodiments by way of illustration and example. It is understood, therefore, that the terminology, examples, drawings and embodiments are illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. The scope of the present disclosure includes any feature or combination of features disclosed herein (either explicitly or implicitly), or any generalization thereof, whether or not it mitigates any or all of the problems addressed herein. Accordingly, new claims may be formulated during prosecution of this application (or an application claiming priority thereto) to any such combination of features. In particular, with reference to the appended claims, features from dependent claims may be combined with those of the independent claims and features from respective independent claims may be combined in any appropriate manner and not merely in the specific combinations enumerated in the appended claims.
  • FIG. 1 shows one embodiment of an improved waxing system 100 in accordance with the disclosed principles. The waxing system 100 is comprised of at least one waxing strip 102, and for each such waxing strip according to the disclosed principles, at least one non-waxing surface or side 104, at least one layer of waxing material 106, at least one attachment area, which may comprises a reinforced edge 108, at least one reinforced void 110 along the at least one reinforced edge 108, and at least one removal mechanism 112 are provided in this embodiment.
  • The at least one waxing strip 102 typically has a waxing side (not shown) and a non-waxing side 104. However, it should be noted that in alternative embodiments multiple waxing strips could be placed together in such a manner that certain waxing strips within the layers of strips would have two waxing sides and no non-waxing side 104. The waxing strip 102 should be thick enough to be able to withstand a strong ripping or pulling force from a user attempting to remove hair once the waxing strip 102 is applied to the body part. Additionally, the waxing strip 102 should be flexible enough to be able to bend and flex along at least three axis. Thus, the waxing strip 102 can be placed in virtually any position along a user's skin surface, and/or the hair along that skin surface.
  • The waxing side of a waxing strip 102 will have a waxing material 106 located thereon for the removal of hair. More specifically, the waxing material has a consistency and/or composition configured to, and sufficient for, removing the body hair desired to be removed by the waxing process. The waxing materials 106 could include, but is not limited to, a wax, a non-permanent glue, a non-permanent adhesive, or other non-adhering material, such as hair removing materials/products such as brand names Nair®, Veet®, or non-adhesive hair removal products made by other companies. Thus, it should be understood that the waxing material 106 is not required to remove hair by adhering to the hair, and thus any material capable of removing body hair. The non-waxing side 104 of the waxing strip 102 is configured so that the user can press the waxing side firmly against the skin, and/or the hair along the skin of a user by pressing on the non-waxing side 104 without touching any waxing material. However, in other embodiments, a waxing strip in accordance with the disclosed principles may include waxing material on both opposing surfaces, if desired.
  • The waxing strip 102 in this embodiment includes an attachment area located at one end of the waxing strip 102. In this particular illustrated embodiment, the attachment area comprises a reinforced edge 108. The reinforced edge 108 allows for a reinforcement of the attachment edge of the waxing strip 102, and thus provides a user with a portion of the waxing strip 102 to hold when applying a ripping or pulling force to remove the hair from the skin. It should be understood that the reinforced edge 108 could be along one or more edges/ends of the waxing strip 102. For example, one embodiment of a waxing system in accordance with the disclosed principles may comprises two attachment ends, which may be located on opposing ends of the waxing strip. Additionally, the two attachment ends may also be comprised of two opposing reinforced edges 108. Still further, another alternative embodiment may have four attachment ends, one or more with a reinforced edge 108, for a rectilinear-shaped waxing strip that may be pulled via any of such attachment ends and/or reinforced edges.
  • The reinforced edge(s) 108 also provide an attachment device or devices in the attachment area. In this embodiment, the waxing system 200 again includes reinforced voids 110 placed in the reinforced edge 108 as the attachment device. These reinforced voids 110 can again comprise grommets, washers, welded washers, metal, plastic, wood, or any form of material or combination thereof that would be an increase in strength over the material comprising the reinforced edge 108. In other embodiments, the reinforced voids may simply be located within the attachment ends of the waxing strip if no reinforced edge is provided. In addition, the reinforced voids 110 may simply be provided by the type of material used to form the outer attachment end(s) of the waxing strip 102. In some embodiments, it would be understood that the reinforced voids 110 would be hollow rings that would allow a removal mechanism 112 to be attached to the waxing strip 102.
  • As illustrated, the removal device or mechanism 112 may be attached to the waxing strip 102 through the reinforced voids 110. In other embodiments, there are no reinforced voids 110 on the waxing strip 102, and instead the removal mechanism 112 is embedded or otherwise integrated into at least a portion of the waxing strip 102 or is even an elongated part of the waxing strip 102. The removal mechanism 112 may be comprised of string, rope, nylon, fabric material, metal material, or synthetic materials forms into a flexible string or cord like design, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the removal mechanism 112 may be only semi-flexible such that it partially or fully holds its form before being manipulated by a user. In such embodiments, the semi-flexible removal device 112 may be easier to handle by a user as it can hold its shape, and thus its position, during the waxing process, and thus may be easier to blindly find and thereby grasp for placing and/or pulling the waxing strip 102. For example, such a semi-rigid removal device 112 may be similar to the semi-rigidity of a wire clothes hanger. Additionally, the removal device 112 may be rigid and thus inflexible, and thus similarly operable as a semi-flexible or semi-rigid removal mechanism 112. Still further, the removal mechanism 112 may be removably coupled to the waxing strip 102. In such embodiments, the removal mechanism may itself be removed in situations where its use is not needing during a waxing process.
  • FIG. 2 shows an alternative embodiment of an improved waxing system 200 in accordance with the disclosed principles. The improved waxing system 200 is comprised of at least one waxing strip 202, and for each waxing strip at least one non-waxing side 204, at least one layer of waxing material 206, at least one reinforced edge 208, at least one attachment device, such as a reinforced void 210, along the at least one attachment area that may comprise a reinforced edge 208, and at least one removal mechanism 212 may be provided.
  • The at least one waxing strip 202 typically has a waxing side (not shown) and a non-waxing side 204. However, it should be noted that in alternative embodiments multiple waxing strips could be placed together in such a manner that certain waxing strips would have two waxing sides and no non-waxing side 204 for the inner layers of such stack of strips. Additionally, the waxing strip 202 could be a bare waxing strip with no waxing material 206, where the wax used for the waxing process is heated and applied and the bare strip 202 pressed onto the heated wax for eventual pulling of the strip. The waxing strip 202 should be thick enough to be able to withstand a strong ripping or pulling force from a user attempting to remove hair. The waxing strip 202 should be flexible enough to be able to bend and flex along at least three axis. Thus, the waxing strip 202 can be placed in virtually any position along a user's skin surface, and/or the hair along that skin surface.
  • The waxing side of a waxing strip 202 may include a waxing material 206 for the removal of hair. As mentioned above, it may also be a bare strip 202 where the wax is first placed on the body and the strip 202 placed over the wax. The waxing materials 206 could include, but is not limited to, a wax, a non-permanent glue, a non-permanent adhesive, or other products that could include other hair removal projects such as those disclosed above. The non-waxing side 204 of the waxing strip 202 is designed so that the user can press the waxing side firmly against the skin, and/or the hair along the skin of a user without contacting the wax material 206.
  • The reinforced edge 208 provided at the attachment area allows for a reinforcement of an end of the waxing strip 202 and also provides a user with a portion of the waxing strip 202 to hold when applying a ripping or pulling force to remove the hair from the skin. It should be understood that the reinforced edge 208 could be along one or more edges of the waxing strip 202. For example, one embodiment may have two opposing reinforced edges 208, while an alternative embodiment may have four reinforced edges 208 for the waxing strip 202.
  • The reinforced edge(s) 208 also provide an area for an attachment device, such as the illustrated reinforced voids 210, to be placed. As before, these reinforced voids 210 can comprise grommets, washers, welded washers, metal, plastic, wood, or any form of material or combination thereof that would be an increase in strength over the reinforced edge 208. In some embodiments, it should be understood that the reinforced voids 210 could be hollow rings that would allow a removal mechanism 212 to be attached to the waxing strip 202.
  • The removal mechanism 212 may be attached to the waxing strip 202 through the reinforced voids 210. The removal mechanism 212 can be comprised of string, rope, nylon, fabric material, metal material, or synthetic materials forms into a string or cord like design, or any combination thereof. Alternatively, the removal mechanism may be integrated with, or simply be a part of, the waxing strip 202. The reinforced voids 210 along with the removal mechanism 212 allows for a remote pulling or ripping removal force to be applied. In some embodiments, the removal mechanism 212 may be only semi-flexible such that it partially or fully holds its form before being manipulated by a user. In such embodiments, the semi-flexible removal device 212 may be easier to handle by a user as it can hold its shape, and thus its position, during the waxing process, and thus may be easier to blindly find and thereby grasp for placing and/or pulling the waxing strip 202. For example, such a semi-rigid removal device 212 may be similar to the semi-rigidity of a wire clothes hanger. Additionally, the removal device 212 may be rigid and thus inflexible, and thus similarly operable as a semi-flexible or semi-rigid removal mechanism 212. Still further, the removal mechanism 212 may be removably coupled to the waxing strip 202. In such embodiments, the removal mechanism 212 may itself be removed in situations where its use is not needing during a waxing process.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates yet another embodiment of an improved waxing system 300 in accordance with the disclosed principles. This embodiment of the improved waxing system 300 is comprised of at least two waxing strips 302, and again for each waxing strip 302 at least one non-waxing side 304, at least one layer of waxing material 306, at least one attachment area which may comprise a reinforced edge 308, at least one attachment device such as a reinforced void 310 along the at least one reinforced edge 308, and at least one removal mechanism 312 may be included.
  • The at least two waxing strips 302 each typically have a waxing side 305 and a non-waxing side 304. However, it can be noted that in alternative embodiments multiple waxing strips could be placed together in such a manner that certain waxing strips would have two waxing sides and no non-waxing side 304, as described above. Alternatively, there could also be embodiments where there is no waxing material 306 on the waxing strips 302, and thus all the waxing strips have two non-waxing sides 304, and thus the wax is applied to the body initially with the strip 302 placed over the wax thereafter.
  • Each waxing strip 302 should be thick enough to be able to withstand a strong ripping or pulling force from a user attempting to remove hair. Also, the waxing strips 302 should be flexible enough to be able to bend and flex in at least three distinct directions. As with all embodiments, elongated waxing strips 302 provide additional leverage for pulling in either direction along the length of the strips. Thus, each waxing strip 302 can be placed in virtually any position along a user's skin surface, and/or the hair along that skin surface. Each waxing strip 302 can be made from plastics, foils, paper, wax paper, synthetic materials in a paper form, and/or any combination thereof.
  • The waxing strips 302 may have a waxing material 306 on the waxing side 305 of each waxing strip 302 for the removal of hair. The waxing materials 306 could include, but is not limited to, a wax, a non-permanent glue, a non-permanent adhesive, or other products that are formulated for hair removal. The non-waxing side 304 of the waxing strip 302 is designed so that the user can press the waxing side firmly against the skin, and/or the hair along the skin of a user without requiring the user to touch any waxing material 306 directly. In alternative embodiments, the waxing materials 306 could also be a standalone product that is placed on the skin and/or hair by the user who then places a bare waxing strip 302 over the on skin and/or hair waxing materials 306. In this illustrated embodiment of a waxing system 300, two waxing strips 302 are provided with their respective waxing sides 305 facing each, and with waxing material provided therebetween. This system 300 advantageously allows the two waxing strips 302 to be held prior to use without any unwanted contact with such waxing material 306. When being readied for use, a user can pull the two waxing strips 302 apart from one another, thereby exposing the waxing material 306 on each strip's waxing side 305. Then each waxing strip 302 may be employed separately.
  • The attachment area of each waxing strip 302 again includes a reinforced edge 308, which allows for a reinforcement of the waxing strip 302 and also provides a user with a portion of the waxing strip 302 to hold when applying a ripping or pulling force to remove the hair from the skin. It should be understood that the reinforced edge 308 could be along one or more edges of the waxing strip 302. For example, one embodiment may have two opposing reinforced edges 308, while an alternative embodiment may have four reinforced edges 308 for the waxing strip 302. This would allow users to rip or pull on the waxing strip 302 from a plurality of angles. For example, a user wishing to wax their legs would be able to stand up and pull from a standing position, gaining more leverage and therefore experiencing an easier waxing experience.
  • The reinforced edge(s) 308 also provide an attachment device, which in this embodiment are again provide as reinforced voids 310, to be placed. These reinforced voids 310 may again comprise grommets, washers, welded washers, metal, plastic, wood, or any form of material or combination thereof that would maintain or be an increase in strength over the reinforced edge 308. In some embodiments, it would be understood that the reinforced voids 310 could be hollow rings that would allow a removal mechanism 312 to be attached to the waxing strip 302. In such embodiments, the removal mechanism 312 would be attached to the waxing strip 302 through the reinforced voids 310.
  • The removal mechanism 312 can be comprised of string, rope, nylon, fabric material, metal material, or synthetic materials forms into a string or cord like design, or any combination thereof. Alternatively, the removal mechanism 312 may be integrated with, or simply be a part of, their respective waxing strip 302. In some embodiments, the removal mechanisms 312 may be only semi-flexible such that it partially or fully holds its form before being manipulated by a user. In such embodiments, the semi-flexible removal device 212 may be easier to handle by a user as it can hold its shape, and thus its position, during the waxing process, and thus may be easier to blindly find and thereby grasp for placing and/or pulling the waxing strips 302. For example, such a semi-rigid removal device 312 may be similar to the semi-rigidity of a wire clothes hanger. Additionally, the removal devices 312 may be rigid and thus inflexible, and thus similarly operable as a semi-flexible or semi-rigid removal mechanism 312. Still further, the removal mechanisms 312 may each be removably coupled to their respective waxing strip 302. In such embodiments, either or both of the removal mechanisms 312 may be removed in situations where its use is not needing during a waxing process.
  • The removal mechanisms 312 allow a user to more easily reach and remove the waxing strip with the necessary force to result in an effective waxing. One example would be a person desiring to wax their back, which has locations that are hard to reach for some users, and thus require an extension from the waxing strip 302 (i.e., the removal mechanism 312 of the disclosed principles) in order to pull and thereby remove the waxing strip 302. Further examples of this would include a user, and in particular a pregnant user, wishing to perform a waxing procedure and is either unable to place or provide sufficient force to remove a waxing strip. The removal mechanism 312 in combination with the reinforced edges 308 and/or reinforced voids 310 would allow the user to pull the waxing strip with sufficient force and/or leverage to successfully perform a waxing procedure. In still other embodiments, the two waxing strips 302 may be joined at an end opposite to the reinforced edges 308. In such embodiments, once the waxing sides 305 of the two strips 302 are pulled apart from one another, the strips 302 remain attached together, thereby providing a single, long waxing strip. A user may then employ the two removal mechanisms 312, one in each hand, to manipulate the location and removal of the single, long waxing strip with respect to their body in a hair removal procedure.
