It has been found that the use of this device not only serves to shield the face and ears of the wearer but also effects a quicker drying of the hair. The device is thus particularly suitable for persons who cannot stand the higher heat of the hair drier since the use of the shield enables the drying of the hair within a reasonable length of time with the drier at low heat. Heretofore this was not possible.
Although the invention has been particular shown and described, it is contemplated that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the invention asidefined in the appended claims.
Iclaim:
1. A shield adapted to be worn about the head to protect the face and ears of the wearer from a draft of hot air from a hair-drying machine or the like, comprising a band-like body formed of flexible, semi-stiff paper adapted to retain its shape, said body having a centrally disposed curved forehead section having a relatively narrow upright base portion adjacent the lower margin adapted to engage the head of a wearer and a relatively wide upwardly and outwardly flared portion above the base portion, a pair of ear sections disposed at the ends of said forehead section, said ear sections each extending laterally beyond the planes of the margins of said forehead section and including a lower portion inclined upwardly and outwardly from its lower margin and an upper inwardly overhanging portion inclined downwardly and outwardly from its upper margin to join said lower portion whereby an earreceiving recess is formed, and a pair of straps extending rearwardly of said ear sections, said straps being adapted to be disposed in overlapping adjusted relation behind the head of a wearer whereby the same may be secured by a fastener or the like.
, 2. A device as defined in claim 1 in which the forehead section and the pair of straps are inclined upwardly from the regions where the same join the ear sections.
3. A shield adapted to be worn about the head comprising a band-like body formed of flexible, semi-stiff, paper-like material, said body terminating in a pair of curved straps adapted to be 4 secured by a fastener or the like in adjusted overlapping relation behind the neck or head of the wearer, said body having a centrally disposed elongated curved forehead section adapted to extend around the forehead of the wearer, said forehead section including a base portion comprising an area of limited lateral extent at its lower margin adapted to fit against the head of the wearer, the remainder of said forehead section being shaped to extend upwardly and away i from the base portion and the head of the wearer when worn, and a pair of ear sections positioned between the forehead section and the respective straps, said ear sections each being of greater lateral extent than the remainder of said body and being shapedrto provide a lower portion inclined from its lower margin upwardly and outwardly and an upper overhanging portion having a convex margin and being inclined downwardly and outwardly therefrom to said main portion whereby an ear-receiving recess is provided.
4. A shield adapted to be worn about the head comprising a band-like body formed of flexible, semi-stiff, paper-like material, said body terminating in a pair of curved straps adapted to be secured by a fastener or the like in adjusted overlapping relation behind the neck or head of the wearer, said body having a centrally disposed elongated curved forehead section adapted to extend around the forehead of the wearer and upwardly and outwardly thereof, and a pair of ear sections positioned between the forehead section and the respective straps, said ear sections each being of greater lateral extent than the remainder of said body and being shaped to provide a lower portion inclined upwardly and outwardly from its lower margin and an upper inwardly overhanging portion inclined downwardly and outwardly from its upper margin to join said lower portion whereby an ear receiving recess is formed.
