Description
A. S. CARLIN Nov. 22, 1949 HAIR CURLER Filed April 22, 1947 y 5 4 z w. L M 19/- RE 0 H W F m1/114 .v s E N Patented Nov. 22, 1949 UNITED STATES FATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
The present invention relates to improvements in hair curlers for permanent waving known as the cold wave process.
An important object of the invention is to provide in a device of the above character improved means for keeping the formed curl away from the scalp in order that the solution employed in setting the curl will not contact the scalp, thereby eliminating any cause for irritation. This is especially important when the hair on the head is thin.
Another object is to provide improved means for initially connecting the curling device to the lock of hair preparatory to winding the lock on the curling portion and subsequently using such connecting means to secure the ends of the lock strands in a fixed relation after the curling operation has been performed.
Another and more specific object is to provide as an article of manufacture a hair curling cylinder, and twisted lengths of insulated wire projecting from opposite ends of the cylinder whose raw ends are concealed within the cylinder.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a hair curler of the type described which may be, upon sterilization, used over and over again.
Yet a further object of the invention is to provide a hair curler by means of which the hair may be curled using the cold wave process in an improved manner.
Other objects, features and advantages of invention will hereinafter appear.
Referring to the drawings wherein is shown a preferred embodiment of the invention,
Fig. 1 is an elevational View of the coated Wire per se.
Fig. 2 is an elevational view similar to Fig. 1 except that the folded portions in Fig. 1 are shown twisted in Fig. 2.
Fig. 3 is an elevational view of the improved curler wherein the raw ends of the wires shown in Fig. 2 are, with adjacent portions of the twisted loops, concealed within a hair curling tube.
Figs. 4-8 are elevational views showing the consecutive steps involved in a hair curling operation.
Referring in detail to the drawing, the single strand of wire it in Fig. l is bent or folded upon itself at one side of its midlength portion to provide a folded portion I l and each of the free end portions of the wire Ill is bent or folded upon itfolded parts l2 and I3 are twisted to form respectively twisted lengths i5 and It.
11 indicates a hair curling sleeve or cylinder into which the twisted length It is projected and then pulled through to securely position the raw ends Ilia and lfib of the wire it in a concealed friction-like manner near the midlength of the sleeve to prevent the head of the person having her hair curled from being injured. Said raw ends tend to bite into said sleeve and securely hold the wire structure against sliding out therefrom.
The first operational step, as shown in Fig. 4, consists in placing the lock of hair [8 in the crotch 19 formed by the wire runs it and It at the upper end of the sleeve and then twisting said runs together to hold the sleeve in position adjacent the lock is preparatory to winding the latter around the sleeve.
The second step in the operation of curling, as shown in Fig. 5, consists in spirally winding the lock of hair l8 around the sleeve I1 and holding the loose end by the little finger 2S preparatory to placing wool crepe around the ends of the look.
The third step in the operation of curling, as shown in Fig. 6, consists in winding the wool crepe 2| around the loose strands of hair at the end of the lock incident to untwisting the short twisted length Hi from the long twisted length I5 for the purpose of freeing the latter length so that it may be bent downwardly and have its free end portion wound around the crepe wool 2!.
The fourth step in the operation of curling, as shown in Fig. '7, consists in untwisting the short twisted length is from the long twisted length I5 and then bending the long length it downwardly and coiling the free end 22 thereof around the crepe wool 2| to keep the formed curl from uncurling. Thereupon the short length 15 is directed downwardly along the side of the uncurled part of the lock of hair to prevent the sheath ll from turning in a direction tending to uncurl the lock of hair.
The fifth step (an optional step) in the operation of curling, as shown in Fig. 8, consists in bending the twisted length it toward the subjects head thus forming a prop for supporting the sleeve il in an outwardly spaced relation to the head to keep the curling solution from contacting the scalp. When this is done the wire I l should have its terminal portion deflected at 25 to prevent the end of the wire from irritating the scalp.
After the time alloted for the curl on the sleeve to be permanently set the wire end 22 is unwound from the wool crepe 2|, the wool crepe removed, and the device detached from the curl.
I claim:
1. In a device for cold wave hair curling, a sleeve upon which to spirally wind the hair, a folded length of wire whose end portions are in turn folded back part way upon themselves to form two folded over portions which are opposite said single folded over portion, said single folded over portion and said two folded over portions being twisted throughout their lengths to form two twisted lengths which are opposite the single twisted length all of which combine to form an article having a Y shape, the raw ends of the wire being located at a point adjacent the crotch in the Y, said Y shape extends into said sleeve to a point wherein said raw ends are concealed within and tend to bite into said sleeve, thus internally anchoring the wire structure to said sleeve.
2. In a device for cold wave hair curling, a folded length of single wire whose end portions are in turn folded back part way upon themselves to form two folded over portions of unequal length which are at that end of the structure which is opposite to said folded over single wire portion, said foldedover single wire portion and said two folded over portions being twisted throughout their lengths to form two twisted lengths which are opposite to the single twisted length, all of which combine to form an article having a Y shape wherein the stem of the Y consists of a single pair of twisted together wire runs.
