The object of the invention is to protect the eyes, face and clothing from the chemicals used in tinting, dyeing or shampooing hair. It is to be used principally by women who want to tint or dye their hair at home. 'Ihe window makes it possible for the individual to see what he or she is doing. It is also to be used by men Who do not want to go to a beauty shop and by children who do not want shampoo in their eyes. The sponge insert absorbs the chemicals before they reach the eyes. 'Ihe fabric cape made of cotton, dacron, nylon, etc. prevents the dyes from getting on clothes or dripping to the oor. 'Ihis would not be practical made entirely of plastic because plastic is too hot and does not prevent dyes from dripping to the oor as it is not absorbent. It is hand washable.
'Ihis device is diierent from other devices in that it ts just below the hairline above the eyes while other devices fasten around the neck. When other devices are used, another person must apply the chemicals, but with a Tint-at- Home Protector, one can tint his own hair without fear of getting the chemicals in eyes or on clothes. It is diierent in that it has an insert in the headband of sponge or other absorbent material and the transparent Window.

'Ihe numbers in the drawing are assigned as follows:
(1) Fabric cape or covering (2) Transparent window (3) Headband (4) 'Ihe insert of sponge or other absorbent material (5) 'Ihe elastic pieces in headband (6) Ties (7) Opening in back (8) Opening on sides to provide freedom of movement of arms.
FIG. 1 is a front view of a Tint-at-Home Protector showing fabric covering or cape 1, the transparent window 2 and the headband 3. Within the headband 3 is the 2,987,730 Patented June 13, 1961 Pice 2 insert of sponge or other absorbent material 4 located above the window 2 protecting eyes, face and clothes.
FIG. 2 is a side view of the device showing headband 3, elastic piece 5, tie in back 6, opening at side of cape 8 to allow for freedom of movement of arms.

'Ihis protecting device for tinting, dyeing, or shampooing hair is inexpensive in construction. It will be understood that the drawing and description are to be considered as illustrative on the broader claims appended hereto, and that various changes in design, structure, and fabrics may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or of the appended claims.
I claim:
