SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)
BACKGROUND
Hair foam sponges’ brushes are a popular product. There are different types of sponge brushes on the market today. These foam sponge brushes assist with curling or twisting hair. However, the foam sponge brushes that is on the market takes 5 to 45 minutes to achieve any sort of results. Conventional foam brushes are typically flatsurfaced and have bore holes to assist with starting dread locks and natural curls. However, the process is lengthy and almost useless, as conventional hair foam brushes are flat and of soft in texture. The design is what causes so much time to be spent trying to achieve the starting of dread locks and/or curls.
The market has double-sided sponge brushes with different textures to help create different curl or coil patterns. If the user needs to apply both sides, this can be time consuming and very messy.
Therefore, there is a need for a device that can efficiently and easily achieve the starting of dread locks and/or curls. The present invention accomplishes these objectives.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present device is hair styling tool that includes a base member with a body pad attached to the base member. The body pad can be a foam brush member with a
2
SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)
plurality of holes formed therein. A plurality of hair shapers can be disposed in the holes of the body pad.
The hair shapers can extend outward from respective ones of the plurality of holes. In some embodiments, the hair shapers can be formed in equatorial rows across the body pad. In some embodiments, one or more centrally located rows of the plurality of equatorial rows can be shorter than outermost located rows of the plurality of equatorial rows. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the plurality of hair shapers have ends cut at an angle, where the angle could be cut a central equatorial axis of the body pad. In some embodiments, the hair shapers can each have a hole (112) formed along a length thereof and can be formed of a resiliently flexible material.
In some embodiments, the hair shapers extend, from a bottom side thereof, into respective ones of the plurality of holes, wherein the plurality of hair shapers (101A) are attached to the base member (107 A). These hair shapers can be plastic, resiliently flexible pieces. The hair shapers can have a ball-shaped end. In some embodiments, the hair shapers may terminate below a surface of the body pad, within the holes. In some embodiments, the hair shapers can extend outward at least partially from at least some of the plurality of holes.
In some embodiments, the hair styling tool further includes a first removable attachment material affixed to or formed integrally with the base member, and a second removable attachment material affixed to or formed integrally with the body pad, wherein the first removable attachment material is removably attachable to the

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)
second removable attachment material, permitting a user to place one or more different body pads onto the base member. In some embodiments, the hair styling tool further includes a plurality of attachment material holes formed in the second removable attachment material, where the plurality of attachment material holes align with the plurality of holes in the body pad.
The hair styling tool can cut the time in more than half to achieve desired results, allowing a user to achieve hair coils, curls, and/or starting of dread locks in fraction of the time as compared to conventional hair styling tools. For example, one-minute styles can be achieved with embodiments of the present invention.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following more detailed description, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which illustrate, by way of example, the principles of the invention.
