Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for applying color to individual strands of hair in order to produce different colors or highlights in the hair.
- the device according to the invention for applying color whereby the term color means both tints, bleaching agents or hair colors, on individual strands of hair consists of a tongue-shaped handle, which can consist of flexible but dimensionally stable plastic material or can be in several parts, so that the ends of the Handle can be approximated in a simple manner.
- the multipart nature can be achieved, for example, by riveting two handle parts together or connecting them together by means of a press fit.
- One end of the tongue-shaped handle is provided with a brush and the other end with a holding device for holding the strand.
- Both the brush and the holding device can be detachably connected to the handle, so that differently designed brushes or holding devices can be used.
- the brush has several rows of bristles, the bristles according to the invention being shorter in the middle of the brush than on the sides.
- the number of rows of bristles with shorter bristles can vary depending on the thickness of the strand to be treated, so that it is also desirable for this reason if the brush head is designed to be replaceable.
- the opposite end of the handle has a holding device for holding the strand when applying the paint, which has a constriction in the middle opposite the shorter bristles of the brush.
- the effect of this is that more color can be taken up in this retraction and that strands of hair of different thickness can be processed depending on the design of the middle bristles of the brush and the depth of the retraction, which together form a kind of channel.
- the brush is preferably provided with a pump for supplying the paint in order to make it unnecessary to set it down during processing.
- the holding device at the other end of the handle preferably has a memory for excess color, so that it can be used again when processing the next strand.
- Fig. 2 shows a side view of another embodiment.
- the device 1 consists of a tongue-shaped handle 40, which can be an elastic plastic tube, for example.
- the tongue-shaped handle 40 has two opposite ends 5 and 30, the handle being folded about 180 °.
- the first end 5 of the handle 40 has a detachable brush 10 which has a plurality of rows of bristles 12.
- the inner rows of bristles in the middle are shorter than the outer rows of bristles.
- the color or bleaching agent or tint is applied for processing a single strand of the customer's hair.
- the brush 10 can for example be attached to the handle 40 with adhesive tape, by a press fit or in a similar manner.
- the second end 30 of the handle 40 has a releasable holding device 20 which, like the first end, is connected to the end of the handle by fastening means 15 here by fastening means 35.
- the holding device 20 has a retraction 80 in the middle, so that the selected strand can be held and excess paint is stored.
- the holding device 20 is fastened to the surface of the end 30 of the handle by the fastening means 35.
- the fastening means 35 allow, if desired, this holding device 20 to be removed and replaced by other holding devices with a different shape.
- the handle can also be in several parts, in particular in two parts, and consist of the equally long sections 50 and 60, which are connected to one another at their free ends by a fastening device 100.
- the device according to the invention is easy to use and is suitable both for the treatment of strands by the customer at home and for professional use.
- the design of the brush and the holding device enables uniform and continuous coloring of strands, with strands of different thicknesses being able to be treated.
