- the platform includes a pair of jaws and a planar surface with the surface being disposed substantially orthogonal to the jaws.
- the selected hair is captured in the jaws allowing the planar surface to press against the hair directly immediately thereunder and the scalp.
- a foil sheet is interposed between and held by action of the planar surface and the scalp thereby achieving isolation of the selected bundle from adjacent hair.
- Streaking or frosting involves selective application of chemicals to a pre-selected shank or lock of hair.
- various prior devices are used. For example, it is suggested to use aluminum foil. With this approach, the selected hair is wrapped in the foil along with the bleaching or dying agents. Use of this procedure leaves much to be desired since the foil jacket is not a particularly good container for the chemical solution.
- the foil approach it is found that regardless of skill of the hairdresser or beautician, some of the chemicals find their way to unselected hairs, treating them and unintentionally coloring, if that be the case, other hair regions. Then, too, in making the foil container; the foil is usually folded back on itself one or several times. This causes localized bends in the hair that in turn causes opposite sides of individual hair folicules to respectively experience tension and compression. Since the hair takes the dye or bleach differently when compressed or stretched, an undesirable hair shading may appear when the foil is sharply bent or crimpt.
- the member is a closure cap for and fits into one end of a cylindrical container.
- the opposite other end of the cylinder is open and into which the chemicals or agents are poured.
- the hairs are stuffed into the container with the end cap closing and sealing the container bottom.

Sheet 2 of 2 U8. Patent Nov. 25, 1975 APPARATUS FOR ISOLATING AND TREATING SELECTED HAIR STRANDS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a hair coloring device and more particularly to a coloring device adapted to isolate preselected hair strands.
Often times it is necessary to apply treatment to a selected lock of hair. Or, it may be desirable to simultaneously treat a plurality of such locks. Selective treatment is particularly the case when it is desired to frost or streak the hair. At first impression such a task might not appear unduly difficult, but, in practice and with prior apparatus, it is inordinately difficult to accurately streak.
Streaking or frosting involves selective application of chemicals to a pre-selected shank or lock of hair. To isolate the selected hair bundles from the adjacent hair, various prior devices are used. For example, it is suggested to use aluminum foil. With this approach, the selected hair is wrapped in the foil along with the bleaching or dying agents. Use of this procedure leaves much to be desired since the foil jacket is not a particularly good container for the chemical solution. Hence with the foil approach, it is found that regardless of skill of the hairdresser or beautician, some of the chemicals find their way to unselected hairs, treating them and unintentionally coloring, if that be the case, other hair regions. Then, too, in making the foil container; the foil is usually folded back on itself one or several times. This causes localized bends in the hair that in turn causes opposite sides of individual hair folicules to respectively experience tension and compression. Since the hair takes the dye or bleach differently when compressed or stretched, an undesirable hair shading may appear when the foil is sharply bent or crimpt.
Another approach takes a selected hair bundle and places it in a memberdesigned to lock around the hair. The member is a closure cap for and fits into one end of a cylindrical container. The opposite other end of the cylinder is open and into which the chemicals or agents are poured. In use, the hairs are stuffed into the container with the end cap closing and sealing the container bottom. The treating chemical, for example,
bleach or dye is poured in allowing the hair to wash in .the chemical and react therewith. During the opera- ,tion, however, the beautician is unable to work with the hair since the selected bundle remains in the container. Indeed, care must be taken during filling the container lest some chemical spill to adjacent hair region.
regions of the hair since no means is disclosed for isolating one hair packet from the other.
The present invention overcomes-the disadvantage of prior devices and appliances.
Generally, the present invention comprises a clamp and in particular the'clamp consists of two members, one being a molded clamp platform and the other being a resilient clip. The molded platform comprises a central region defined by abutting surfaces to act as jaws for the hair that is placed therein, and a bottom planar surface substantially orthongal to the jaws. One of the two lateral ends of the platform is defined by a wall in which the clip slides and remains captured therein. In the clip in position, the jaws are tensioned between the clip limbs, and in the clip out position, the clip limbs slide a predetermined distance through the wall allowing the clip to remain attached to the platform yet untensioning the jaws. Since the clip remains attached to the platform the inventive device has the effect of being one piece and can be operatedby one'hand.
An aluminum foil strip is designed to be usedwith the platform. The foil strip is placed underneath the planar surface and is frictionally held thereby. The hair root regions of selected hair. To do this, a cylindrical jacket fitted with absorbent material wraps column like around a portion of a selected hair bundle. A plurality of such jackets are used until an entire region of the hair is separated into discrete hair bundles with each of the bundles being defined by and captured in a cylindrical jacket. While the device is useful for root dying, it is particularly ill suited for isolating and dying'the end clamped in the jaws can then be worked upon and treated while at the same time the hair remains isolated from adjacent hair by imposition of the foil strip.
It is therefore an object of the present invention ,to provide an appliance that allows treating of selected hair regions. I
It is another object of the present invention to-pro vide a device for treating selected portions of the hair and that permits the doing of .this without unintention ally treating adjacent hair regions. V
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a hair clamp for treating selected bundles of hair wherein the clamp can be operated with one hand.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide an apparatus for selective hair dyeing that provides a high degree of isolation between the selected and unselected hairs and that allows the beutician to work with the hair during the treating process.
It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a hair clamp that is simple in design and easy to manufacture.
Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description considered in connection with the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood, however, that the drawings are designed for purposes of illustration only and not as a definition of the limits of the invention for which reference should be made to the appending claims.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS In the drawings wherein the same reference numeral denotes the same element throughout the several views:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention with the clip shown as an unlocked configuration;
FIG; 2 is a plan view of that seen in FIG. 1 but with the clip shown pushed in locking and tensioning the aws;
FIG. 3 is an elevational view of that seen in FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is an end view along the line 44 of FIG. 3 and seen in the direction of the arrows;
FIG. 5 is a plan view of a foil strip adapted for use with the clamp of FIG. 1;
FIG. 6 shows operation of the device seen, in FIG. 1 and showing how it is used with a foil strip;
FIG. 7 shows use being made of several of the devices seen in FIGS. 1-4;
FIG. 8 is a partial perspective view somewhat similar to that seen of FIG. 1 but, instead of using the resilient clip thereof, showing use of a snap coupling to provide the locking action; and
FIG. 9 is a top plan view of the invention as applied to the head of a person.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring now to the drawings and particularly FIGS. 1-4 there is shown the inventive clamp. The clamp comprises a clamp platform, the platform generally indicated by reference numeral 10, and a resilient clip generally indicated by reference numeral 12 slidable thereon. Platform is a molded one piece unit and includes a pair of opposed jaws 14 and 16 that extend from a rearward wall 18. The jaws are defined by a cut or slot 20 in which the hair is clamped as described herein. As seen, the opposed portion of jaws l4 and 16 are in facial relation along slot 20 and present planar gripping surfaces topress against and clamp the hair. Jaws l4 and 16 include respective skirt portions 22 and 24 with each skirt merging into a respective region of wall l8.The top side of skirts 22 and 24 will preferably include respective wells26 and 28 with the wells running substantially the length of its associates skirt. The underside of each skirt align to form a flat planar surface 30. In the preferred structure planar surface 30 will be orthogonal to slit 20 but this need notnecessarily be the case since the disposition of surface 30 with respect to jaw slit 20 may assume other angularities.
The spacing between the clip limbs in conjunction with apertures 38 and 40 mandates that as the clip slides into the aperture and assumes the positionof FIG. 3, the clip acts on and presses against faces 44 an 46 to thereby compress the jaws.
Turning to FIG. 5 there is shown the preferred form of the foil piece used in the present invention. Foil piece 48 is formed with a channel or slot 50 that on one end communicates with an aperture 52 and on the other communicates with one edge of the foil piece.
Operation of the inventive device can best be understood with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7 and referring back to FIGS. 1-5. The beauticianselects the desired hair bundle for example, hair strands 54. The beautii cian extends clip 12 from platform 10 until the clip assumes the approximate open or out position of FIG. 1.
hair is then spread along slot 20 and clip 12 slid towards platform 10 to provide some degree of jaw compresr sion. Foil piece 48 is brought up to both the platform and hair bundle captured therein. The foil is oriented so that the longitudinal axis of channel 50 is parallel to and aligned with the longitudinal axis of jaw slot 20 alonto the platform and, as mentioned, lightly com-1 presses hair strands 54. The foil is then positioned around the strands, as likewise mentioned, but now.
FIG. 7 shows a plurality of devices 10 being used em-.. ploying several overlapping, alluminum foil sheets.
Thus it is possible to simultaneously treat several discrete hair packets or bundles.
Turning to FIG. 8, there is shown a partial perspective of another embodiment of the present invention.
no. 9 shows the head of a subject with .a plurality of i the devices 10 aligned with two sheets of a protective barrier 56 such as aluminumfoil, paper or plastic film laid under the devices 10. The sheets 56 may be se cured by adhesive tape 57.
The spacing between the jaws, that is the width of slot is not critical since clamp 12 will urge the jaws together. Yet the slot should not be too large for if so when the jaws are clamped, that portion of the slot 20 near wall 18 will remain open possibly allowing the chemical to seep in.
While only a few embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described it is to be understood that many changes and modifications can be made hereto without departing from the spirit and scope thereof.
