ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a novel adjustable diameter hair curler which is extremely lightweight, portable, and suitable for travel. The novel adjustable curler includes a substrate of a flexible material such as a plastic or fabric or backing material which may optionally include a thin spring steel lamination for added resilience. The substrate has a first planar side and a second planar side opposite said first planar side. Attached to the first side of the substrate are an array of hook-type elements from a hook and loop-type fastening system such as VELCRO.RTM. brand hook and loop fasteners available from Velcro Industries of Manchester, N.H. The hook-type elements are generally arrayed over the majority of the first side. Strips of engaging materials are provided on each side of the substrate to secure the adjustable curler in a cylindrical form having a selected diameter. By rolling the substrate to form a cylinder so that a portion of the substrate overlaps another portion of the substrate, the engaging materials may interact to hold the cylinder's shape with relative ease and complete adjustability of cylinder diameter. Lock-in of the shape may be accomplished easily with a single hand. For storage, the curlers may be completely flattened for storage or transport in a very minimal volume.
