DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method of rolling up short strands of hair in the process of giving a permanent wave, wherein the strand of hair is enclosed by a holding strip and rolled up with it, and wherein the holding strip forms the roller after curling, which is performed without hair curlers.
2. Description of the Prior Art
A method of this type is known from DE-28 26 528 U1, wherein a rectangular piece of an acid and base-resistant plastic netting is rolled up, together with a strand of hair and with the use of a curling rod, and wherein the curling rod is pulled out from the side of the rolled up hair after the hair roll is finished. This method is disadvantageous because it only works with relatively long strands of hair, and because the rolling-up process, during which the strand of hair is inserted into the curling rod between the latter and the piece of plastic netting must be held there, which requires considerable manual dexterity. It is furthermore disadvantageous that at its end away from the head the strand of hair forms a triangular tip which has the result that the hair on the side of the strand of hair has a longer way to reach the tip; this results in only loosely curled hair on both sides when rolling it up; the effect is that a tighter wave is created in the center of the hair roller and a less tight wave on the sides of the hair roller.
A method is known from DE-75 24 922 in which, for the directed wet treatment of a strand of hair with a specific hair care product, the strand of hair is protectively placed between the two folds of a soaked absorbent folded leaf and rolled onto a hair curler. This method, too, can only be used in connection with a very specific purpose and requires considerable manual dexterity when rolling up the strand of hair placed between the folded leaf. Therefore it is very time-consuming.
In a method which is known from DE-74 17 205 U2, the strand of hair is rolled up with the use of an axially slit, tube-shaped curling rod and placed into a hair clip. This hair clip is used to hold the curls in a hairdo; however, it is not used for giving a permanent wave.
A hair curler is known from U.S. Pat. No. 2,318,972 which comprises a slit rod. The use of such a hair curler in giving a permanent wave has the disadvantage that the hair is given an unsightly kink at the place were it rests against the edges of the slit. The same is true for hair curlers in accordance with U.S. Pat. No. 2,608,977.
It is known from DE 86 19 681.2 U1 to embody the hair curler in two pieces in the axial direction so that it can be flipped open, wherein a protective foil for covering the ends of the hair is applied to at least one part. Despite this, the time required in this case continues to be considerable and the disadvantages mentioned are still present.
It is known from DE 33 15 373 A1 to form curls with the aid of a clapper rod. This may make the application of permanent wave lotion easier. But the capability of shaping is limited. Rolling the strands of hair on the clapper rod is time-consuming and arduous.
A hair curler is known from DE 78 30 751 U1 which consists of a loosely rolled-up elastic large-meshed flat piece. In cross section the hair curler has the shape of a spiral, which during rolling up of the strand of hair can be strongly compressed in order to obtain different diameters of the hair roller formed in this way. The involved and extensive manipulation is disadvantageous.
A two-piece hair curler for creating particular wave shapes is known from DE 81 29 264.3 U1 which, however, also has the mentioned disadvantages.
From DE 75 31 964 U1 hair curlers are also known which are made of flat pieces, depending on the desired size, prior to rolling up. Once they have been cut to the desired size they have all the above described disadvantages of known hair curlers.
Hollow brushes with a built-in hair dryer are known from DE 31 19 085 A1, DE 35 29 267 A1 and DE 33 19 402 A1 which, however, do not offer a possibility fo
