ABSTRACT:
A hair washing or shampooing device includes a pair of interlocking bowls and a drainage tank that eliminate the need for a conventional sink and which further eliminates the need for a client to bend his or her neck backward during a hair cleaning process. A secondary bowl surmounts a primary bowl and has a greater breadth than the primary bowl so that liquids splashing against the secondary bowl are directed into the primary bowl. A sump formed in the primary bowl is connected by a drainage hose to a drainage tank which may be manually emptied or emptied by a pump. A liquid-delivery hose extends through an opening formed in the secondary bowl, and a liquid-dispensing nozzle having a trigger is attached to the free end of the hose to facilitate the hair-cleaning process. The inner part of a cape is connected to the primary bowl and the outlying part of the cape overlies the client's shoulders to protect them from wetness. A belt member is tightened around the cape to further secure it into position. A drawstring has opposite free ends that may be pulled by the client to further tighten the cape around the client's neck if the client feels that a leakage is imminent. The bowls are supported in part by the client's shoulders and further by a pair of parallel, transversely spaced apart arms that form a part of a height-adjustable stand that at least partially supports the weight of the bowls. The stand accommodates a chair or a bed upon which the client sits during the hair-cleaning procedure.
