ABSTRACT:
A water extraction device for partially drying wet hair surrounding a perm rod disposed in a person's hair includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet. The inlet includes a shroud which is dimensioned to closely encompass the perm rod. A motor and fan are provided for producing a substantial vacuum at the inlet and a flow of air from the inlet to the outlet. The substantial vacuum pulls water from the wet hair and the flow of air transports the water toward the outlet. The device further includes one or more water separators for removing the water from the flow of air. The water separated from the air is stored in a holding tank or communicated directly to a plumbing drain. By drawing a flow of air through the wet hair in this manner, surface tension tending to hold water in capillary size passages defined between adjacent hair strands is overcome, thus entraining water droplets in the air flow for collection.
