Abstract: The hair curler includes an outer and an inner sleeve. Both sleeves include passages in their walls. The sleeves can be rotated relative to each other. Accordingly, the passages in the outer sleeve can be opened or shut off. The hair curler includes a hollow flange portion with passages which cannot be closed off and an inlet opening for a feeding of warm air for a treatment of hair wound on the curler. When the passages of the outer sleeve are closed off, warm air will flow merely in an axial direction out of the passages of the flange portion. This state is needed for a slight drying of the hair when producing a permanent wave. When the passages of the outer sleeve are opened, the hair wound therearound are dried after the rinsing thereof by warm air flowing through the passages out of the inner space of the curler and by further warm airstream flowing out of the exit openings of the hollow flange portion.
