  • Patent number: 9017342
    Abstract: A Hair Threading Brace for the successful, sanitary operation of the Hair Threading procedure. The wearer of the threading brace can continue to offer the service of hair threading without requiring the wearer to either hold the thread in the mouth, a potentially unsanitary practice, or take the lengthy time to tie a loop around the neck. Additionally the wearer will be able to wind the thread around at least one bend on the device, which allows for the creation of a point of tension that can be used in the service of hair threading. The invention also calls for the addition of an optional wearers' mouth guard, which the wearer can choose to attach in order to protect both the wearer and the client from any debris that may be exhaled by the wearer, or caused by the threading technique, as is the case when the thread gently exfoliates skin off the client, into the air, by rubbing against its surface.
