Abstract: An elongated handle having a square cross-section is adapted at one end to receive a swivel electrical power supply means and at the other end to receive a detachable hollow, metal housing which encloses a heating element. The housing is elongated about its longitudinal axis and is formed with a plurality of flat side surface portions disposed angularly with respect to each other and joined at parallel edges which are slightly rounded for imparting a temporary bend to wet hairs held over the rounded edges under tension. A flipper arm type hair holding means is pivotably mounted to the handle and has a blade portion which overlies the upper flat side surface of the housing for sandwiching strands of hair therebetween.
