  • Hair color foil holder
    Patent number: 8757174
    Abstract: A foiling device has a plate for receiving one or more foil sheets and a telescoping brace attached to the plate and configured to be set in an extended position and a retracted position to lengthen or shorten the device as needed by the stylist. A substantially flexible stabilizing cap may be attached to the proximal end of the brace, the cap contacting the stylist's chest when in use. The cap may be shaped and textured to increase contact surface area and friction and hold the device against the stylist's clothes. A base may be attached to the plate to space the plate away from the surface on which it rests, making it easier to pick up the device. One or more retaining mechanisms may be positioned on the plate to retain the foil sheets on the surface.
