  • Patent number: 12178304
    Abstract: A dome comb system and method of manufacture can include: a dome body comprising: a dome peripheral support extending out from a dome inner surface toward a dome center, and a dome coupling element extending up from the bottom surface and along the dome outer surface; a locking ring comprising: a locking ring coupling element extending down from a locking ring top surface along the locking ring inner surface, and the dome coupling element together with the locking ring coupling element enabling the dome comb system to be in a coupled state or a decoupled state; and an insert comprising: a circular body, a screen.

  • Patent number: 11607024
    Abstract: A modular comb system and method can include: a frame including a comb body; a locking ring including a locking mechanism for mating with the comb body and for locking the locking ring to the comb body; and a screen insert configured to be in a fixed position with respect to the frame based on the locking ring being locked to the comb body.

  • Patent number: 10799006
    Abstract: A hair twisting system and method of can include: a frame having an annular shape, the frame defining a frame inner surface, a frame outer surface, and a frame front surface; a handle extending from a proximal end of the frame in a direction away from the frame, the handle including side walls which converge toward one another in the proximal direction to define a proximal tip, where the side walls define an exterior griping surface and are separated by an opening in a proximal portion thereof to provide an interior griping surface; and strings extending linearly between opposing portions of the frame inner surface, wherein the strings intersect to form a grid network defining openings between adjacent strings, where the intersections are moveable.

  • Patent number: 10368623
    Abstract: A hair twisting system and method can include: a frame, the frame including a frame inner surface, a frame outer surface, and a frame front surface; strings extended between portions of the frame interior surface, the strings define areas between the strings, the strings providing woven moveable intersections, the strings configured to be: pressed down into hair towards a scalp, and then simultaneously moved out away from the scalp while being rotated until the strings disengage from the hair for creating twisted locks; and a handle coupled to the frame, the handle including side structures, the side structures providing an interior griping surface between the side structures and an exterior griping surface.
