Patent number: 9504301Abstract: A hair styling device that has a rotating cylinder extending from a body that may be easily grasped by hand. The device allows the cylinder to rotate relative to the body, which remains stationary in the hand of a user. The cylinder has a clamp for clamping hair to the cylinder. The clamp rotates with the cylinder and is used to wind hair up the cylinder while the user holds the body of the device. The direction of rotation of the cylinder may be changed as desired by the user. The ability of a user to rotate the cylinder without rotating the entire device manually eliminates twisting the cord due to turning the entire device as is done with traditional curling irons. Buttons on the device select the direction of rotation of the cylinder.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2016Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: The Beachwaver Co.Inventors: Sarah J. Kennedy, Myung-Ho Maeng
