BACKGRROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0029] Field of Invention

[0030] Technical Field

[0031] This invention pertains to the drying of hair on the head in the cosmetology industry.

[0032] Having and owning a hair salon since 1991, almost 100% of the complaints were related to hair dryers and how hot the clients were due to the heat generated to dry the hair. Constant complaints about having to sit under “hot” hair dryers. Information gathered from independent surveys taken at random from other salons and cosmetology schools revealed the same.

Claims

1. Our claim is to incorporate a fan and or air condition compressor unit under the base portion of a hair dryer chair unit in which a fan and or air conditioner compressor is either connected directly under the base part of a hair dryer base (seat) or cooled air is pumped through the base by an outside air conditioner source where the cool/cold air flows through the seat, back, arms and front bottom of the base of the hair dryer chair:
