Abstract: A scalp protector for the application of free-flowing hair treatment agents, in which according to the invention a comb-like first bundle of tines (1) protruding from a first web (3) having tines extending essentially parallel to one another is provided, wherein a cover element which adjustably constricts the free space between the tines is provided. The invention therefore represents a mechanical barrier, which is inserted into the hair at the point to be treated and remains there during the duration of the treatment. Since according to the invention a cover element, which adjustably constricts the free space between the teeth, is provided, the cover element can primarily be selected so that the free space is enlarged and easy insertion into the hair is possible. In the further proceedings, the cover element can be adjusted so that the free space is constricted and the scalp is completely covered down to the regions in which the individual hairs aligned in the free space between the tines pass through.
Abstract: A hair treating apparatus having a first component with opposite first and second sides. The first side is engageable by a first finger on a user's hand.

Abstract: This device has a structure of two durable combs connected to a hand held grip. The Grip System is functional with two bilateral segments, which are equal in length and width. The bilateral segments consist of bristles that differ in thickness and distance. The Grip System is controlled by clasping the handles that unite the bilateral segments. The Grip System simplifies the conventional method of cutting hair. The advantage of being able to grasp the hair in a secure and precise manner minimizes the haircutting technique, which is beneficial to all hair stylists. It also creates the opportunity for a secure grip while concentrating on the cut. Additionally it solves a problem for hairstylists in accuracy, time efficiency, and manageability.

The teeth (10) of the first and second outer rows of teeth and of the central row of teeth are substantially a same length. Spacing of the teeth of the central row (33) is different from spacing of the teeth of the first and second outer rows (31, 32) with the spacing of the teeth being arranged for the removal of head lice and/or nits and/or head lice eggs and/or fleas from combed hair or fur.
