Abstract: Aspects of hair styling instruments and methods for styling hair into waves and curls have been provided herein. In one embodiment, a case for receiving and styling hair therein, comprises a base having at least a bottom, a center, and a perimeter; and a lid coupleable with the base; wherein the lid and the base form a volume for receiving the hair; and wherein the at least the bottom of the base and the lid each include a plurality of openings to allow flow of air and liquids through the case.

Abstract: A hair styling device is described that has a handle, an elongated, substantially cylindrical, heatable rod providing a curling surface and supported by the handle, a heater for heating the curling surface, a support spaced apart from the curling surface, and a rotatable member rotatable relative to the curling surface for wrapping hair around and in contact with the curling surface. The device has an opening in the rotatable member for receiving a section of a user's hair, a motor for rotating the rotatable member, and a flexible, heat-resistant clamp supported by the support and extending from the support toward the curling surface for clamping hair against the curling surface.

Abstract: The invention provides a hair brush having a removable curler which is easily applied to the brush, thus enabling the user to style their hair in a quick and easy fashion. The curler fitting over the end of the brush is designed to freely rotate, with a spring loaded release lever included for use in quickly releasing the attached curler on demand. Curlers to be applied over the brush handle are hollow, cylindrical shaped rollers, on the surface which a series of soft fiber bristles for use in gently gripping the hair are integrally attached. As an additional consideration, curlers of various diameters can be configured for use with the E-Z Roller, thus enabling the user to create looser or tighter curlers. Any appropriate clip fastener is also be included for use in securing the curler in place.

Abstract: A contractile handle containing a longitudinal slot and a flexible grip is described. By the use of this handle heated hair curler rollers may be individually removed from a vat of boiling curling solution, strands of hair easily rolled around each roller, the handle removed and the process repeated the desired number of times. When all the rollers have cooled and dried, the handle is again used to unwind and remove the rollers one at a time. The now-curled strands then are lightly combed to combine individual curls.

Abstract: A hair bundling core structure comprising an elastic cylinder made of a foamed synthetic resin having a thickness and a strength which are sufficient for facilitating the insertion and extraction of a hair setting U-shaped pin and are capable of fixing the hair by the insertion. The core structure is cut from one end face to the other thereof to have a rift.

Abstract: A styling hairbrush which utilizes styling hair rollers of variable lengths and diameters, the rollers being easily mounted onto and easily removed from a control wand, and the rollers being surfaced with a velcro-like material for gripping the hair to be styled.

Abstract: A hair curler comprising a roller and a support therefor. The support includes jaws which permit the roller to slide therealong between an entrance position in which the roller is freely rotatable and a grasping position which permits final adjustment of hair tension on the roller. The support includes a comb, and hair tension locks the comb in position on the scalp.
