Abstract: A hair curling brush comprises a convection heater and a barrel which encloses a halogen heating bulb. The barrel comprises a tube having both a plurality of bristles and a plurality of holes adjacent to the bristles. The heating bulb emits both visible light and infrared radiation. The barrel absorbs the infrared radiation but allows some visible light to escape through the holes. The brush includes a blower for forcing heated air from the barrel through the holes. The visible light glowing from the barrel provides an indicator of the heater's energization.

Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) for facilitating the shaving of large body surfaces. The method employs a skin lubricating unit (12) in the form of a shaving gel (41) impregnated with a luminous agent such as “Luminal” that will penetrate the user's body hairs wherever the foaming gel (41) is applied such that a razor blade member (20) equipped with a black light element (30) disposed in proximity to the shaving blade cartridge (24) will cause any body hairs missed in the shaving process to glow under the combined effects of the “Luminal” and the black light to insure that the selected body surfaces are completely shaved.
