An electric hair dryer shaped to appear as a western style gun or six-shooter, wherein the heated air exits from the barrel of the hair dryer gun. The hair dryer gun has a hammer and trigger operated electric switch and safety mechanism designed such that the trigger must be pulled to unlatch the hammer which is connected to the switch. Movement of the hammer serves to turn the hair dryer on and to different modes of operation.

Hair dryer comprising a motor, an air blowing nozzle and a hand grip. The hand grip of the hair dryer is pivotably attached to the motor body so that it can be brought in two different positions. A carrier loop is detachably affixed on the blowing nozzle. In one position of the handgrip, the hair dryer is convenient for use, in the other position it occupies little space when packed or when the loop is placed around the user's neck.

A hair dryer comprises an elongated casing which provides a fan housing and a heater housing extending longitudinally therefrom. The fan housing has a pair of laterally spaced air inlets and the heater housing provides an air outlet. The fan motor is mounted in the fan housing, and drives a pair of fans which cooperate respectively with the air inlets. A deflector is located in the fan housing and positioned to deflect incoming air from each of the inlets into the heater housing. In one embodime...

A hair color which includes 0.5 to 8% by weight of a basic dye as a coloring agent, 0.5 to 15% by weight of a alcohol-soluble resin, 20 to 80% by weight of lower alcohol and 5 to 50% by weight of water. The hair color does not require washing of the hair immediately after being applied and enables the hair to be gradually dyed upon repeated use. The hair color can provide excellent water resistance against sweat and rain in a hot and humid period such as a summer season.

A hair clip is disclosed for use with hollow, thin-walled, tubular hair curlers. The hair clip has a clamping jaw portion at one end disposed at an obtuse angle to the body of the hair clip. At the other end from the clamping jaws, a pivot point permits the clip to be opened and closed by operating tabs that are formed on the clip near the pivot point. The clip is elongated and the clamping jaws, at one end of the clip, are at a distance from the pivot point, near the other end of the clip, whic...

Hair dyeing compositions containing a dye which has the formula ##SPC1## Wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each hydrogen or hydroxy ethyl alone or in conjunction with an oxidation and/or direct dyeing dye. The hair dyeing compositions can also include the conventional additives such as water soluble surface active agents, thickening agents, complex formers, antioxidants, softeners, perfumes, and the like.

A self-adhering hair curler comprises an elongated cylindrical foam body and equidistantly spaced elongated strips of bristles bonded to the peripheral surface of the body and extending longitudinally thereof.
