The handheld motorized hair styling device is a battery-operated, motorized, hair styling tool that produces a styled pattern of curls, twists, and/or coils in hair. The handheld motorized hair styling device creates the styled pattern by moving a contoured styling pad against the hair in a roto-linear motion. The speed and direction of the roto-linear motion may be changed using controls on the handheld motorized hair styling device. The styling pad may be removed and replaced and the battery is rechargeable.

The invention relates to a device for shaping and styling the hairs, and specifically for forming a so-called ponytail, as well as to the use of the device in accordance with the invention for shaping and styling hairs and forming a hair-style, and a method for forming a hairstyle, and more specifically, a pony tail.

The hairstyling device (1) in accordance with the invention particularly serves for shaping a so-called ponytail, and has an essentially rotationally symmetrical base body (10), the base body being provided with an attachment surface (20) at a front surface thereof, the attachment surface being meant for mounting over the head of a person to be hair-dressed. Further, the device includes a shaft (30), having longitudinal grooves (40) provided on its surface. The longitudinal grooves (40) extend over the surface in such a manner that at least one component of their extension direction lies in the longitudinal direction (11) of the base body (10). Further, the shaft is formed concavely in its longitudinal section, on a sectionalized basis.

Disclosed is a hairdressing apparatus with anion function having switch, temperature regulation and display parts. A second support and a PCBA plate are arranged in an upper body, a second MCH is arranged in a second aluminum plate, a FUSE is arranged on the second MCH and fixed on the second aluminum plate by a second elastic piece, and the second support is arranged on the second aluminum plate, to form a second heating unit component, which is arranged in the upper body, on the upper part of which the upper cover plate is fixed, through a screw, a spring is arranged between the upper and lower covers, the upper and lower bodies are fixedly connected through a shaft sleeve and shaft sleeve screw further sleeved with a side cover. The hairdressing apparatus has anion function, and is safe and comfortable, so use demands of different people are met.

A multifunctional quick hair curling and straightening device comprises a handle (1), an upper holding arm (2), and a lower holding arm (3). The handle (1) is provided with an air inlet end (11) and an air outlet end (12). The lower holding arm (3) is fixedly disposed at the air outlet end (12). A tail end of the upper holding arm (2) is hinged to a tail end of the lower holding arm (3). The upper holding arm (2) and the lower holding arm (3) are provided with a first heating plate (21) and a second heating plate (31), respectively. An air blowing mechanism (13) is disposed in the handle (1). An air blowing port of the air blowing mechanism (13) directly faces the tail ends of the upper holding arm (2) and the lower holding arm (3). Outer surfaces of the upper holding arm (2) and the lower holding arm (3) are each provided with a plurality of air grooves (5) in a circumferential direction. Air blown from the air blowing mechanism (13) sequentially flows through the air blowing port, the air outlet end (12) and the plurality of air grooves (5). The invention can achieve hair straightening and quick hair curling. The newly heated and softened hair during hair curling can be promptly set by means of rapid air cooling, thereby achieving the purpose of quick hair curling.

A hair styling apparatus including a first and a second arm moveable between a closed position in which a contacting surface of the first arm is adjacent a contacting surface of the second arm and an open position in which the contacting surfaces of each arm are spaced apart, whereby the contacting surfaces of each arm have complementary profiles so that, in use, a section of hair is clamped between the contacting surfaces when the arms are in the closed position, and where a heating zone on at least one of the contacting surfaces is provided to heat the section of hair between the contacting surfaces, a cooling zone on at least one of the contacting surfaces is provided for cooling the section of hair after the section of hair has been heated, and the cooling zone is curved whereby, in use, as the hair styling apparatus is moved along the section of hair in a generally linear fashion, the section of hair is curled.
