A weaving tool has a first part and a second part, in which a first end of the first part is connected to a first end of the second part by a hinge. The first part has a first comb portion with first teeth extending away from the hinge, and the second part comprises a second comb portion with second teeth extending away from the hinge. The first part and the second part are movable about an axis of the hinge between a first position in which the first comb portion and the second comb portion are substantially parallel, and a second position in which the first comb portion and the second comb portion are displaced from one another about the axis.

A hairstyling apparatus is provided, the apparatus including: a barrel defining a hairstyling surface and a central longitudinal axis, wherein the barrel has a first proximal end and a second distal end; a heating element in thermal communication with the barrel; and a rotating member in rotating communication with the proximal end of the barrel which rotates around the central axis of the barrel, the rotating member including a rotating plate that surrounds the proximal end of the barrel and an axially extending tab from the rotating plate along a longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface over at least a portion of longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface; wherein the rotating member includes a comb member, extending from the rotating member (such as the rotating sleeve/collar) which is attached or assembled to the tab and comprises a plurality of comb teeth arranged along the longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface.

A hair styling device is described, for waving hair by forming a length of hair into a wave form. A first forming member, a second forming member and a third forming member are located within a chamber of the device. There is a first hair-receiving region between the first and second forming members and a second hair-receiving region between the second and third forming members. A first driving member drives a portion of the length of hair into the first hair-receiving region and a second driving member drives another portion of the length of hair into the second hair-receiving region. The first and second driving members move independently and sequentially so as to reduce the tension applied to the length of hair.

A beard iron for straightening beard hairs includes a handle having a proximal end, a distal end, a dorsal side, and a ventral side. A hair iron is coupled to the distal end and comprises a heating plate and a heating element. The heating element warms a bottom side of the heating plate. A power source is coupled to the handle and is in operational communication with the heating element. A guide is coupled to the ventral side proximal the distal end and extends to rest adjacent the bottom side of the heating plate.

The present disclosure relates to hair styling apparatuses and related methods. The hair styling apparatus includes a heated barrel defining a hair styling surface and a central axis, and a rotating member disposed at an end of the hair styling surface. The rotating member is configured to rotate around the central axis of the heated barrel. The rotating member includes one or more retaining elements configured to retain the hair and wind the hair around the hair styling surface. The one or more retaining elements projects away from the hair styling surface.

A device for measuring hair properties has a first part (I) and a second part (II) between which hair (H) is guided. The first part (I) comprises a measuring probe (MP), and the second part (II) is arranged for deforming the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP). While the device moves along the hair (H), the measuring probe (MP) experiences both a friction force resulting from the hair (H) being guided along the measuring probe (MP), and a deformation force (DF) resulting from the hair (H) being deformed by the second part (II) against the measuring probe (MP). Advantageously, the second part (II) comprises a pressure element (PB, S) for pressing the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP), to squeeze the hair (H). In alternative embodiments, the second part (II) comprises alignment elements (AE) at opposite sides of the measuring probe (MP) for bending the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP), and guidance elements (G) for mitigating an influence of an angle at which the device is applied to the hair (H) to the friction force and/or the deformation force, while the measuring probe (MP) is mounted to a load cell module (LC-X, LC-Y) for measuring a load in two dimensions to measure friction force and deformation force, respectively.

Disclosed is an angle deflection type twisted hair styling device, including an upper gripping portion and a lower gripping portion openable and closeable through a hinge structure. An upper clamping head is connected to the upper gripping portion. A lower clamping head is connected to the lower gripping portion. An upper clamping surface is provided on the upper clamping head. A lower clamping surface is provided on the lower clamping head. The upper clamping surface has an upper twisted deflection angle with respect to the upper gripping portion. The lower clamping surface has a lower twisted deflection angle with respect to the lower gripping portion. The upper twisted deflection angle equal to the lower twisted deflection angle. A hairstyle with an inclined angle and a twisted shape can be realized without rotation of a user's hand, and the hairstyle can be completed without major changes to perm action.
