A hair accessory includes bundled synthetic braiding hair. The bundled synthetic braiding hair can include a first bundle of synthetic hair and a second bundle of synthetic hair strands. Other bundles with different lengths can be included as well. The first bundle and the second bundle can have different lengths and can be bundled at a common center, or alternatively can have a common length and can be bundled with their centers offset by a predefined distance. A binder can be coupled about a waist of the bundled synthetic braiding hair. When the bundled synthetic braiding hair is folded about the binder, the different strand lengths work to define a substantially cardioid shaped perimeter of the bundled synthetic braiding hair.

A portable container for cleanly containing a loofah puff in the form of a contoured sleeve. One end of the sleeve is open allowing the loofah puff to be put in or removed from the container. The opposite end is substantially closed with a central hole through which a loofah puff cord can be pulled to draw the loofah puff into the sleeve. The cord is left exposed so the container with the loofah puff inside can be hung by the cord if desired. The shape of the sleeve tends to bias the loofah puff in an ideal orientation for folded compression as the loofah puff is drawn into the container and uses the elasticity of the loofah puff to hold it within the sleeve once it is drawn all or most of the way into the sleeve. A lid closes the open end of the sleeve when desired.

A tissue paper package not prone to losing shape. Film-packaged tissue paper comprising a pop-up type substantially cuboid bundle of tissue paper packaged with a flexible resin packaging film, and characterized in that air vents for providing communication between the inside and the outside of the package are formed at positions on the packaging film facing short-side surfaces of the bundle of tissue paper where no folded edges are arranged.

A film-packaged tissue in which wrinkles or twisting is less likely to occur in tissue paper stored in the film package. A bundle of pop-up type tissue paper is film-packaged by a resin packaging film. The inner circumferential length of the packaging film in a short direction of the bundle is 91 to 97% of a theoretical outer circumferential length in the short direction of the bundle, and the compression characteristic (RC) of the film-packaged tissue by KES measurement at a longitudinal center of a bundle upper surface is 45 to 60%.

A package including a stack of absorbent tissue paper material and a packaging, wherein, in the stack, the tissue material forms panels having a length, and a width perpendicular to the length, the panels being piled on top of each other to form a height extending between a first end surface and a second end surface of the stack; the absorbent tissue paper material including at least a dry crepe material, the stack, when in the package, having a selected packing density D0 of 0.25 to 0.65 kg/dm.sup.3, and exerting a force along the height of the stack towards the packaging, the packaging encircling the stack so as to maintain the stack in a compressed condition with the selected packing density D0.

Disclosed is a packing system for a slide of an aircraft evacuation system, the packing system having: a rigid packboard having a first side end and a second side end that opposes the first side end; a first valise flap having a first outer end and a first inner end, the first outer end connected to the first side end of the rigid packboard; a second valise flap having a second outer end and a second inner end, the second outer end connected to the second side end of the rigid packboard; and lacing for tying together the first inner end of the first valise flap and the second inner end of the second valise flap, wherein the first valise flap and the second valise flap are formed of a heat shrink material.
