Hair holder, method for producing said hair holder, and method for using said hair holder
A hair holder (1) of the present invention includes a tubular body (2) and a fixing member (5). The tubular body (2) has a first surface sheet (23A) and a second surface sheet (23B). The second surface sheet (23B) has a plurality of slits (25) that extends in a width direction and that is intermittently arranged along a longitudinal direction. The fixing member (5) has a first member (5a) and second members (5b) that can be detachably joined together. The first member (5a) is arranged on the first surface sheet (23A) on the side of a first opening (21) located at a first end in the longitudinal direction. The second surface sheet (23B) has a central region (M) in the width direction, where the plurality of slits is provided, and a pair of side regions (S) each of which is located on opposite sides of the central region (M). The second members (5b) are arranged in the pair of side regions (S), respectively, so as to extend in the longitudinal direction.

HAIR TREATMENT METHOD AND HAIR HOLDER
The present invention provides a hair treatment method for curling a lock of hair (H) using a hair holder (1). The hair holder (1) includes a tubular body (2) which has an opening (21) located at a first end of the tubular body and an opening (22) located at a second end of the tubular body, and which is configured to allow a lock of hair (H) to be inserted from the opening (21) toward the opening (22) and to be capable of being rolled up. The hair treatment method includes an insertion step of inserting a lock of hair (H) into the tubular body (2); a rolling-up step of rolling up the tubular body (2) together with the lock of hair (H) inserted in the tubular body (2) thereby to form a roll-shaped, lock-of-hair holding body (3) in which the opening (22) is located on the center side roll-shaped, lock-of-hair holding body (3) of the roll-shaped, lock-of-hair holding body (3); a deforming step of deforming the tubular body (2) into a helix form by pulling out a portion of the lock-of-hair holding body (3), the portion being located on the center side, toward a lateral side of the lock-of-hair holding body (3); and a curling treatment step of performing a curling treatment of the lock of hair (H) while maintaining the tubular body (2) in the helix form.
HYDROPHILIC POLYURETHANE STRUCTURES AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
Fiber supports include a base and hydrophilic polyurethane foam that directly contacts the fibers while being elastic and flexible for reshaping. Hydrophilic polyurethane foam has a density to hold over nineteen times its weight in liquids that absorb into the fibers in direct contact with the foam over time. Supports may be any shape or size, and may be rigid or flexible. Cylindrical shapes are useable to permit winding, curling, or spiraling of fibers about the support. The fibers are directly affixed to the foam for support and shaping. A clasp may be clamped or snapped over the fibers and foam support to compress the two directly together. If the support is flexible, the foam may be reshaped with the fibers, holding the shape during wearing or drying. During such wearing or drying, liquid held in the foam may be absorbed directly into the fiber, resulting in favorable chemical treatment.
