Abstract

A hair extension (1 ), of the kind particularly used for the thickening of hair, allows either a permanent or a non-permanent application and has a linear fixing member (2) from which hairs (3) perpendicularly branch, arranged in a flat configuration, characterized in that the linear fixing member (2) is formed by two tapes (4, 5) adhered to each other so as to obtain a fixing strip, with hairs embedded between the two tapes (4, 5) due to an adhesive layer (6) arranged therebetween, wherein: the tapes (4, 5) are flexible and made in a thermoplastic material; the tapes (4, 5) are provided with a plurality of passing through holes all over the surface thereof; at least one of said tapes (4, 5) has an exposed face provided with a pressure-activated and non- permanent outer adhesive layer (8); and the tapes (4, 5) has been pressed against each other, so that the hairs and the adhesive material of the adhesive layer (6) are at least partially penetrated into said passing through holes.

Abstract

An expandable curler (1) by which the hair winding no longer requires a particular skill, because the strain imparted by the curler to the hairs no longer depends on the strain applied by the operator throughout the winding operation, and wherein possible differences in strain caused by the humidity or by the drying are compensated by the curler, which consequently expands or contracts itself, comprises a curler body split in two or more rigid longitudinal sectors (2, 3) forming together a winding surface (4, 5) receiving an amount of wound hairs in a contracted configuration; locking means (9, 10) of said sectors (2, 3) in said contracted configuration; and elastic means (8), housed inside said sectors (2, 3), apt to apply on said sectors (2, 3) a predetermined elastic force expanding the winding surface (4, 5) and determining a strain state at the wound hairs until the reaching of a balance between inner elastic force and strain applied to the wound hairs, when said locking means (9, 10) are deactivated.

Abstract

A hair extension (C) comprises a plurality of substantially parallel additional hairs (H), extending from a distal end to a proximal end (1 ); and a connection element (2) made of thermoplastic material, keeping said additional hairs (H) joined at said proximal end (1 ), which is provided with ferromagnetic material so as to be magnetically restrained to an application device (10).
