Description
- This invention relates to a hair styling tool allowing a user to effectively brush and style hair.
- Brushing and combing help distribute the oil from scalp throughout the hair and keep the hair healthy. Combing helps detangle the hair whereas brushing helps remove the dirt surrounding the hair. In addition to detangling and cleaning the hair, many people like to style hair in particular shapes by applying heat using flat iron, crimping iron, and/or curling iron.
- A drawback of the conventional flat iron, crimping iron, and curling iron is that these tools provide a user with only a limited set of features and styling options. Therefore, a user may require two or more tools to accomplish the hair styling task.
- Technological progress allows engineers to integrate a multitude of hair styling tools into a single tool. As desired, such a tool may be used to straighten, crimp, curl, or otherwise style hair without using another tool. For example, a hair styling tool may include a flat heating surface and a brush arranged so as to allow a user to straighten and brush hair simultaneously.
- In one exemplary embodiment, a hair styling tool of the present invention includes two or more arms pivotally connected at a proximal end thereof. Each arm of the hairstyling tool may have a handle portion and a hair engaging portion. At least two arms of the tool are capable of housing one or more rotatable multipurpose-platforms which are, in turn, capable of holding a plurality of different hair contacting elements selected by a user to accomplish the hair styling task. The hair styling tool also includes one or more motors for rotating the multipurpose platforms directly or indirectly.
- The hair styling tool may further include one or more heating elements for heating the air proximally surrounding the hair engaging portion of the arms, thereby providing the desired amount of heat to style hair. The hair styling tool may also include electrical components and user interface to control the functionality of the motors and the heating elements therein.
- In one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, one or more aforementioned rotatable multipurpose-platforms may be replaced by rotatable cylinders and/or rotatable brushes in order to allow a user to choose a variety of hair contacting elements.
