AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is a simple hair removal device that is easy to use with minimal moving parts. It is designed to remove facial hair and is made of lightweight metal or nylon to resist wear and tear. The device includes a twined section and a movable member that helps to retract the twined section towards the inner side during use. The method involves holding the device and resting it on the hairy surface, then moving the movable member in a reciprocating motion to engage and remove the hair. The device can be optionally used with a second hand to stretch the hairy surface for better hair engagement.

Problems solved by technology

Shaving however easily cuts the skin and may require daily shaves.
The results are often rather short-lived.
Besides, this is not a practical method for precisely removing individual hairs.
Such depilation method may however cause chemical burns or allergic reactions.
Besides, this treatment being on the surface, the results may be inconsistent or short-lived, requiring frequent applications of the chemicals.
Using such chemicals on the face is generally too harsh.
Tweezers are often used for uprooting each hair individually, but is time-consuming and imprecise.
Such methods are imprecise, painful and the top layer of the skin may also get stripped along with the hair.
The availability of such service is generally limited in most countries and often not convenient to access.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]The following description presents several preferred embodiments of the present invention in sufficient detail such that those skilled in the art can make and use the invention.

[0037]The embodiments of the present invention provide a device particularly (though not exclusively) for self use, for engaging and uprooting body hair. The device is simple to operate, whether manually or by electrical means. The device has a simple construction and has minimal moving parts, particularly in the region resting on the body for removing hair. Hence, the device is particularly suitable for removing facial hair, such as for eyebrow shaping, for clearing upper lip hair and for clearing side cheek hair. Although the device is self usable, it can also be used on another body, whether for private or for commercial application like in beauty parlors.

[0038]FIG. 2 illustrates a method of use of the device (200), according to an embodiment of the invention. The device (200) is hand held either for...

Abstract

Hair removing device (200) comprising a base member (301) having two elongate arms (302) extending outwardly while maintaining a spacing (310) in between. Two elongate flexible elements (311) form a twined section (304) between their first and second ends (303), (305) that are secured to the two arms (302). The twined section (304) is positioned in the spacing (310), under a tension. A movable member (306) extends outwardly from the base member (301) and is movable relative to the base member (301) in forward and reverse strokes. The movable member (306) urges the twined section (304) to move forward during the forward stroke and releases the twined section (304) to resiliently retract during the reverse stroke. The twined section (304) can engage and uproot hair (314) during the forward stroke.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates generally to the field of hair removing devices and particularly to devices for uprooting facial hair.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Removing hair from various parts of the body particularly for cosmetic reasons, is a common practice among women as well as men. Many remove hair from the facial area, like for shaping the eyebrows, for clearing the upper lip hair and for clearing the side cheeks. A common method of removing unwanted hair at skin level is by shaving, by using a razor or other types of blades. Shaving however easily cuts the skin and may require daily shaves. The results are often rather short-lived. Besides, this is not a practical method for precisely removing individual hairs. Another method is to apply chemicals to the skin for dissolving or burning out unwanted hair. Such depilation method may however cause chemical burns or allergic reactions. Besides, this treatment being on the surface, the results may ...
