Benefits of technology

The present invention is a tool for picking up small bundles of hair. It has a base, an upright stem, and a stick-shaped pickup portion. The pickup portion sticks out from the stem at an angle of between 10 and 70 degrees. The pickup portion has hair-holding protrusions that face the base of the tool. This tool is designed to make it easier and more comfortable to pick up hair.

Problems solved by technology

Moreover, the operation of picking up the bundles of hair each consisting of a plurality of strands of hair as streaks by using the claw portions provided at the leading end of the handle portion or the stick member is not easy and requires experience and skill.
Often it is difficult to pick up bundles of hair each consisting of an appropriate amount of hair through a single pickup operation.
The result is uneven application of the dye and a undesirable appearance.

first embodiment

[0021]Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on preferred embodiments thereof, with reference to the drawings. A hair pickup tool 10 according to a preferred first embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 1(a) is used when partially dyeing hair by applying a hair dye, for example, which serves as a hair treatment agent, in producing streaks to the hair. The hair pickup tool 10 of the first embodiment makes it possible to gather and pick up an appropriate plurality of strands of hair in a streak as a bundle of hair, thereby facilitating the operation of partially dyeing the hair in a streak by applying the hair dye to the bundle of hair that has been picked up. The hair pickup tool 10 of the first embodiment has the function of making it possible to efficiently pick up strands of hair 61 in a deep section near the scalp 60 as a bundle of hair by, for example, pressing a leading end portion 10a of the hair pickup tool 10 against the scalp 60 (see FIG. 3) o...

second embodiment

[0039]In the hair pickup tool 20 of the second embodiment, a stick-shaped pickup portion 23b which is at least one (one) of a plurality (two) of stick-shaped pickup portions 23a and 23b projects obliquely sideways at an angle θ of inclination that is different from the angle θ of inclination of the stick-shaped pickup portion 23a which is the other (the other one) of the plurality (two) of stick-shaped pickup portions 23a and 23b. The angle θ of inclination of stick-shaped pickup portion 23b and the angle θ of inclination of the stick-shaped pickup portion 23a are the angle of inclination relative to the plane that is perpendicular to the upright extending direction X of the upright stem portion 12 In addition, the angle θ of inclination of the stick-shaped pickup portion 23b that is disposed at the leading end side of the upright stem portion 12 is larger than the angle θ of inclination of the stick-shaped pickup portion 23a that is disposed at the base end portion side (base porti...

fifth embodiment

[0049]That is to say, in the fifth embodiment, an upright stem portion 52 extending upright from the base portion 11 includes, as also shown in FIGS. 8(a) and 8(b), a pair of upright plate portions 52a that are arranged so as to face each other and a pair of connecting plate portions 52b that connect lateral side edge portions of the pair of upright plate portions 52a on both lateral sides and that have a lower height than the upright plate portions 52a. A total of four lined-up pickup portions 54 are provided as two pairs, the lined-up pickup portions 54 being disposed along respective lateral side edge portions on both lateral sides of surfaces of the pair of upright plate portions 52a, the surfaces being on the opposite side to opposing surfaces of the pair of upright plate portions 52a and being arranged back-to-back. Each pair of lined-up pickup portions 54 provided on a corresponding one of the upright plate portions 52a are arranged side-by-side so as to extend parallel to ea...

Abstract

A hair pickup tool for picking up strands of hair as a bundle of hair includes a base portion, an upright stem portion extending upright from the base portion, and a stick-shaped pickup portion projecting from the upright stem portion. The stick-shaped pickup portion extends obliquely sideways from the upright stem portion toward the side opposite to the base portion at an angle of inclination of 10 to 70 degrees relative to a plane that is perpendicular to an upright extending direction of the upright stem portion. The stick-shaped pickup portion is provided with one or two or more hair holding protrusions protruding toward the base portion side.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a hair pickup tool for picking up strands of hair as a bundle of hair.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]When dyeing hair at home, beauty salons, and the like, there are cases where the hair is not entirely dyed but partially dyed in streaks, often referred to as highlighting or lowlighting. In such cases generally a method is adopted by use of a specialized tool in which claw portions in the form of protrusions are provided at a leading end of a handle portion of a comb or at a leading end of a knitting needle-like stick member. Bundles of hair each consisting of a plurality of strands of hair are picked up as streaks by these claw portions, the bundles of hair are held on other strands of hair by using a clip or the like as necessary, and the bundles of hair are individually dyed.[0003]Moreover, the operation of picking up the bundles of hair each consisting of a plurality of strands of hair as streaks by using the claw po...
