Description

Technology area

The claimed utility model relates to the field of hairdressing and can be used when dyeing dry or wet hair to apply the dye composition along the length of the selected strand of hair. For high-quality hair dyeing, it is important not only the choice of the coloring composition, but also the tool with which the composition is applied to the hair. Coloring brushes are characterized by different widths of the working part, which largely determines their specific functionality (from narrow, designed to create color transitions, to wide ones, designed for toning and dyeing long strands), bristle stiffness (from hard, providing good coloring along the length of the hair , to soft, intended for applying the coloring composition in the root zone of the hair), bristle material and handles (silicone, plastic, metal, etc.). Thus, a competent choice of a brush for coloring will allow the stylist to provide a high-quality coloring result on all types of hair.

State of the art

When a stylist is working, each brush is selected individually for the type (technique) of dyeing, the type (for example, liquid, gel) of the paint used, the length and even the stiffness of the hair to be dyed. Numerous dye brush solutions are known in the art for performing various dyeing techniques and on various hair types.

Known classic brushes for applying paint when dyeing hair, including, as a rule, a pointed handle, turning into a wide base with bristles fixed at its end. Such features are characterized, for example, by the following brushes:

https://fastbox.su/profesjonalny-p-dzelek-do-farbowania-w-os-w-35-item-i7723836730.html

The brush has an even, neatly cut contact edge of the bristles, which makes it difficult to transfer paint from the bristles to the hair, since such a brush is characterized by an increased surface area of contact between the bristles of the brush and hair. In addition, the tufts of bristles from adjacent nests are rather tightly intertwined at the ends, making it difficult to transfer paint from the brush to the hair.

The brush, disclosed in the source https://www.wildberries.ru/catalog/9137496/detail.aspx, is made with significant gaps between the tufts of bristles, fixed in adjacent nests, which greatly complicates and lengthens the staining process due to the fact that it is the execution of the brush ensures the capture of only a small volume of the dye composition.

A brush, disclosed in the source https://goldapple.ru/41460200015-dlja-okrashivanija-volos?utm_source=yandex-market&utm_campaign=yandex-market&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=1472&utm_term=414256020003862836 ergonomic elaboration, therefore, as a result of working with such a brush, the stylist's hand is exposed to significant stress. In addition, the brush is also characterized by significant gaps between the tufts of bristles fixed in adjacent nests, which negatively affects the quality of dyeing.

The above technical solutions of brushes for coloring are characterized by a single-row arrangement of bristles, however, adjacent bristle tufts in the known solutions are located either too close to each other, which contributes to the formation of a coloring surface of increased density due to the interlacing of the bristles of adjacent tufts, or too far, with a gap from each other , which does not allow to ensure the uniformity of the coloring layer due to the presence of empty spaces between adjacent beams.

In the first case, due to such a dense layer of the contact edge of the coloring surface, it is difficult to transfer the dye to the hair. In the latter case, among other things, there is no possibility of capturing paint of the required volume due to the flow of paint from adjacent beams that do not touch each other. When capturing a large volume of paint (this is possible, for example, when using thick, gel formulations), there is a risk of a sharp transfer of the entire volume of paint not along the length of the hair strand, but at the very beginning and unevenly, which negatively affects the quality of dyeing.

Brief disclosure of the essence of the utility model

The technical result achieved when using the claimed comb is to provide the possibility of easy and uniform transfer of the coloring composition to the hair, both dry and wet, including due to the optimal shape and arrangement of bristle bundles with a minimum contact edge area, which contributes to the formation in the brush buffer tanks for paint. The inventive solution will allow high-quality coloring of the selected strand of hair with minimal stress on the stylist's hand, does not injure the hair and expands the arsenal of professional well-known hair coloring agents, including dry ones.

The claimed technical result is achieved by the fact that in a brush for dyeing hair, including a handle with a pointed end, passing into the base, from the end side of which bundles of bristles are fixed in a row of nests, according to the technical solution, the nests of the brush are arranged so that adjacent nests can be formed between the tufts of bristles reservoirs for buffering paint, while the bristles are made of different sizes and are fixed in the base of the brush with the formation of an uneven outer contact edge of the brush, the diameter of the nests does not exceed 4 mm, and the distance between adjacent nests is 2-3 mm, and the length of the handle and the length of the base are selected to ensure placing the center of gravity of the hand in the zone of transition of the handle to the base. The surface of the handle is partially grainy. The bristles of the hand are made of nylon and are 3-5 mm long.

By forming tufts of bristles that fluff towards the ends as a result of using bristles of different lengths in one bundle, it was possible to form an integral contact row of ends of the bristles, which ensure transfer of dye to the hair. In addition, due to this shape of the bristle tufts, buffer reservoirs are formed between adjacent tufts, capable of accumulating paint when the brush is placed in the volume with the dye composition. The presence of such buffer tanks, among other things, contributes to a greater capture of the dye composition. By using bristles of different lengths, the minimum possible contact area of the bristles with the scalp and hair is obtained, as a result of which the dye is easily transferred from the buffer reservoirs to the hair.

In this case, the distance between the nests, as well as their diameter, are selected to ensure that the volume of paint accumulated by the brush is preserved, and to prevent its premature outflow. Geometric relationships, including the lengths of the bristles, base, and handle, are empirically selected to ensure that the center of gravity of the brush is located in the zone of narrowing of the handle to the base, which contributes to the optimal pressure of the brush on the human skin when applying paint, and also facilitates the stylist's work.

Implementation of the utility model

The inventive brush for coloring is a convenient universal stylist's tool used to select strands of hair and apply a dye composition to the selected strand. The brush is used as a paint conveyor, mainly for working on dry hair.

The claimed product consists of a handle 1, smoothly turning into a base 3, at the end 5 of which bristles are fixed 7. The handle of the brush is made with a pointed elongated end 2, which provides a clear separation of the strands and has a small recess in the central part for placing the stylist's finger in order to ensure easy grip brushes in the process. The longer pointed end provides the longest, clearest possible strand separation. The area of the handle from the pointed end to the grip area of the brush 7 is made smooth, which facilitates quick and easy sliding of the handle between the separating strands of hair at the first stage of using the brush. The area of the handle from the central part to the base 3 is made with a grainy surface on both sides, which helps to reduce the sliding of the brush in the stylist's hands during work, and also allows the brush to be used at different angles of inclination to the human scalp. All contours of extensions and contractions are smooth, without sharp corners and size differences. Thus, the handle of the inventive hand has a profile designed to provide a high degree of ergonomics when placed in the hand. The base of the hand is low and is intended for fixing the bristles in the nests. In addition, the selected height (length) of the base, as well as the length of the bristles and the length of the handle ensure that the center of gravity of 4 hands is located in this zone (the interface between the base and the handle), which speeds up work and reduces the stress on the stylist's hand during work, since there is no need additional pressure during staining and, at the same time, excessive pressure with a brush on the scalp is not allowed. The balanced ratio of the length of the base and the handle, providing such a center of gravity, is from 1: 4 to 1: 5, depending on the material of manufacture of the hand. For example, for a plastic brush, this ratio is about 1: 4.5. The sides of the base and the handle of the hand are rounded to ensure the safety of its use. At the end of the base 6, a number of holes are made, which are nests for fixing the bristles. In this case, the nests are evenly spaced at a distance of 2-3 mm from each other, and the diameter of the nests does not exceed 4 mm. The nests contain bundles of bristles of different lengths, the average length of the bristles is 3-5 cm. The bristles are usually made of nylon, which combines the hardness of metal and the softness of silicone. The thickness of the bristles in one bunch can be either the same or different. Such a design of the bristles ensures the formation of an uneven outer contact edge of the brush 8, which is necessary for the passage of air and the ease of the process of transferring the dye to the hair. The ends of the bristles are made thinner, which provides soft touch of the brush to the scalp, without irritation with blunt ends of the bristles and does not injure it with their cut edges. In addition, the thin ends of the bristles also facilitate the penetration of air between them, helping to reduce the contact surface of the bristles and hair. The different size of the bristles along the length is achieved due to the method of forming the brush - a certain volume of bristles (bundle) is collected, bent in half and fixed in the nest of the brush. Due to the bending of the tuft, the bristles are slightly displaced along their length to one side or the other, which provides the effect of an uneven edge of the resulting tuft of bristles. In this case, the bristles installed in one nest, due to their different dimensions, form tufts slightly diverging towards the ends. The distance between adjacent nests and the length of the bristles of one tuft are selected to form a solid contact edge of the hand. The bristles of adjacent tufts are located so that they only touch each other, do not intersect and, moreover, do not form free spaces between the bristles of adjacent tufts. That is, such a formed contact edge of the brush bristles ensures the transfer of an even uniform layer of paint, since the bristles easily, without obstacles, move apart with a slight pressure, passing the paint onto the hair, at the same time, preventing excess paint from falling onto the hair.

The arrangement and the selected sizes of the nests and bristles together make it possible to form between the bristles 7 installed in them a certain free volume intended for filling it with paint (buffer reservoirs). Such reservoirs are limited by the end face of the base, as well as by the bristles of three adjacent nests (two nests of one row and one of the other). These buffer zones allow paint (eg, gel or liquid formulations) to accumulate in them, which is not possible with a conventional brush. By opening the adjacent bundles of bristles, the buffer with paint is sealed and the density of the contact edge of the brush is leveled. With light brush pressure, the bristles move apart, releasing paint from the buffer zones.

The claimed brush works as follows.

The pointed tip of the brush handle is used to separate the strand to be dyed. A handle is passed between the strands to the grip zone, which will make it possible to separate the hair strand as comfortably as possible (in the washing area, such a handle design facilitates easy opening of the gap between the hair). The bristles of the brush pick up paint, as a result of which the paint is not only on the outer contact edge of the brush, but also is recruited into the buffer zones formed by the connecting bristles of adjacent nests. The fluffy ends of the bristles of adjacent nests close together and clog the buffer zones, preventing premature flow of ink. The brush is oriented with the outer contact edge to the scalp and is passed along the selected strand for direct transfer of the dye to the hair, and then the brush is turned over and passed through the hair, finally emptying the buffer reservoirs. At the same time, the volume of paint contained in the buffer zones of the brush is easily transferred to the hair, ensuring their rapid dyeing. If necessary, brush along the strand several times. Thus, the brush, due to the different-sized bristles of different rows, allows you to simultaneously transfer the required amount of paint to the hair and distribute it, stretch it along the length of the strand, which significantly speeds up the work due to the most complete and uniform transfer of paint to the hair.

An example of a specific implementation

In accordance with the claimed design, a brush is made with a handle 166 mm long, base 34 mm high, 70 mm wide. At the end of the base (8.2 mm wide), bristles of different sizes of equal thickness are fixed in 12 nests. The diameter of the sockets is 3.5 mm.

The inventive brush is convenient to use due to the balanced ratios of the lengths of the main parts of the brush, which ensures the optimal position of the center of gravity of the brush and, as a consequence, the optimal pressure on the hair during coloring. And the formation of buffer zones due to the optimal location of the nests with bristles allows for easier and higher quality (uniform) dyeing on dry hair, which is unattainable with known brushes.
