Suction Powered Hair-Styling Device

摘要

A portable hair-styling device is provided for creating attractive ponytails. The device has a primary housing containing a motor, an impeller, a blocking flap, and a filter screen. Connecting to the primary housing is a flexible hose, a plurality of styling tubes, and one or more elastic bands. When powered on, a partial vacuum is generated within the flexible hose and the styling tube attached thereto. The free end of the styling tube is moved around the base of the stylee's neck to gather loose hair into the tube, and an elastic band is then positioned on the captured length of hair. The device operator releases the captured hair by depressing a release button on the housing, which engages the blocking flap and temporarily disrupts the flow of air from the flexible hose. After hair is removed from the styling tube it remains styled in a neat ponytail.
