Hair Brush Systems

Abstract

Hairbrushes having removable handles, kits, methods of use, and methods of sale are provided. The hairbrushes attach to the handles with a rod-and-ratchet system that requires zero insertion or removal force between the brush-head and the handle. The rod-and-ratchet system is actuated with a button on the handle. The kits comprise brush-heads, at least one handle, and a container. The method involves creating a hairstyle for a customer using the brushes and then providing the customer a custom kit of the same types of brushes for use at home.
