Hair Straightening With Vapors

Abstract

A system for straightening hair using hair straightening formulation solution vapors, comprising: a hair straightening iron connected to an electricity source, said hair straightening iron comprising a pair of pressing members each having a heating block on its inner surface, the pressing members joined by a hinge, the heating blocks comprising holes connected to vapor conducting tunnels accommodated inside each one of the pressing members; a vapor conducting pipe connected to the tail end of the iron, said vapor conducting pipe opens to the vapor conducting tunnels; and a vaporizer connected to said vapor conducting pipe on its other end, said vaporizer comprising a heating element connected to a source of electricity and a container configured to be heated by said heating element.

         17 . A method of straightening hair using hair straightening formulation solution vapors, comprising:
 providing a solution of hair straightening formulation;   heating said solution to a boiling temperature;   conducting vapors discharged from said boiling solution to a hair straightening iron comprising first holes and second holes;   pressing the hair with said hair straightening iron, whereby said vapors are applied to the hair through said first holes; and   applying suction to said iron through said second holes, whereby toxic fumes are discarded.   
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , further comprising using at least one light source to produce additional heat. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 18 , wherein said at least one light source is mounted in said hair straightening iron. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 18 , wherein said at least one light source is external to said hair straightening iron.
