Hair freedom customizable tunnel system, method, device and kit

Abstract

The present invention is directed to an aid to help consumers with long hair to more efficiently and evenly dry their hair at one time. A system, device, technique and kit are envisioned that allow a consumer to either adapt existing hair drying equipment for this enhanced purpose or provide entirely new systems or kits to enable the consumer to evenly dry their hair. Extension members threadably engage to each other and a hair dryer or bonnet, the combined elements when mounted to or on a stand allow a user to control, adjust and guide the airflow around long hair of the user inserted into a tunnel portion of the extension members. A heat distribution conduit provides even heat to the deployed hair, and a stand or mount are employed to stabilize the assembly.

         6 . The hair drying system according to  claim 4 , wherein said first extension member attached to said bonnet has a tapered diameter, and said second extension member attached to said first extension member has a tapered diameter, the diameter of said first extension member being greater than the diameter of said second extension member. 
     
     
         7 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of said bonnet and said at least two extension members is made from a plastic material. 
     
     
         8 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of said bonnet and said at least two extension members is made from stainless steel. 
     
     
         9 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of a blower, bonnet and said at least two extension members include threads configured for threaded engagement. 
     
     
         10 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , wherein said plurality of perforations allow said heated or unheated air to escape through said perforations and dry said hair. 
     
     
         11 . The hair drying system according to claim  11 , further comprising:
 a plug, said plug configured to attach to a terminal end of said at least two extension members,   whereby said heat distribution conduit is closed, allowing all of said heated or unheated air therein to escape through said plurality of perforations.   
     
     
         12 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of said perforations includes an angled director therein, said angled director directing the heated or unheated air. 
     
     
         13 . The hair drying system according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a stand, said stand configured to connect to said bonnet and at least one of said at least two extension members,   whereby said bonnet and said at least two extension members are secured to said stand by a plurality of clasps during operation of said hair drying system.   
     
     
         14 . The hair drying system according to  claim 13 , further comprising:
 a height adjuster, whereby the user can adjust the height of the stand.   
     
     
         15 . The hair drying system according to  claim 13 , further comprising:
