Assignee:
Sage Products, Inc. - Crystal Lake IL
International Classification:
A45D 1918
US Classification:

Abstract:
A head bathing system for haircare. The system is composed of an outer cap having a head-receiving aperture, an inner, absorbent liquid-holding layer, and a flexible gathering for the cap at the aperture. The liquid-holding layer is impregnated with a cleansing solution. To clean a person's hair, the system is applied to the person's head, which is massaged through the cap to cause the cleansing solution to wet the person's hair. After sufficient cleaning, the system is removed from the person's head. Because of the nature of the liquid-holding layer, it reabsorbs much of the cleansing solution before the system is removed from the person's head.
