Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2296180A] A wrap for a head of long hair is formed as a pouch by two elongate towelling sheet-sections 1 and 2 of tapering crescent shape that are stitched together along an outwardly-curving seam 3. An open-mouth cap portion 6 receives the crown of the head, and a fillet 10 stitched between inwardly-curved elasticated edges 4 of the sheet-sections 1 and 2 defines a pocket 11 for receiving and enveloping the hair within a lower tail portion 7 of the pouch. The tail portion 7 is wound upon itself to twist the enveloped hair tightly within the wrap, and then folded over the cap portion 6 for retention there using an elastic loop 12. The mouth of the pocket 11 may be closed up onto the hair using a draw string (17, Fig 4), and closed from use using a press-stud fastening (14, 16). <IMAGE>
