SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The Pro Attachable Quick Dry Diffuser is a device that fits around the base of beauty salons' professional hooded dryers. The diffuser, while attached to the hooded dryer, places no extra pressure on the dryer's motor, but is designed to save energy and speed hair drying. The diffuser is made of a durable soft plastic material that is heat resistanct, water repellent, and fits comfortably around the patron's ears and hair line. The diffuser attaches to hooded dryers with a drawstring and opens and closes in the front with velcro fasteners. The diffuser also contains extra large eyelets to eliminate excess hot air.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Referring now to the drawing for a better understanding of my invention in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, we see the diffuser that is made of a soft durable plastic material that is heat resistant and water repellent (1). The measurements of the diffuser are 81/2 to 14 inches in length, 40 to 48 inches wide at the top, and 25 to 42 inches wide at the bottom. (2) Sewn around the inner top of the diffuser is a 11/2 inch hem that contains a 1/8 to 1/4 inch drawstring that secures the diffuser to the hooded dryer, shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3. The drawstring enters and exits (3) from the hem through two small holes, which are covered by small to medium eyelets, located 13/4 to 21/2 inches from both ends, causing the device to unite, fitting tightly to the hooded dryer as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3. The string is then tied into a bow. (4) the diffuser opens and closes in the front, from top to bottom, by strips of velcro. The strips of velcro are parallel from top to bottom. There are two parallel strips on the right outer side used for adjusting the diffuser for different head sizes and one parallel strip on the left inner side used for attaching to the right side. The velcro on the right side measures in width from 2 to 21/2 inches and the left side strip measures in width from 1 to 11/2 inches. The velcro opening also provides the patron easy movement to and from the dryer and will not interfere with rollers that are placed in the hair as shown in FIG. 1. At the bottom of the diffuser is a 1 to 11/2 hem (5) that contains a durable elastic band that enables the diffuser to fit snugly but comfortably around the patron's ears and hair line as shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3. The elastic band that is contained in the hem is 1 to 11/2 inches wide. By fitting snugly, the diffuser is able to eliminate the flow of excess hot air to the patron's eyes and face which becomes very irritating over a period of minutes. The diffuser contours around the ears allowing them to be fully exposed so patrons are able to hold a conversation with other patrons sitting across or on either side of them. The body of the diffuser (6) contains 15-25 large to extra large eyelets (plastic or metal) to help hot air escape and prevent overheating of the hair and head. Overall the diffuser saves energy and the time a patron has to spend under a dryer. The patron's time is cut in half. The diffuser can also be attached and removed with ease to clean excess oil, makeup, etc., that would otherwise cause sanitary problems.
