Abstract

A heat activated form fitting hair cap to protect the hair and to retain hair products in close proximity to the hair. A loosely fitted hair cap is made from a heat activated shrink-wrap material that may be substantially moisture and gas resistant. The cap is placed over the hair, and optionally, secured with a variety of retention means such as elastic, drawstrings, or ties. Upon application of heat, normally from a hair dryer, at or slightly above the activation temperature of the plastic, the shrink-wrap material is activated and shrinks snugly about the hair. This effectuates both a protection of the hair, and a tendency to trap and retain hair treatment products that might have been applied to the hair. Options include pouches containing releasable hair treatment products on the inside of the cap and tear away areas to customize the size of the cap to the wearer.
