Abstract
A hairstyling device, preferably a hair crimper, is provided with a stationary jaw member having an aluminum plate which heats up either by a self-contained fuel burner or by electrical power and, in cooperation with a movable jaw member, styles hair to conform to a predetermined desired shape. The outside surfaces of the movable and stationary jaw members are provided with a set of spaced upwardly extending ribs, which serve both to allow finger contacting and manipulation of the jaw members of the device and, in addition, allow for efficient heat radiation so that the outside surface of the jaw members does not get uncomfortably hot.
