Abstract
An improved hair styling device comprises heating elements and heat retaining clips inside the device's housing. The clips present concave inner faces, and form an enclosed space when in a closed position. A heat retaining means with an elevated heat capacity is incorporated into the clips adjacent the inner surface of the jaws of the clips; and also presents a concave surface to the inside of the clips when in a closed position. The heating elements comprise elongated heating rods with multiple heating locations along their length. Each heating location comprises an enlarged convex area on the surface of the heating rods. The heating locations are complimentary to the shape of the heat retaining means, and therefore heat the clips quickly and evenly.
