Abstract:

An eye shield, particularly directed to hair spraying and styling, provides a transparent lens portion fitted with a resilient peripheral seal forming a wall surrounding the eyes and conforming to facial contours so as to effectively protect the eyes from exposure to hair spray or other airborne substances. The shield is fitted with side arms which press inwardly against the temples to hold it in place without interfering with the styling of the hair. The shield provides convenient eye protection suited to many activities involving airborne sprays, including professional hair styling, and is particulary beneficial in enabling a person doing his or her own hair styling to apply hair spray and to simultaneously view the progress of the styling continuously while having full use of both hands for the spraying and styling without risk of eye damage or irritation from the spray.
