Abstract

A multiple hair setting roller heating and facial steaming apparatus includes a housing, an enclosure, a heating module, a heating element, at least one outlet and a hood. The housing defines a receptacle for receiving and holding a quantity of a desired liquid and defines a platform. The enclosure has an open bottom and defines an interior chamber. The enclosure is mounted to and extends downwardly from the platform of the housing and into the receptacle of the housing below the surface of the quantity of liquid in the receptacle such that air is captured in the interior chamber of the enclosure. The heating module is mounted to the platform of the housing and extends downwardly therefrom within the interior chamber of the enclosure. The heating module has a passage and an inlet extending below the open bottom of the enclosure so as to provide direct flow communication of liquid from the receptacle of the housing to the passage of the heating module bypassing the interior chamber of the enclosure. The heating element is mounted in the passage of the heating module and is operable to convert the liquid to vapor therein. The outlet extends from the platform of the housing so as to support a hair setting roller and to provide flow communication of the vapor from the passage of the heating module to above the platform of the housing for heating the roller with the vapor and for use as a source of steam above the platform. The hood is in the form of a tubular body which interfits with the housing and receives the source of steam and defines an open portion conforming to a chin and face of a woman.
