Abstract
A hair drying curler apparatus comprises a curler body and a curler clip, whereby the curler clip is adapted to snap in place over the curler body with a damp lock of the user's hair captured therebetween. The curler body is formed such that a material having a high-surface area extends about and is bonded to an outer surface of the curler body so as to allow an ample amount of hair drying expediting material to be evenly dispersed therethrough. The curler clip is configured in a similar manner as the curler body, whereby the inner surface of the clip is lined with a material having a high-surface area for hair drying expediting material to be embedded therethrough. Additionally, the curler clip is configured so as to clip a lock of hair on the curler body, and so as to expedite the drying of the damp hair between adjacent curlers. Therefore, when the present apparatus is applied to damp hair, the hair is dried and curled simultaneously.
