Additionally a removable storage means is provided to receive curlers and to allow the same to be transported to a washing area for cleaning prior to reuse. Finally the improved permanent wave cape of the present invention is so designed that it can act as a cover or heat bag to prevent heat loss during the setting of the permanent prior to neutralization thereof.
