Abstract
Abstract A disposable cape particularly for hairdressing salons, beauty shops and the like. The capes are manufactured in a continuous long strip of a flexible material which is resistent to chemicals normally used in a beauty salon such as polyethlene or polyvinylchloride. This long strip is provided with a large number of perforated rows which are perpendicular to the edges of the strip and divides the strip into a large number of capes. The distance between the perforated rows is the length of the cape and the width of the strip is the width of the cape. Each cape section is provided with a perforated neck opening outline which is spaced from one of the rows and is connected thereto with a perforated slit outline.
