  • the longitudinal lip portion 202 is shown as a flat portion, i.e. is straight in cross-section, the skilled person should appreciate that the longitudinal lip portion 202 can be arcuate in cross-section. In this respect, the longitudinal lip portion 202 can arc about the tubular portion 102 as opposed to arcing away from the tubular portion 102.
  • a side of the tubular body 102 can comprise a longitudinal recess 302. The longitudinal recess 302 or indent is curved in cross-section and serves to prevent unintentional rotational slippage of the tubular body 102 around the finger inserted therein.
  • the longitudinal recess 302 serves to provide comfortable abutment of a digitus secundus or so-called "index finger" against the tubular body 102 if required. Furthermore, the longitudinal recess 302 serves to orientate the tubular body 302 carrying the abutting surface 1 14 at an optimal angle for overlaying strands of hair over the longitudinal lip portion 202. In another example, a number of longitudinal recesses can extend along the length of the tubular body 102 so that the user can select a preferred orientation of the abutting surface 1 14. Also, the longitudinal recess 302 can be used, if appropriately sited, for abutment with another finger, for example a digitus quartus or ring finger. Furthermore, another recess can be disposed approximately diametrically opposite the longitudinal recess 302 for location of another finger.

  • the longitudinal lip portion 202 carries a longitudinally extending dovetail groove 400 and the tubular body 102 carries a longitudinally extending dovetail tongue 500.
  • the longitudinal lip portion 202 can thus be attached to the tubular body 102 by sliding the longitudinal lip potion 202 onto the tubular body 102 by means of the sliding dovetail joint.
  • differently coloured longitudinal lip portions can be provided for selective use.
  • the weaving assistance apparatus 200 can be modified by a user, for example the colour technician, in order to select a suitable contrasting background for the strands of hair to be woven by selecting an appropriately coloured longitudinal lip portion.

  • the longitudinal lip portions can be disposable for hygiene purposes.
  • the other techniques for varying the contrasting background colour described above can be employed in relation to the removable longitudinal lip portion 202.
  • the weaving assistance apparatus 100, 200 can be provided in different lengths to fit different lengths of fingers.
  • the length of the longitudinal lip portion can be varied.
  • the weaving assistance apparatus 100, 200 is placed over the middle finger 600 of a hand 602 of the hair colour technician or hair stylist and the index finger 604 is urged against the tubular body 102. If present, the index finger can lie against the longitudinal recess 302.
  • a section of hair strands 606 from a head of a person where hair is to be treated are brought to overlie the upwardly facing abutting surface 1 14 so that the colour technician can easily visually identify strands of hair of a first colour overlying the abutting surface 1 14 that need to be selected from the remaining strands of hair of a second colour overlying the abutting surface 1 14.
  • Recognition of the strands of hair of the first colour i.e.
  • the abutting surface 1 14 can be enhanced by provision of lateral or transverse grooves (not shown) therein.
  • the grooves can have a depth of less than about 3mm, for example about 1 mm.
  • the abutting surface 1 14 can be coated with a friction reducing or low friction material, for example polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sold under the brand name Teflon ® by DuPont or any other suitable chemical, for example perfluoroalkoxy polymer resin (PFA) or fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP), in order to improve so-called "glide" of hair over the abutting surface 1 14.

  • the strands of hair are separated with respect to an initial plane in which they were lying and a clearance 706 is thereby formed through which the metal tail 708 of the metal-ended tail comb 710 can be inserted or slid, thereby facilitating weaving of the hair.
