About Polygon مشبك شعر
"بوليجون" مشبك شعر مصمم لتصفيف الشعر اليومي. يختلف شكل الأسنان وتوزيعها عن تلك الموجودة في مشابك الشعر التقليدية، مما يتيح إمساك كمية أكبر من الشعر. ويحظى شكل الأسنان وطريقة توزيعها بحماية براءات اختراع في الولايات المتحدة واليابان. صُنعت المجموعة من الألمنيوم، مما يقلل وزنها مقارنةً بالمشابك المعدنية السابقة. ويبقى الجسم الأخف ثباتًا في مكانه لفترة أطول ويحد من الانزعاج الناتج عن المشابك الثقيلة. طُوِّر الشكل باستخدام التصميم بمساعدة الحاسوب، ثم نُفِّذ عبر قوالب مطاطية وتقنية الصب.
