Devices and methods for styling hair, and in particular, to devices and methods for styling hair using electrolysis are described herein. A method for styling hair includes arranging a section of hair between a first electrode and a second electrode. The section of hair is contacted with an electrolyte before being arranged between the first and second electrodes, after being arranged between the first and second electrodes, and/or concurrently with being arranged between the first and second electrodes. The method further includes causing the first electrode to have a first negative potential, and causing the second electrode to have a second potential, such that the absolute value of the first negative potential is greater than the absolute value of the second potential, and such that the difference in electrical potential between the first electrode and the second electrode creates an electrolysis zone between the first electrode and the second electrode.

Systems and apparatuses to apply a material to a nail are herein disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include apparatus having a receiving unit adapted to receive or hold an external device, an applicator unit to apply the material to the nail, and/or a position aiding unit operably coupled to the applicator unit. In operation, the position aiding unit facilitates positioning of the nail relative to the applicator unit and the applicator unit applies the material to the nail. In one embodiment, the apparatus further includes an imaging unit to capture an image of the nail and external device includes a mobile phone. The imaging unit can include a back-facing camera of the mobile phone.

A hair curling rod device for creating tight spiral curls for all hair textures, with or without the use of heat includes a top member and a bottom member. The top member has a relatively flat orientation and a flat bottom side. The bottom member has a convex orientation to the top member and a substantially circular cross-section. The top member is connected to the bottom member at a first end by a U-shaped connection. The U-shaped connection biases the top member toward the bottom member. The top member has a first length and the bottom member has a second length. Where the second length is longer than the first length, where the bottom member extends beyond the top member at a second end. The bottom member has an upward angled portion at the second end where the bottom member extends beyond the top member at the second end.

A hair styling device for styling curly or wavy hair. The hair styling device includes a body and a plurality of tines extending from a proximate end of the body, wherein each of the plurality of tines have a same length as measured from a proximal end to an opposing distal end of a tine. The tines are rigid and non-flexible to facilitate the manipulation and styling of curly hair. In some embodiments, the tines are angled such that the proximal end of the tine extends from a first side of the body and the distal end of the tine is disposed on a second side of the body, wherein the first side and second side are opposite one another. In other embodiments, the tines include an arcuate configuration. The configuration of the tines allows for various manipulation of hair to provide differently styled curls or wavy features.
