The present invention relates in general to a hand-held hair removal article. More specifically, the invention relates to a shaped flexible article adapted to scoop a hair removal compound, apply the hair removal compound to a hair removal area, and remove the hair removal compound and hair from the hair removal area.

A hair remover is provided, including a main body, a positioning member, a mounting member and a blade assembly. The positioning member is mounted on the main body. The mounting member has one end connected to the blade assembly and one other end received in the positioning member and movably connected thereto. The mounting member defines a receiving chamber. At least one through hole communicating with the receiving chamber is defined on a periphery of the mounting member. The mounting member is slidable to enable the positioning member to completely cover the through hole.

The invention relates to a pan for depilatory wax, consisting of a container (2) and a handle (3) made of a material suitable for withstanding direct contact with flames, incandescent resistance and glass ceramic surfaces that reach high temperatures, as well as for the flow therethrough of electromagnetic waves of a microwave oven without absorbing energy. The container (2) and the handle (3) can be made of aluminum, ceramic, tempered glass or Pyrex®-type glass. The handle (3) is fixed, collapsible or foldable on the container (2) and is coated with a layer (4) of insulating and protective material, preferably silicone or Bakelite.

The invention relates to a skin treatment device comprising a handle with an energy supply, an application head with at least one heat source comprising at least one semiconductor light source, and at least one heat sink comprising cooling fins. The heat sink is located remote from the heat source within the handle. Further, the heat source is thermally connected to the heat sink by means of a heat transfer system (6, 6′, 6″) which comprises a hermetically sealed tubular body containing a working medium, wherein the pressure within the tubular body is chosen such that the working medium is a saturated liquid at room temperature and may be vaporized by the heat source.

A depilatory wax applying device includes: a housing provided with a feed port and a discharge port; a conveying channel provided in the housing, the conveying channel including a guiding tube, a heat insulation tube, and a heating tube that are connected successively, the guiding tube corresponding to the feed port, and the heating tube corresponding to the discharge port; a wax strip pushing device provided between the feed port and the guiding tube and configured to push a wax strip into the guiding tube; and a control device provided in the housing and electrically connected to the heating tube and the wax strip pushing device.

System and method for improving the shaving experience by providing improved visibility of the skin shaving area. A digital camera is integrated with the electric shaver for close image capturing of shaving area, and displaying it on a display unit. The display unit can be integral part of the electric shaver casing, or housed in a separated device which receives the image via a communication channel. The communication channel can be wireless (using radio, audio or light) or wired, such as dedicated cabling or using powerline communication. A light source is used to better illuminate the shaving area. Video compression and digital image processing techniques are used for providing for improved shaving results. The wired communication medium can simultaneously be used also for carrying power from the electric shaver assembly to the display unit, or from the display unit to the electric shaver.

A hair removal and re-growth suppression apparatus (10) constituted of: a control circuitry (70); a removal and suppression head (20); an extender assembly (23) coupled to the head (20) and extending away from a wall of the head (20) towards an end thereof, the extender assembly defining an opening (17) at an end thereof removed from the wall of the head (20); an irradiating element (40) secured to the head (20) responsive to the control circuitry (70); a reflector (90) disposed on the head (20) between the irradiating element (40) and the head (20); and a cutting element (110) secured to the head (20) and arranged to cut hair when the opening (17) is juxtaposed with a skin portion (140) having a hair (150) extending outward there from, wherein the reflector (90) is arranged to substantially reflect the output electromagnetic radiation toward the opening (17). Optionally, the irradiating element (40) is regularly translated between a first and a second position to heat and cut the hair without damaging the skin.
