A drawing apparatus includes a drawing unit for drawing on a nail of an object which is a finger or a toe by applying ink, an object suppression unit for applying a suppression force to suppress a motion of the object to the object, and a nail region detection unit for detecting a region of the nail. The drawing apparatus sets the suppression force to a first suppression force in at least one of a first period of the drawing unit drawing on the nail and a second period of the nail region detection unit detecting the region of the nail, and sets the suppression force to a second suppression force which is weaker than the first suppression force or sets the motion of the object to be not suppressed in a third period of the ink applied to the nail being dried.

To deposit a photochromic substance 3 on a surface-forming portion 1 of an object; and, when light in an ultraviolet range 5 is projected onto the surface of the deposited photochromic substance 3 to change the color of the photochromic substance 3 by photochromism, cover the deposited photochromic substance 3 with a wavelength-cutoff agent 4 that blocks wavelengths in an ultraviolet spectrum contained in natural light and/or illumination light.

An apparatus is provided for providing nail or skin treatment. The apparatus includes a container, formed of a compressible material; an insert, disposed within the container formed of a compressible material, and configured to receive and surround at least one body part of the user; and an opening at a first end of the container which provides access to an interior surface of the insert, wherein the insert is configured to hold at least one substance configured to treat at least one of a nail and skin of the user.

An ultrasonic device evaluates the sound velocity of a nail to determine the overall health of a patient and to monitor cosmetological effects of certain products on the nail. The ultrasonic device includes a handhold probe having an piezoelectric transducer encased in cover that emits high-frequency ultrasonic impulses directed towards the nail. The nail reflects returning ultrasonic echoes back to the piezoelectric transducer. The returning ultrasonic echoes vibrate the piezoelectric transducer. A processor of a computer converts the vibrations into electrical pulses. The processor evaluates amplitude values of the electrical pulses to determine the parameters of the human nail, including the thickness, density and elasticity. The parameters are displayed on a display and analyzed by a technician to determine the nail condition. The health of the person or the effect of products on the nail can be determined based on the nail parameters.

An optical shaping apparatus includes: a light source unit that outputs collimated light; an optical function unit that is disposed on an optical path of the collimated light and modulates the optical path or a phase of the collimated light; and a control unit that controls operation of the optical function unit, to irradiate a target surface with modulated light produced in the optical function unit.

The disclosure, aka Magic Hands in the only manicure procedure device developed specifically to facilitate a quality beauty treatment for clients and the manicurist. The Magic Hands is uniquely designed to offer a hand rest that will provide comfort and simplify the manicure process as well as come in an array of colors. The manicure station as disclosed includes a hand rest configured in the shape of a curved horn and having a solid matte base, a self contained power source and control buttons thereon. The disclosure also includes a flexible neck lamp connected to the hand rest via a cord for power and for control. The disclosure further includes an ergonomic heating pad attached to the hand rest and configured to draw power therefrom.

The invention is a protective nail cover for use after nail polish application. The nail cover is one piece flexible rubber that has a “squeeze to open” mechanism. It is made of a flexible but firm rubber material that can be applied over each fingertip, extending to the first joint to cover the nail without touching the nail. It will have holes for ventilation around the bulb portion. This bubble nail cover can be squeezed gently at the sides to open. The cover will gently close over the finger and may be lined with some sponge like material to make it more comfortable. The whole purpose of this cover is to protect freshly applied nail polish and allow it to dry.
