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.

DEPILATING DEVICE

A depilating device (1) comprises a depilating body (10) which is rotatable about a rotation axis (R) extending in a longitudinal direction (L) with respect to the depilating body (10) and which is provided with at least one hair-catching space (11). The depilating device (1) further comprises an actuating mechanism (30) configured to act on the depilating body (10) so as to cause compression and extension of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L) during rotational movement of the depilating body (10) about the rotation axis (R), for the purpose of varying the size of the hair-catching space (11) of the depilating body (10) in the longitudinal direction (L), wherein the actuating mechanism (30) includes a force-inducing member (31) which is compressible and extensible in the longitudinal direction (L) and which has a function in determining the level of a hair-clamping force in the depilating body (10).

CUTTING COMB
20220408896 · 2022-12-29 ·

The present invention refers to a cutting comb (100) for cutting split ends of hair, comprising: a first comb body (1) with at least two first teeth (10), a second comb body (2) with at least two second teeth (20), and cutting means (3) for cutting split ends of hair. The first comb body (1) and the second comb body (2) are arranged to be movable relative to each other in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis (200) of the cutting comb (100). Furthermore, at least one first tooth (10) of the first comb body (1) comprises at least one first hair-dividing element (11) for dividing hair into hair strands, the at least one first hair-dividing element (11) being immovably fixed to the at least one first tooth (10) and/or the at least one second tooth (20) of the second comb body (2) comprises at least one second hair-dividing element (21) for dividing hair into hair strands, the at least one second hair-dividing element (21) immovably being fixed to the at least second tooth (20).

Handheld tweezers having detachable tips interchangeable to optimally perform a variety of functions, personal and commercial. Examples of interchangeable tips may include flat slant tips, rounded tips, and point tip tweezers.

Camera Enabled Tweezer System and Apparatus
20220395068 · 2022-12-15 ·

A portable tweezing device that provides an improved tweezing experience by providing a light source, and a camera for live viewing of the area being tweezed. The tweezer transmits live video from the camera to the user's phone or other wireless device thus removing the need for a mirror and external lighting to view the hair or other object being tweezed.

HAIR CUTTING DEVICE AND HAIR CUTTING SYSTEM
20220387104 · 2022-12-08 ·

A hair cutting device according to the present disclosure comprises an optical waveguide. The optical waveguide comprises a light irradiator. The light irradiator irradiates hair protruding from the skin with light to cut the hair. The refractive index of the light irradiator is smaller than the refractive index of the surface of the skin. As a result, options such as the material of the optical waveguide and the like can be increased. Furthermore, for example, when the skin is appropriately irradiated with light from the light irradiator, an action on the skin such as sterilization or activation can also be expected.

A hair cutting device according to the present disclosure comprises an optical waveguide. The optical waveguide comprises a light irradiator for irradiating hair protruding from a skin with light to cut the hair. At least at a time of cutting the hair, a power density of light passing through the optical waveguide is more than or equal to 50 kW/cm.sup.2. This makes it easy to efficiently cut hair with light with which the light irradiator irradiates the hair. That is, it is possible to apply sufficient light energy for cutting the hair from the optical waveguide to the hair, and it is possible to cut the hair in a relatively short time. Therefore, for example, a width increases such as a thickness or hardness of hair that can be cut.
