The invention relates to a cosmetic process for treating keratin fibers, preferably the hair, comprising at least the steps consisting in: a) applying to said keratin fibers a composition containing at least one substance chosen from fatty substances, non-silicone polymers and surfactants, b) applying a mechanical tension to said keratin fibers, and c) exposing said keratin fibers under mechanical tension to microwaves, at a pressure ranging from 50,000 to 250,000 Pa, in the presence of at least one solvent in vapor form on contact with the keratin fibers and without there being complete drying of the keratin fibers throughout the entire exposure to the microwaves, the solvent(s) in vapor form being entirely generated by evaporating at least one compound present, before emission of the microwaves, on contact with the keratin fibers, step a) taking place prior to step c).

The invention relates to a cosmetic refill (20) intended to be inserted in a removable manner into a housing (22) in a device (2) for treating the hair and to the associated treatment device (2). The cosmetic refill (20) comprises a body (23) that has a first wall (40) and a second wall (38) opposite the first wall (40), and at least one coupling relief (50, 52) that extends from each of the first wall (40) and the second wall (38). The coupling relief (50) on the first wall (40) is intended to cooperate with a first surface (46) of the housing (22) when the first wall (40) is introduced into the housing (22). The coupling relief (52) on the second wall (38) is intended to cooperate with a second surface (44) of the housing (22) when the refill (20) is brought into a use position by pivoting in the housing (22) about a pivot axis (B).

The invention relates to a refill (20) for a device for treating the hair, comprising a body (23) having a cavity (30) that is formed at least partially by two opposite walls (34, 36; 38, 40) and a bottom and opens towards the outside by way of an opening (31), and an applicator member that is inserted into the cavity (30) in the body (23) along an insertion axis and extends out of the cavity (30) through the opening (31). At least one of the walls (34, 36; 38, 40) and the bottom comprises at least one coupling relief (32) that engages with the applicator member in order to prevent it from being extracted from the cavity (30), this coupling relief (32) being designed such that the force for inserting the applicator member into the cavity is weaker than the extraction force.

A double heat resistant comb flat Iron, with built in combs attached to the Iron clamp/body is disclosed. My invention improves on these difficulties because mastering the ability to use two hands and hair tools isn't necessary. Also, using my invention makes straightening hair convenient and gives better results.

A device for displaying and packaging hairdressing instruments, including a plurality of blow-dry rollers, at least one removable gripping handle to which one of the blow-dry rollers can be attached, and a storage housing. The storage housing includes a receiving compartment dimensioned to receive and contain the plurality of blow-dry rollers, a peripheral wall of the receiving compartment, a bottom wall of the receiving compartment, and a retractable top cover. Stabilizing devices are shaped to each hold one of the blow-dry rollers oriented along a respective substantially vertical axis and separated from the other rollers. An intermediate space contains an ultraviolet radiation source for directing and distributing ultraviolet radiation into the receiving compartment. Magnets are distributed on the inner face of the cover for retaining metal tools. An electrical safety switch actuated by the cover inhibits the supply of power to the ultraviolet radiation source when the cover is not in the closed position.
