Hair dye composition and method of dyeing hair that targets only at least one grey part using a permanent hair dye component comprising a specific volume percentage of a particulate pigment to permanent hair dye component. The purpose of some embodiments of the invention is to delay the need for women to dye their hair in full. At least one pigment particle (about 0.0770 ml or about 1/64th of a teaspoon) may be added to a bottle of 71 ml of permanent hair dye, which allows the permanent hair dye composition to become visible and allows for more accuracy during application. Using small quantities of 5 cc per application (hair dye: 2.5 ml; developer: 2.5 ml) reduces the amount of dye applied to needless areas of the hair. The use of a make-up sponge stick allows for better accuracy. The composition is multi-use, and provides for 28 applications (71 ml bottle of dye and 71 ml of developer), and will save users time and money. All these characteristics provide for a hair dye composition that significantly reduces the amount of harmful chemicals applied to users' hair.

A disposable article infused with an insect repellant and method of making the same. The disposable article includes an outer, water absorbent layer, an inner, waterproof layer and an insect repellant applied to the outer layer. The disposable article can be fabric gowns, shoe-covers, leg coverings, hand coverings, arm coverings, head coverings, body coverings, face coverings, full body coverings and chuck pads. In certain embodiments, the outer, water absorbent layer is spun-bonded polypropylene. In other embodiments, the outer, water absorbent layer is spun-bonded polyester. The inner, waterproof layer can be cast polyethylene. The insect repellant can include an effective amount of DEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide), OLE (oil of lemon eucalyptus) and essential oils alone or in combination.

Methods and processes are described that enable the manufacture of a superior thin-walled mold from which higher-quality, less-costly disposable gloves can be more efficiently produced. The method can include creating a glove form in a sacrificial material; electroforming an electroformed master from the glove form; removing sacrificial material from the electroformed master; creating a tertiary form from the electroformed master; forming an initial copper layering on the tertiary form; and developing the initial copper layering into a thick copper plating to create a copper mold for gloves.

Apparatus and methods are disclosed for preventing and protecting a user from disease and virus transmission that might otherwise occur from contacting or touching potentially contaminated surfaces. A finger protector provides a barrier between a user's finger and a potentially contaminated surface when a user makes contact with or touches the surface. Indicia on the protector provide visual and/or physical indicators to enable a user to track the potentially contaminated and non-contaminated surfaces of the finger protector, before, during, and after use. This enables a user to safely grab the non-contaminated portion of the protector for removal from their finger after use, thereby further helping reduce the risk of contamination and potential disease and virus transmission. The disclosed methods and apparatus include for use, fabrication, packaging, and distribution of the protectors.

The present disclosure provides a gown comprising a non-woven fabric having a front portion, a rear portion, a lower edge, and a head insertion aperture defined between the front portion and the rear portion; an opening, the opening defined in the rear portion, said opening formed at the lower edge and extending towards the head insertion aperture, configured to assist a wearer in donning the gown; and a bridge extending across the rear portion between the opening and head insertion aperture; the bridge serving to tear and split the rear portion when the front portion is pulled away by the wearer. The bridge is free from any aids to tearing and the bridge and the opening form the sole mechanisms for tearing the gown. A method of wearing and removing a gown is also provided. The method includes the steps of accessing the gown as described above; passing a head through the head insertion aperture to don the gown; and pulling the front portion, thereby tearing and splitting the between the head insertion aperture and the opening, to remove the gown. A method of making a gown is also provided.

Illustrative views of an exemplary body protective cover device for protecting people while hugging from transfer of an infectious disease is presented. The body protective cover device is useful for preventing transfer of an infectious disease such as COVID-19. Also, the body protective cover device is cost effective, easy to use and disposable.

A disposable medical gown (100) includes a body covering portion (101) and optionally one or more sleeves (107,108). The body covering portion (101) defines a head insertion aperture (104) between a frontal body covering portion (103) configured to cover a frontal body portion of a wearer and a rear portion (203) configured to cover at least parts of shoulder blades of the wearer. A torso opening (201) is disposed on a side of the rear portion (203) opposite the head insertion aperture (104), and extends distally from the rear portion (203). One or more perforations (202) extend across the rear portion (203) at least partially between the torso opening (202) and the head insertion aperture (104), and facilitate easy removal of the gown (100). A user removes the gown (100) by pulling the front portion (103), thereby tearing the perforations. Elastic gatherings can be included to snug the gown about the torso or limbs of the user.

An integrated cooling and hydration vest, incorporating a vest like structure made from liquid impervious material, the vest having at least one chamber formed therein, the chamber being structured into an upper section and a bottom section, a divider provided between the upper and bottom sections, at least one aperture provided through the divider to allow frozen material deposited within the upper section as it melts to gravitate into the bottom section during usage, and a syphoning device operative being associated with said chamber to allow the user to extract the melted liquid from the bottom section for consumption during usage.
