A hair-styling device may include a pair of articulated jaws having respective heating plates. At least one cartridge configured to contain a liquid may be included in one of or both of the jaws. The cartridge includes an ultrasonic transducer with micro-perforations configured to transform the liquid into a dispersion of droplets, and an outlet configured to deliver the dispersion of droplets, through a delivery cavity situated in at least one of the heating plates, to discharge ports distributed over a surface of the heating plate.

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for preventing over heating by a hair drying and styling tool. The tool is equipped with a mist generator and heat sensing system. The heat sensing system based on radiometry includes a radiometric thermal sensor that senses the infrared radiations reflected from the hair being heated and communicates the level of the infrared radiations to a controlling means. When the level of the infrared radiations exceeds a predetermined level, the controlling means, further, controls the output of the hair drying tool and the mist generator. The controlling means can lower the output temperature of the hair styling tool or activates the mist generator to spray an ultra fine stream of cool water mist on hair. Thus, the temperature and moisture levels of hair are maintained, and hence, preventing damages caused by overheating to the hair and scalp.

Embodiments of the present invention provides a hair drying and styling apparatus that comprises a hair styling tool in combination with an ultrasonic mist generator. The ultrasonic mist generator includes a water tank, an ultrasonic transducer to produce water mist, a wick tube to supply water from the water tank to the transducer, and a spray manifold including a plurality of holes to spray water mist over the heated portions of the hair styling tool and the heated hair. Further, the mist generator also includes a provision to add a customized personal fragrance or cologne to the hair. Furthermore, the mist generator also includes an ion generator to provide negatively ionized water for static control and improving hair gloss and conditioning. Advantageously, the apparatus prevents the hair from over drying, and providing heat damage to hair, scalp or hands of a user/stylist by spraying cool mist during operation.

A hair-styling appliance includes a first and second arm pivotably mounted between a spaced-apart and a closed configuration; a reservoir mounted on the first arm and intended for containing a fluid to be vaporised; a vaporisation device mounted on the first arm and configured for generating vapour; a fluid-conveying element attached to the reservoir and configured for conveying fluid contained in the reservoir to the vaporisation device. The reservoir is movably mounted between a vaporisation position in which the vaporisation device is configured for vaporising the fluid conveyed by the fluid conveying element and an inoperative position. The hair-styling appliance includes an actuating element mounted on the second arm and configured for moving the reservoir from the inoperative position to the vaporisation position when the first and second arms are moved from the spaced-apart configuration to the closed configuration.

The present invention relates to a device (1) for treating the hair, comprising: a structure for accommodating a refill (10) of hair treatment product, a steam generator for outputting steam onto the hair at a rate of less than 10 g/min, a refill detection element that detects said refill when it is mounted on the accommodating structure, the device (1) being designed to pass into a refill-free mode if no refill (10) is detected by the detection element, the operation of the steam generator in this refill-free mode being different than its normal operation when a refill is present.

The invention relates to a cosmetic product refill (20) for a hair treatment device (1), comprising an applicator member that is saturated with liquid cosmetic product, with a degree of filling less than or equal to 90%, preferably less than or equal to 80%>, more preferably less than or equal to 70%, the degree of filling being defined as the ratio of the mass of cosmetic product in the applicator member divided by the maximum mass of cosmetic product with which the applicator member can be saturated.

A hair dryer, including: a housing provided with an air intake and an air outlet, and having an air passage communicating the air intake with the air outlet; a fan installed in the air passage for discharging air from the air intake to the air outlet; and a water particle generator installed in the housing for providing water particles in a direction towards the air outlet; where an installing cavity for installing the water particle generator is provided in the housing, the installing cavity has a cold air passage connected to the air intake and a particle outlet for releasing the water particles, and when in operation of the hair dryer, cold air flowing through the cold air passage that carries the water particles generated by the water particle generator is blown out of the particle outlet.

The present invention relates to a cosmetic refill (20) intended to be inserted in a removable manner into a housing in a system (2) for treating the hair, comprising: a hair product reservoir comprising an opening, a porous application member (26) extending partially into the reservoir through the opening, the application member (26) being fixed in the reservoir when the refill (20) is used.

Provided is a hairdressing appliance comprising a portable treatment unit equipped with two arms configured to form a clamp provided with two surfaces positioned opposite each other that enable the simultaneous clamping of a lock of hair. The portable treatment unit comprises steam spraying means that is configured to disperse the steam from the first of two surfaces towards the second of the two surfaces. The appliance comprises a means for containing the steam dispersed between the two surfaces that are pressed together. Thus provided is a hairdressing appliance whose performance is comparable to that of hairdressing appliances with high flows of steam, yet while using a reduced flow of steam.

A hair styling appliance includes a base including a mount and a removable reservoir configured to take up a disconnected position in which the reservoir is away from the mount and an operating position in which the reservoir engages fluidically with the mount, a portable unit remote from the base; a line that fluidically connects the base and the portable unit; wherein the base also includes a detection system having a detector configured to detect the passage of the reservoir from the disconnected position to the operating position.
