The handheld motorized hair styling device is a battery-operated, motorized, hair styling tool that produces a styled pattern of curls, twists, and/or coils in hair. The handheld motorized hair styling device creates the styled pattern by moving a contoured styling pad against the hair in a roto-linear motion. The speed and direction of the roto-linear motion may be changed using controls on the handheld motorized hair styling device. The styling pad may be removed and replaced and the battery is rechargeable.

A hair styling apparatus with a plurality of modes for styling hair in a variety of fashions. The hair styling apparatus as at least two elongate components pivotally movable about a joint between an extended and closed position. Each elongate component having a styling part and a handle. The apparatus further has a clamp movably couplable to either elongate component, a temperature control means, and a power means. The hair styling apparatus is thereby portable and multifunctional.

A liquid recycling kit for hair treatment is provided. The liquid recycling kit includes a liquid guiding device to be worn on one head and a liquid collecting device detachably coupled to the liquid guiding device. The liquid guiding device includes an inner wall and an outer wall collectively defining a guiding channel. The liquid guiding device receives a hair treatment liquid dripping from the head and guides the received hair treatment liquid to at least one rear outlet of the liquid guiding device by gravity along the guiding channel. The liquid collecting device includes a container wall defining a collecting space located under the rear outlet of the liquid guiding device. The collecting space receives the guided hair treatment liquid flowing out from the rear outlet of the liquid guiding device for recycling the hair treatment liquid.

One embodiment of a hair tool 100 to elongate and define natural hair coils 110, where the hair tool 100 comprises top coiling members 120 and bottom coiling members 121, a connector 140, and a securing member 150, 151, wherein a coil of hair 110 placed and secured between the top coiling members 120 and the bottom coiling members 121 can be elongated and/or defined 600. Other embodiments are described and shown 710, 720, 730, 740, and 800.

A hair braiding kit. The hair braiding kit includes a base mat and at least a first hair attachment. The base mat includes an upper surface, a lower surface and an outer edge. The first hair attachment includes a first support protruding from the upper surface of the base mat. The first hair attachment further includes a plurality of strands each having a first end, a second end and a unique identifier. The first end of each of the strands is attached to the first support.

A method for hair straightening comprising the steps of heating a hair plate (20) at a working temperature (T), applying to the hair a gas flow that changes the gas environment around the hair, and simultaneously passing the plate (20) slowly over one lock at a time carrying out a plurality of passages. In particular, the gas environment around the hair is composed of air wherein the chemical components have been varied (for example, it is hydrogen enriched), or the oxygen percentage has been varied, or a gas compound normally not present has been added. The relative straightening device comprises a gas flow generator (10) connected, through a conduit (14), to a dispensing plate (20) heated by heating means (21); the generator (10) comprises a hydrogen generator (11) connected to dispensing means (24) provided on the dispensing plate (20) at the heating means (41).

A device for measuring hair properties has a first part (I) and a second part (II) between which hair (H) is guided. The first part (I) comprises a measuring probe (MP), and the second part (II) is arranged for deforming the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP). While the device moves along the hair (H), the measuring probe (MP) experiences both a friction force resulting from the hair (H) being guided along the measuring probe (MP), and a deformation force (DF) resulting from the hair (H) being deformed by the second part (II) against the measuring probe (MP). Advantageously, the second part (II) comprises a pressure element (PB, S) for pressing the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP), to squeeze the hair (H). In alternative embodiments, the second part (II) comprises alignment elements (AE) at opposite sides of the measuring probe (MP) for bending the hair (H) against the measuring probe (MP), and guidance elements (G) for mitigating an influence of an angle at which the device is applied to the hair (H) to the friction force and/or the deformation force, while the measuring probe (MP) is mounted to a load cell module (LC-X, LC-Y) for measuring a load in two dimensions to measure friction force and deformation force, respectively.

A hair braiding kit. The hair braiding kit includes a base mat and at least a first hair attachment. The base mat includes an upper surface, a lower surface and an outer edge. The first hair attachment includes a first support protruding from the upper surface of the base mat. The first hair attachment further includes a plurality of strands each having a first end, a second end and a unique identifier. The first end of each of the strands is attached to the first support.

The present invention relates to a method for dyeing hair fibres, in particular a method which involves coating hair fibres with a hair dye composition and directing radio frequency electromagnetic radiation to the coated hair fibres to cause heating within the coated hair fibres by dielectric loss. The present invention also relates to kits and appliances for use in connection with the method, as well as the use of radio frequency electromagnetic radiation in reducing the effective dye-treatment time for hair fibres. In one aspect, there is provided a method of dyeing hair fibres, said method comprising the steps of: i) coating one or more hair fibres with a hair dye composition; and ii) directing radio frequency electromagnetic radiation having one or more frequencies from 1 MHz to 300 MHz to the one or more coated hair fibres to cause heating within the one or more coated hair fibres by dielectric loss. Preferably, the hair dye composition used in step i) is a permanent or demi-permanent hair dye composition that may be prepared by combining a dye lotion containing one or more dye precursors and an activator solution containing an activating agent, wherein the activating agent in the activator solution converts the one or more dye precursors in the dye lotion to active dye agents.

A braid training tool includes a head component having multiple strands selected from human hair, synthetic hair, and/or yarn extending from a surface and partitioned into sectors. A method of strengthening dexterity with the tool includes separating the multiple strands in at least one of the sectors into a predetermined number of sections; interweaving the sections according to a predetermined pattern to form a braid having a selected length; and securing the braid.
