A hair styling appliance includes first and second heating plates operatively connected for pivotal displacement relative to one another such that a hair segment positioned between them can be styled. A glide-speed sensing system generates an output having a relation to a speed with which the hair segment is displaced relative to the first and second heating plates. A glide-speed indicating system can communicate feedback to a user, based on the output, such as an indication of a glide speed of the hair styling appliance relative to the associated hair segment. A user input device can receive an input from the user regarding a hair-type classification and/or a hair-condition classification and generate a hair-related output having a relation to the input from the user. A processor communicatively coupled with the user input device can be programmed to determine a predetermined maximum treatment temperature and/or a predetermined glide speed range, based at least partially on the hair-related output from the user input device.

A hair styling device (1) comprises a hair styling component (11, 13), a heating mechanism (20) configured to heat the hair styling component (11, 13), a component temperature sensor (21) configured to detect a temperature of the hair styling component (11, 13), a hair temperature sensor (22) configured to detect a temperature of hair faced by the hair styling component (11, 13) during operation of the hair styling device (1), and a controller (23) configured to receive input from at least both temperature sensors (21, 22), and to process the inputs to control operation of the heating mechanism (20) and obtain a temperature setting of the hair styling component (11, 13) in view of a moisture content of the hair estimated from at least the hair temperature.

The present invention relates to a photoreactive hair treatment apparatus which enables the styling of a desired shape, the prevention of damages to hair and the treatment of hair to be glossy and resilient, and can reduce a treatment time of an agent used for treating hair. The photoreactive hair treatment apparatus comprises: a light source for emitting light; and a power supply unit for supplying power to the light source, wherein the light source is arranged to emit the light toward hair onto which a hair treating agent is applied. As such, the present invention has the effect of enhancing hair treatment efficiency by reducing the acting time in which the hair treating agent has effects on the hair.
