A wishbone shaped highlighting applicator includes a top portion having two prongs extending upward and outward from a base and a plurality of fibers protruding outward from a front side of the top portion. The highlighting applicator also includes a bottom portion having a curved handle with a textured grip. In one embodiment, the fibers are configured to receive bleach or hair dye and transfer the bleach or hair dye when the highlight applicator is passed along a section of hair.

A flexible egg conforming container receives an egg therein and provides channels around the egg to marinate the egg with reduced marinade. The channels are supported away from the egg by inwardly extending bosses arrayed to impart a decorative pattern to the egg after marination.

Brush (10) for application of a cosmetic product, particularly a hair coloring and/or care product, comprising: a handle (12)a product applicator (14) projecting from the handle (12), the applicator (14) comprising crimped fibers (40). The crimped fibers (40) are between 0.25 mm and 0.45 mm thick and the crimp wave length is between 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm.

The present invention relates to a method for dyeing keratin materials, in particular human hair, comprising: applying a composition (A) to the keratin material, the composition (A) containing one or more organic C.sub.1-C.sub.6 alkoxy silanes (A1) and/or the condensation products thereof, and applying a composition (B) to the keratin material, the composition (B) containing one or more dyeing compounds (B1) from the group of the pigments and/or the direct dyes, and a heat treatment of the keratin material.

In an embodiment, the present invention is a treatment sheet for separating portions of hair during a color processing treatment. In the embodiment, the treatment sheet is clear and transparent.

Laser-drilling apparatus includes a gas-discharge for laser emitting laser-radiation pulses, and two acousto-optic modulators (AOMs). The laser radiation pulses are characterized as having two temporal central portions between temporal leading and trailing edge portions. The AOMs are arranged to spatially separate the central temporal portions of the pulses from each other and from the leading and trailing edge portions of the pulses.

A melting brush for applying hair color, including a handle having a first end and a second end, a brush paddle having a first end, a second end and a first side located between the first end and the second end such that the first end of the brush paddle is operatively connected to the second end of the handle, a first hair color application surface operatively connected to the first side of the brush paddle, and a second hair color application surface operatively connected to the second end of the brush paddle.

A bowl is disclosed having a basin portion having a slanted back wall portion, a bottom portion, a front straight wall portion, a pair of side wall portions, and a top portion, and a handle extending from the top portion.

Systems and methods for computing a hair-coloring composition (HCC) or for dispensing ingredients for the HCC are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the system comprises a hair-treatment objective-prioritization user interface (HTOP UI) for receiving multi-objective relative-importance data describing a relative importance of different hair-treatment objectives (e.g. immediate post-treatment accuracy versus auxiliary goals, or one auxiliary goal versus another) for a potential hair-coloring treatment. In some embodiments, a hair-coloring-composition (HCC) prediction-engine is responsive to input received via the HTOP UI to compute, from the initial hair-state data and from the target color-state, a customized hair-coloring composition predicted to transform a color state of the user's hair from the initial color state to the target color state. This may be performed according to the multi-objective relative-importance data.

A cosmetic brush that includes a plurality of polymer bristles that extend from a polymer core in a radial direction, wherein at least a portion of the core is twisted and bristles in the twisted portion are arranged in one or more columns disposed in one or more spiral paths that extend along at least a portion of the longitudinal axis of the core is presented.
