A nail polish application apparatus, comprising a mounting element comprising a capsule compartment adapted to receive one or more capsules containing a nail polish fluid wherein the mounting element is moveable by actuator(s) in longitudinal axis crossing a nail polish applying space and in lateral axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and is rotatable by the actuator(s) around the longitudinal axis, a pressure applying element adapted to apply pressure on a body portion of the capsule(s) installed in the capsule compartment wherein the body portion defines a reservoir containing a nail polish fluid, the pressure builds an internal pressure in the reservoir forcing extrusion of the nail polish fluid to a nail polish applying element integrated with the capsule(s), sensor(s) adapted to generate sensory data depicting the nail polish applying space and a control unit adapted to operate the actuator(s) and the pressure according to analysis of the sensory data.

A combination manicure and pedicure station for performing manicures and pedicures. The combination manicure and pedicure station includes a housing having a top surface, a sidewall forming an enclosed interior volume, and a base. The housing includes at least one drawer slidably mounted within the sidewall thereof. The housing further includes a pedestal mounted to an angled support member, wherein the angled support member is affixed to the top surface. The pedestal includes both a recessed portion that receives a foot and a recessed channel that receives a container therein. The housing further includes a telescopically adjustable stand that is slidably affixed to the sidewall, wherein the stand includes a panel that is hingedly affixed thereto. The panel further includes a cushion member and a recessed channel thereon. Both the top surface of the housing and the panel each include an adjustable light for illuminating an extremity of a user.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a miniature, multiple-angle accessible nail gel curing lamp that minimizes the size of a light exposure area, while at the same time providing access to the light exposure area for a customer's hand, and both of technician's hands. This lamp is particularly useful for performing the “gel-press on” technique of applying artificial nails with a UV-curable nail gel. Some embodiments include a base, a riser extending generally upward from the base, and a lamp head extending generally horizontally from the riser, where the lamp head is operatively connectable to a power source and comprises an ultraviolet light emitting diode (“UV LED”) configured to direct light emitted by the UV LED generally toward the base, thereby defining a light exposure area extending from the UV LED downward toward the base, and where an arc of access to the light exposure area is defined as an arc in a plane generally parallel to the UV LED and centered on the UV LED, so that the base, the riser and the lamp head are configured to allow unimpeded access of a user's hand to the light exposure area throughout the arc of access and where the arc of access is at least 180 degrees, and in some instances, at least 270 degrees.

Disclosed is a printing device including: a finger stage on which a finger corresponding to a nail is placed, the nail being a printing target; a carriage which has at least one reflector; and a camera which obtains at least an image of the nail of the finger placed on the finger stage from an upper direction and an image of the nail of the finger reflected in the reflector.

A pedicure foot stand has a housing with a first portion and a second portion defining an interior cavity. The second portion can be coupled in multiple configurations relative to the first portion, or can be decoupled from the first portion, to provide different angles at which a user's foot is supported on the second portion during a pedicure treatment.

Systems and methods to initiate and perform the painting of an area of interest on a finger are herein disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, of capturing an image of the finger in response to receiving a request to paint the area of interest on the finger and using the image of the finger to ascertain an area of interest of the fingernail to be painted. One embodiment includes, in response to determining that the user is satisfied with the area of interest that has been determined, initiating the painting of the area of interest and/or depicting, in real time, the painting of the area of interest to the user.

The present invention relates to a device for the painting of nails, during the work of nail painting it is sought that paint covers homogeneously the surface of the nails. Often when performing such work, the professional manicurist must be very careful that the paint brush does not stain the skin around the nail as the work must reflect an aesthetic quality. The nail manicuring device is characterized in that it comprises:

a first left outer piece (1); a second right outer piece (2); a third outer piece (3); a watch strap spring bolt (4); a pair of springs, wherein said pair of springs comprises a first spring (5) and a second spring (6), wherein the first left outer piece (1) is joined to the second right outer piece (2) and both are joined to the third outer piece (3) by means of the watch strap bolt (4), the springs (5) (6) attach to the third outer piece (3) allowing the pieces (1) (2) to function as a clamp which pulls the nail paronychium to perform the manicure work.

An apparatus for applying a decal to a nail of a human includes a housing having a cartridge recess, a cartridge that includes a supply spool around which a tape is at least partially wound, the tape having at least one decal that is transferrable to a nail of a human digit, and a take-up spool that includes a tape grip that holds an end of the tape, wherein the cartridge is removably mountable in the cartridge recess, an actuator coupled to the housing and moveable between an unactuated position and an actuated position, a tape advancement arrangement and a decal actuation surface are provided. The tape advancement arrangement coupled to the actuator and arranged to rotate the take-up spool to extend the tape from the supply spool during movement of the actuator between the unactuated position and the actuated position.
