A hairstyling apparatus is described which includes a barrel that acts as a hairstyling surface and a central longitudinal axis. The barrel has a first proximal end and a second distal end. A heating element is in thermal communication with the barrel. A rotating member located at the proximal end of the barrel and configured to rotate around the central axis of the barrel, the rotating member including at least one tab extending along a longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface over at least a portion of a longitudinally extending portion of the hairstyling surface. Further, at least one hairstyling element received in said at least one tab.

A method for treating the hair with the aid of a treatment device, notably a heat treatment device, in particular a straightening device, in which a lock of hair is exposed, while the device is being moved along the latter, in a single operation to: apply cosmetic composition with the aid of an application member of the device, and then to apply steam with the aid of a steam outlet of the device that is offset relative to the application member in the direction of movement of the lock of hair by a nonzero distance v, measured between the median plane of the steam outlet and the median plane of the application member, of less than or equal to 10 mm.

A handheld appliance having a body and an attachment, the body includes an attachment mechanism having a slot and an actuator, the attachment including a protrusion adapted to engage with the slot wherein the actuator has a first position and a second position and the actuator is moved from the first position towards the second position as the protrusion engages with the slot. In the first position the actuator may at least partially obscures the slot. The actuator includes a surface which may interact with the protrusion when the protrusion engages with the slot. The surface may be adapted to at least partially define the slot at or near the second position. When the protrusion is at a pre-determined position within the slot, the actuator may return towards the first position. The actuator may be biased into the first position.

A hair drying and twisting assembly includes an air gun that has a handle portion and a barrel portion. A cylinder is removably attachable to the barrel portion and the cylinder is foraminous to pass air therethrough. A blower is positioned within the barrel portion to blow air outwardly through the barrel portion when the blower is turned on. A heating element is positioned within the barrel portion to heat the air is blown by the blower when the heating element is turned on. A plurality of motors is positioned in the barrel portion and a plurality of coiled members is positioned within the barrel portion. Each of the coiled members engages a respective one of the motors to twist the user's hair into a coil when the motors are turned on.

The present application discloses a hair curling method and a hair curler. The hair curling method includes: obtaining an operation instruction; executing the operation instruction to curl hair, where the operation instruction is used to control the hair curling member to rotate in a designated direction; determining whether the hair is tangled or not in a process of executing the operation instruction; controlling the hair curling member to stop when the hair is tangled, and controlling the hair curling member to rotate in a direction opposite to the designated direction. A hair curling method and a hair curler are provided according to the present application, when the hair is tangled in a process of using the automatic hair curling iron to curl hair, the hair curling member is timely controlled to stop and rotate reversely.

A hair-styling tool may include one or more pods that store liquid. For example, the hair-styling tool may include a removable, reusable water pod and/or a removable oil-formulation pod, which may correspond to a hair type of an individual. Moreover, during operation, the hair-styling tool may output or provide one or more discharges, such as: a steam discharge, an oil-formulation discharge, and/or a steam-and-oil-formulation discharge. The discharge flow may be selectable or dynamically adjusted based at least in part on the hair type of the individual, a predefined preference of the individual, and/or a predefined preference of a hair stylist. Moreover, the one or more discharges may be output of or provided from a head in the hair-styling tool. This head may include multiple prongs or tines that are used, in conjunction with the one or more discharges, to detangle or style an individual's hair.

The present invention provides a water-pumping device and a hairdressing device. The water-pumping device is connected to a liquid storage device to deliver liquid in the liquid storage device, and includes a chamber for containing the liquid and a squeezing device. Two ends of the chamber are communicated with a first water delivery channel and a second water delivery channel respectively, the first water delivery channel is connected to the liquid storage device, and a wall surface of the chamber is at least partially made of a deformable material, and the squeezing device periodically squeezes the deformable material from one end of the chamber to the other end thereof to make the first water delivery channel pump water and the second water delivery channel deliver water. No hose is provided in the chamber so that the number of components is reduced and the overall structure is simplified.
