(3) FIG. 3 shows a contemplated method for utilizing a removable hair coloring composition or compound.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(4) The reason these contemplated embodiments and products were created was that they could be applied once, not be affected by sweat or water, and not come out off until you take it off with a remover that is gentle to the hair and scalp. This task of annoying maintenance with available products is akin to the annoyance of having to frequently reapply lipstick. Originally, contemplated embodiments were considered primarily for the coverage of grey hair and/or undesirable natural hair that grew in between touch-ups or hair colorings, but contemplated embodiments can be utilized in a number of hair applications that will be disclosed herein.

(5) To this end, a new hair coloring composition has been developed that allows a consumer to color any hair on his or her body, including his or her head hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, etc. for a fixed period of time, while at the same time beneficially allowing the consumer to apply and remove the color in a safe and natural way.

(6) As used herein, the phrase “removable hair coloring composition” refers to the combination of at least one hair color composition or compound; and at least one sealing component or compound, and in some embodiments, the combination of at least one preparation stage component, at least one hair color composition or compound; and at least one sealing component or compound. The phrase “hair color composition” refers to one component of the hair coloring composition, wherein the hair color composition comprises the components that are designed to apply hair color or dye to at least one strand of hair.

(7) Specifically, removable hair coloring compositions are described herein and are shown in FIG. 1 that include: at least one hair color composition or compound 110; and at least one sealing component or compound 120, wherein at least one of the at least one hair color composition or compound, or the at least one sealing component or compound can be physically dissolved, physically removed, or a combination thereof when mixed with at least one natural oil. In some embodiments, removable hair coloring compositions further include at least one preparation stage component or compound 130.

(8) In some embodiments also shown in FIG. 1, the at least one hair color composition or compound 110, and the at least one sealing component or compound 120 are separate and independent components are combinable into one removable hair coloring composition 100. In other embodiments, the at least one hair color composition or compound 110, and the at least one sealing component or compound 120 are combined into the removable hair coloring composition 100 before application.

(9) In other embodiments also shown in FIG. 1, the at least one preparation stage component or compound 130, the at least one hair color composition or compound 110, and the at least one sealing component or compound 120 are separate and independent components that may be combinable into the removable hair coloring composition 100 or may be used independently of one another as part of application. In yet other embodiments, the at least one preparation stage component or compound, the at least one hair color composition or compound, and the at least one sealing component or compound are combined into the removable hair coloring composition before application.

(10) Methods 200 of utilizing a removable hair coloring compositions are described herein, shown in FIG. 2 and include: applying 210 at least one preparation stage component to at least part of at least one strand of hair; applying 220 at least one hair color composition to at least part of at least one strand of hair; and applying 230 at least one sealing component to the hair color composition on the at least part of at least one strand of hair, wherein at least one of the preparation stage component or compound, the hair color composition or compound, the sealing component or compound, or a combination thereof can be physically removed when mixed with a natural oil, shown in FIG. 1 as 140.

(11) In addition, methods 300 of utilizing a removable hair coloring composition are shown in FIG. 3 include: applying 310 at least one preparation stage component to at least part of at least one strand of hair; and applying 320 at least one hair color composition and at least one sealing component to at least part of at least one strand of hair, wherein at least one of the preparation stage component or compound, the hair color composition or compound, the sealing component or compound, or a combination thereof can be physically removed when mixed with a natural oil.

(12) In some embodiments, the at least one of the at least one preparation stage component or compound, the at least one hair color composition or compound, the at least one sealing component, or a combination thereof, is applied to the entirety at least one strand of hair, including grey hair.

(13) In other embodiments, the at least one preparation stage component, the at least one hair color composition and the at least one sealing component are combined together before applying to at least part of at least one strand of hair.

(14) As contemplated herein, the at least one preparation stage component comprises at least one constituent that is designed to prepare the hair for application of a color composition or product. In some contemplated embodiments, the at least one preparation stage component comprises a constituent designed to clean the hair of any dirt, residual or undesirable oil, previously applied hair product, or the like. In some contemplated embodiments, the at least one preparation stage component comprises a constituent that is designed to apply a layer or material to the hair to allow the hair to better receive, capture, or hold on to the at least one color composition. In yet other embodiments, these two sets of constituents may be included in the at least one preparation stage component and would be designed to work together to prepare the hair or portion of the hair for application of the at least one color composition or compound.

(15) Contemplated hair color compositions comprise materials and constituents that can be dissolved in and/or removed from hair by a natural oil, such as coconut oil, avocado oil, nut oil, or something similar. The hair color is designed to coat or cover strands or follicles of hair until the color coating is removed with the application of a natural oil or a product that contains a natural oil, such as a specially designed spray or shampoo. Contemplated color coatings or compositions may be designed to cover grey hair or lessen the effects of grey hair; may change the color of the hair entirely, such as from blond to brown or red; may enhance an already existing hair color, such as from light brown to dark brown; and/or may add an “on trend” color, such as green, purple, or blue to the existing hair.

(16) Specifically, a contemplated hair color composition comprises at least one color component 112 and at least one coating component 115. A contemplated coating component is one that can—alone or in combination with other coating components—reliably secure the at least one-color component to a hair follicle until a natural oil is applied. In some embodiments, however, a sealing component or composition would or could be applied to the hair as a second step to seal in the color component. In some embodiments, this contemplated sealing component or composition may be incorporated into the hair color composition.

(17) It should also be understood that the at least one color component isn't designed in contemplated compositions to permanently alter the color of the hair. Contemplated color components may permanently alter the color of the hair in other compositions—but in contemplated compositions, the at least one-color component is designed to be coated on the hair and removed by application of a natural oil. When the at least one-color component is removed, the hair looks as it did before application.

(18) While this subject matter was originally developed to cover grey hair and grey hair roots, contemplated hair color compositions are designed to be applied to all types of hair, including hair that grows from the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, and body hair. These compositions are also designed for all kinds of hair, including straight hair, curly hair, thin hair, thick hair—all of it.

(19) Methods of application and removal of contemplated hair color compositions are also included herein. In some embodiments, a contemplated application method includes applying a preparation stage component; applying a hair color composition; and applying a sealing component. In some embodiments, the preparation stage component may include a shampoo or co-wash (conditioner wash) component. In some contemplated embodiments, the applying of a hair color composition and the applying of a sealing component may be combined into one step.

(20) In some embodiments, a contemplated removal method includes applying a pre-removal stage component; applying a removal stage component; and applying a conditioning component. In some embodiments, the pre-removal stage component may include a shampoo or co-wash (conditioner wash) component that may include a natural oil, such as coconut oil, avocado oil, nut oil, or something similar. In some embodiments, the removal stage component comprises a natural oil, such as coconut oil, avocado oil, nut oil, or something similar. In some contemplated embodiments, the applying of a pre-removal composition and the applying of a removal stage component may be combined into one step.

(21) Thus, specific embodiments, methods of producing and using removable hair coloring compositions have been disclosed. It should be apparent, however, to those skilled in the art that many more modifications besides those already described are possible without departing from the inventive concepts herein. The inventive subject matter, therefore, is not to be restricted except in the spirit of the disclosure herein. Moreover, in interpreting the specification, all terms should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms “comprises” and “comprising” should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non-exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps may be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, components, or steps that are not expressly referenced.
