Abstract:
A device for treating at least one lock of hair, comprising: —at least one device (20) for applying mechanical stress to the hair, having a reception surface intended to receive the lock of hair, this surface being greater in width L in a direction perpendicular to said lock, —a microwave-proof chamber which is configured so as to receive the mechanical-stress-application device (20) and at least one part of the hair to be treated, —a microwave emission antenna (30) placed inside the chamber, this antenna extending axially over a distance D at least equal to L/2.
Abstract:
The appliance for treating the hair, having two arms to be closed over the hair to be treated, at least one of the arms carrying a refill of hair treatment product, the appliance having an electronic control circuit with an electronic memory, this circuit being designed to detect the closure of the arms and the fitting of the refill, the appliance having a steam generator for outputting steam onto the hair and at least one heated straightening plate, the appliance being designed to increment a variable in the memory during the use of the appliance after the refill has been changed and to pass into a downgraded mode of operation in which the operation of the steam generator and/or of the straightening plate is modified when the variable exceeds a first predefined threshold.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for treating, especially styling, hair, comprising: a receptacle (25) containing a product to be applied, said product being contained in the receptacle in a fluid state; two jaws (3, 4) that are movable in relation to each other and can adopt a spread configuration for the insertion of a lock of hair therebetween and a closed configuration for treating the lock of hair, said jaws (3, 4) being movable along the lock of hair in said closed configuration; an application body (23) for applying the cosmetic product, carried by one of said jaws and suitable for coming into contact with the hair in the closed position; and a steam outlet (21) on the other one of said jaws, for exposing the hair engaged in the device to the steam.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cosmetic process for treating keratin fibers, preferably the hair, comprising at least the steps consisting in: a) applying to said keratin fibers a composition containing at least one substance chosen from fatty substances, non-silicone polymers and surfactants, b) applying a mechanical tension to said keratin fibers, and c) exposing said keratin fibers under mechanical tension to microwaves, at a pressure ranging from 50 000 to 250 000 Pa, in the presence of at least one solvent in vapor form on contact with the keratin fibers and without there being complete drying of the keratin fibers throughout the entire exposure to the microwaves, the solvent(s) in vapor form being entirely generated by evaporating at least one compound present, before emission of the microwaves, on contact with the keratin fibers, step a) taking place prior to step c).
