Abstract: A hair dryer as a hair care device includes heat application unit (30), component generation unit (40), part detection unit (64), and controller (80). Heat application unit (30) applies heat to a user's hair. Component generation unit (40) generates a component acting on hair. Part detection unit (64) detects at least a part of hair. Controller (80) estimates a part to which heat or the component is applied based on an output of part detection unit (64), and adjusts amount of heat set in heat application unit (30) or a component amount set in component generation unit (40) for each part.

Abstract: Controller (80) of a hair dryer as a hair care device includes hair characteristic recognition unit (81), table generation unit (82), and application amount calculation unit (83). Hair characteristic recognition unit (81) classifies a user's hair characteristics based on a hair measurement value or a hair image. Table generation unit (82) sets a component amount of a component generated by component generation unit (40) for each hair characteristic classified by hair characteristic recognition unit (81). Application amount calculation unit (83) adjusts the component amount for each user based on the hair characteristics of whole hair classified by hair characteristic recognition unit (81) and the component amount set by table generation unit (82). Alternatively, application amount calculation unit (83) calculates a component application amount given by component generation unit (40) or a heat application amount given by heat application unit (30) for each part based on the hair characteristics for each part of the hair classified by hair characteristic recognition unit (81) and the component amount set by table generation unit (82).

Abstract: Hair dryer (1) as a hair care device includes heat application unit (30) that applies heat to hair of a user, component generation unit (40) that generates a component that acts on the hair, and controller (80) that controls operations of heat application unit (30) and component generation unit (40). Component generation unit (40) is at least one of an ion generation unit that generates ions, an acidic component generation unit that generates an acidic component, and a charged fine particle water generation unit that generates charged fine particle water. Controller (80) controls a component amount of the component generated by component generation unit (40) based on hair characteristics of the user.
