  • Patent number: 8317880
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition and a method of levelling hair color, especially lighter colored hair or including lightened streaks or bleached streaks or bleached as a whole and after certain period of time contrast—difference in color—between the re-growth and formerly lightened parts is clearly visible. The first objective of the present invention is an aqueous composition for levelling hair color comprising at least one fatty acid salt, preferably an in-situ formed ammonium salt, and one or more anionic surfactants at a total concentration between 5 and 30% by weight, calculated to total of the composition, and has a pH between 5 and 12. Furthermore, use of the composition for levelling hair color and a method of levelling hair color are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 6382068
    Abstract: A strip-shaped or reciprocating knife has at least ore elongated cutting blade (1) provided with a plurality of cutting teeth (2) and intermediate cutting gaps (5), the cutting teeth (2) being provided with additional, finer teeth (8). In order to achieve from beginning to end a smooth and clean cut of the goods to be cut, the additional teeth (8) are produced by providing opposite tooth spaces (9) on both sides of the knife, arranged so close to one another that sharp teeth (12) are formed between the spaces. The additional teeth provided on both sides of the knife form a sharp cutting edge which is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the knife and extends over the cutting teeth (2).
