Abstract: A coloring method, wherein coloring agent or pigment is injected into active cells of an animal hide before the hide is harvested, and a coloring agent injection device with one or more needles, which are injected into the active cells of the hide of an animal whose hide is to be harvested. The coloring agent becomes fixed in the active cells of the hide, which ingest and spread said coloring agent.

Abstract: A method for the same-day permanent waving and coloring of hair ("same-day" meaning during a twenty-four hour period and preferably during a single session of only a few hours), which can provide to the hair improved shape retention, color receptivity, color stability, color retention, color evenness, color depth, shine, strength, softness, luster, and/or elasticity. After initial preparation (shampooing, treating with a pre-wrap, and placing on rods if the hair is to be curled), the hair is processed using a waving agent (e.g., thioglycolate), the excess is preferably removed, contacted with a first composition, the excess preferably removed, optionally but preferably contacted with a second composition, heated to dry the hair, and then contacted with a coloring composition containing an oxidative colorant and an oxidizing agent, the oxidizing agent helping develop the color and rebond the hair. The first and second compositions each contain a biologically acceptable metal (preferably a polyvalent metal, e.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for dyeing wood veneer. The veneer is immersed in a dye bath. The dye is preferably heated to speed up penetration times. The dye bath containing the veneer is then put into pressurized chamber and pressurized to 50-500 psi. The chamber is pressurized until the wood absorbs the amount of color that is desired. When the color is absorbed the pressure is released and the veneer is removed. The veneer is then washed with water until there is no bleeding and then air dried.
Abstract: An improved method for imparting a tint or color to a soft, hydrogel contact lens by uniformly dispersing a dye throughout the lens. The dye is a water-soluble halotriazine dye. The dye is reacted with a hydrophilic monomer to prepare a reactive dye containing predominantly monofunctionality. The monomer is then subjected to polymerization in the presence of a homogeneous solution of the reactive dye in the monomer under conditions to yield the hydrophilic polymer from which the lens is formed. The dye becomes bonded to the polymer during polymerization. The finished lens does not require soaking in an aqueous solution of the dye to impart the desired tint or color to the lens. Additionally, the dye uniformly dispersed throughout the lens according to the improved method does not leach out of the lens or migrate within the lens. Furthermore, the lens does not need to be washed with aqueous base to bond the dye to the lens.

Abstract: Hair upon the scalp or eyelashes are treated with hair coloring or mascara compositions in hair or eyelash coloring methods. The hair is typically colored with a mascara brush to achieve streaking and a non-homogenous coloring of the hair upon the scalp or the eyelash. A copaiba resin and a metal containing pigment are combined to obtain the hair coloring product. The resultant product is applied to the hair upon the scalp or the eyelash to effect coloring of the hair upon the scalp or the eyelash.
