  • METHOD OF COLORING HAIR WITH DIRECT DYE COMPOUNDS
    Publication number: 20180078479
    Abstract: Described herein is a method of dyeing the hair. The method includes applying to the hair a hair color composition including one or more direct dye compounds and rinsing the hair with water. The one or more direct dye compounds each include a chromophore, one or two permanent cations, one to four incipient cations, and one or more hydrophobic moieties. The incipient cations are pendant to the core structure and are neutral. The one or more direct dye compounds enter the hair shaft after the hair color composition is applied to the hair. The hair color composition has a pH of from about 7 to about 11. The pH of the hair after rinsing is from about 3.5 to about 6. The rinsing of the hair causes one or more of the one to four incipient cations to change from neutral to positively charged inside of the hair shaft.

  • MULTI-FUNCTION BUTTON FOR COMPUTING DEVICES
    Publication number: 20170344733
    Abstract: A computing device is described that receives fingerprint data that is generated by at least one sensor of the computing device and determines, based on a comparison of the fingerprint data with data associated with a fingerprint of an authorized user of the computing device, whether to authorize access to one or more applications that are executable by the computing device. Responsive to determining that access to the one or more applications is authorized, the computing device determines a gesture indicated by the fingerprint data, selects, based on the gesture, an application of the one or more applications as a selected application, and outputs, for display, a graphical user interface of the selected application.
