Abstract: A hair dryer is provided that includes a touch-sensitive display screen responsive to a computer-based control processor. The control processor is configured with control logic to execute adjustment of dryer operating parameters in response to input received from the touch-sensitive screen, where the operating parameters include at least one of air temperature, air speed and ion content.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and composition for transforming hair. The composition is a dual composition that is useful to curl or straighten hair. The composition also repairs hair. The reducing solution includes monoethanolamine and thioglycolic acid and is essentially ammonium hydroxide free.

Abstract: A composition and method for simultaneously lightening and coloring hair. The composition generally consists of three components, specifically, a bleaching composition, an oxidizing composition and a dyeing composition. The composition preferably lightens hair color by a plurality of levels and simultaneously deposits tones that are attractive and long lasting. In a preferred embodiment, the bleaching composition is a powder composition based on silicate and/or carbonate salts and/or persulfate salts of ammonium, potassium or sodium. The persulfate bleaching composition can be ammonia-free, if desired. The oxidizing composition is preferably an anhydrous hydrogen peroxide solution, or another source of oxygen. The bleaching composition can be mixed with the oxidizing composition to form an anhydrous creme that is applied to the hair.

Abstract: A composition and method for use in hair care and treatment. The composition of the present invention preferably includes a ceramic material and a hair preparation, whereby the composition delivers infrared radiation and ionic molecules to the hair when the composition is applied to the hair. A method of using the composition includes the step of applying the composition to the hair. A method of making the composition includes the steps of forming the one or more ceramic or non-ceramic materials into a powder or into fine particles and mixing the powder or fine particles with the hair preparation.
