Abstract: A method for altering the color of hair comprising applying a bleach composition containing persulfate salts and at least one oxidizing agent to the desired strands of hair for a period of time sufficient to bleach the hair, removing the bleach composition from the hair but leaving at least some residual oxidizing agent on the bleached hair strands, then treating the hair with a colorant composition containing at least one dye operable to color hair in the presence of the residual oxidizing agent found on the bleached hair strands, said colorant composition being free of any oxidizing agents operable to react with the dye present therein to form color, whereby upon-contact with the colorant composition, the hair strands treated with the bleach composition having residual oxidizing agent thereon will react with the dye present in the colorant composition to cause the bleached hair strands to become colored, while any remaining unbleached hair will not become colored by contact with the colorant composition and

Abstract: A container for storing and dispensing flowable products comprising a receptacle for storing the flowable product, and a combination closure and applicator integral with the receptacle, where the closure is operable to open and close the receptacle and the applicator to apply the product directly to the desired surface; and a method for applying the cosmetic compositions to the desired surface using the container.

Abstract: A cosmetic container and packaged hair treatment composition comprising a receptacle having at least one opening and containing the hair treatment composition, an applicator for applying the hair treatment composition in the receptacle to the hair, which is attachable to the at least one opening of the receptacle, the applicator containing an internal channel feeding into at least one internal chambers having at least one external outlet surrounded by tines, a method for applying highlights to the hair using the package.
