Abstract: A holder for a tool of the type having a belt clip includes a rigid base having a front side, a rear side, a top edge, a bottom edge, and two side edges. At least one rigid belt loop is fixed with the rear side of the rigid base and is open therethrough between side edges thereof for receiving a belt of a person. A rigid front panel is held away from the front side of the rigid base by at least two vertical standoffs. The rigid front panel includes a cut-out portion adapted to receive the belt clip of the tool therein. In use, with the rigid base fixed with the person's belt, the belt clip of the tool is positioned within the cut-out portion of the rigid front panel and then lowered until the belt clip is retained between the rigid front panel and the rigid base.

Abstract: i) an alkali metal salt of an aldonic acid; ii) 0.1 to 5 wt %, citric acid by weight of the total composition; and iii) a surfactant; wherein the composition has a pH of from 3 to 5, provides repair to damaged internal protein of hair.
