Device ( ) for determining process data for a cosmetic treatment process for treating hair on the head of a person, with a microprocessor ( ), at least one storage ( ) containing at least one application program ( ), a data input device ( ), a data evaluation device ( ), at least one process data output device ( ), and a display device ( ), wherein the device ( ) is provided as a battery-operated hand-held device ( ), the storage or storages ( ) being contained in at least one optionally exchangeable module ( ); the application program ( ) contains at least one data table ( ) and application texts ( ) which communicate with the data input device ( ), the data evaluation device ( ), the process data output device ( ) and the display device ( ), a dialog menu management being provided via the display device ( ) as a data input device ( ) through use of a menu program ( ), and in that data is entered through use of a cursor function.

Device for determining method data of a method for cosmetically treating hair on a person's head

Methods of permanent shaping and volumizing hair that are gentle and prevent overcurling are described. In one method using curlers to curl the hair, an alkaline permanent shaping composition having a pH of 7.6 to 11 and including a hair keratin-reducing substance is applied to the hair and allowed to act on the hair for 5 to 30 minutes at room temperature or for 2 to 20 minutes at an elevated temperature. Then the hair is optionally rinsed with water and subsequently with an acidic aqueous intermediate rinse, which has a pH of 2 to 6.5 and includes an aliphatic organic acid. Next the hair is wound onto curlers, after which the hair is allowed to rest for 30 minutes at room temperature or 20 minutes at an elevated temperature. After the resting period the hair is treated with an oxidant-based fixative, which can be a solution of hydrogen peroxide, and the curlers are removed. The hair is subsequently rinsed with water or washed with a shampoo to remove the fixative and combed into a hair style. For methods of uncurling hair the method is similar, but the step of winding on curlers is replaced by a step of combing the hair out and the acidic aqueous intermediate treating agent is in the form of a gel, cream or paste.

Process and means for permanent hair-styling

The skin and hair treatment composition includes 0.5 to 2 percent by weight apple wax, 0.1 to 30 percent by weight of at least one anionic, cationic, amphoteric and/or nonionic surfactant, a solvent consisting of water, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, glycols or mixtures thereof and one or more cosmetic additives selected from the group consisting of perfume oils; opacifiers; pearlescing agents; bacterial and fungicidal ingredients; coconut fatty acid diethanolamide; buffer substances; coloring materials; solubilizers; light stabilizers; antioxidants; complexing agents and antidandruff active ingredients. Methods for obtaining the apple wax used in these compositions include extraction of depectinized apple pomace with a variety of solvents and purification and evaporation of the extract to obtain an apple wax product.

Heat treatment apparatus for heating human hair on the head

Process for permanently waving or straightening human hair comprising the steps of pretreating the hair with a detergent solution containing an alkali metal- or ammonium sulfite, saturating the hair with an alkaline solution of a mercaptocarboxylic acid salt, winding the hair up on perforated hollow curlers or rollers having a diameter of 10-24 mm, rinsing the hair with water and removing the excess water from the hair, in separate steps or in a combined step treating the hair with peroxide and with a polymerizate to fix and set the same respectively, drying the hair, unwinding the hair from the curlers and combing the hair in the conventional manner to provide the desired hair fashion.
