Abstract
A hair-styling tool may include one or more pods that store liquid. For example, the hair-styling tool may include a removable, reusable water pod and/or a removable oil-formulation pod, which may correspond to a hair type of an individual. Moreover, during operation, the hair-styling tool may output or provide one or more discharges, such as: a steam discharge, an oil-formulation discharge, and/or a steam-and-oil-formulation discharge. The discharge flow may be selectable or dynamically adjusted based at least in part on the hair type of the individual, a predefined preference of the individual, and/or a predefined preference of a hair stylist. Moreover, the one or more discharges may be output of or provided from a head in the hair-styling tool. This head may include multiple prongs or tines that are used, in conjunction with the one or more discharges, to detangle or style an individual's hair.
