Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to hair readers, dispenser devices, and related systems and methods. For example the present aaplication relates to a method of optically acquiring data from keratinous fibers, the method comprising: a. illuminating the keratinous fibers such that light reflected and/or deflected and/or transmitted by the fibers is incident upon a detector and converted into electrical signals by the detector; and b. computing, from electrical signals, a plurality of spectra of the keratinous fibers such that each spectrum of the plurality of spectra respectively corresponds to (i) a different respective portion of the keratinous fibers and/or (ii) material within a different sub-region of space within which at least a portion of the keratinous fibers are disposed.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for customized hair-coloring is disclosed. In some embodiments the method comprises: a. performing a plurality of light-scattering measurements upon a sample of hair such that for each light-scattering measurement, the sample of hair is illuminated from a different respective direction; b. comparing the results of the light-scattering measurements; c. in accordance with results of the comparing, computing an initial damage-state of hair of the sample by comparing the results of the light-scattering measurements; d. obtaining an initial color-state of the hair of the sample; and e. computing a hair-coloring composition that is predicted to transform the hair sample from the initial color-state to a target color-state such that in response to a determining of a greater (lesser) extent of initial damage, a concentration of artificial- colorant(s) within the computed coloring composition is reduced (increased).
Abstract:
Novel systems and methods for performing treatment (e.g., coloration) of keratinous fibers are disclosed. The methods and systems utilize one or more of a dispensing device which is configured to provide customized composition for treating keratinous fibers (e.g., a coloring composition), optionally formed from tablets; an optical reader, for obtaining sufficient characteristics of the keratinous fibers to make a realistic prediction of the outcome of a treatment (e.g., coloring treatment); a computational units for predicting an outcome of a treatment, optionally being interfaced with the dispensing device and for selecting a customized treatment; and tablet formulations which are useful in preparing customized composition for treating keratinous fibers. Further disclosed are rapidly disintegrating tablets for use in the preparation of compositions for treating keratinous fibers.
