Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods of hair styling in which the health condition of hair is determined based on the extent of hair damage and hair treatments such as cutting, coloring and penning are carried out under conditions most suitable to the extent of hair damage.
- Hair styling methods in the present invention include all hair treatments related to beauty and hairdressing such as haircutting, hair coloring and penning.
- the type of hair can be classified into hard and soft hairs, straight and wavy hairs, and curly hair. It has been said that straight hair having a virtually circular cross section is commonly seen in the Mongoloid such as the Japanese and the Chinese, wavy hair having an oval cross section is commonly seen in the Caucasian, and curly hair having a cave-in circular cross section is commonly seen in the Negroid. A mass of about 100 to 150 thousands of hair grows at the rate of approximately 1.2 cm every month and the life of hair is said to be about 3 to 5 years for men and about 4 to 6 years for women.
- hair of the Japanese is about 80 ⁇ m in diameter, which is thicker than the hair of the Westerner with 50 to 55 ⁇ m in diameter, and generally have a moisture content of about 11 to 16%, and as high as about 35 to 45% when dampened ("Popular Science: A Science in Hair Care” by Kao Life Science Research Institute, published by Srochukabo Inc., 1992).
- a highly alkaline liquid perming agent is widely known.
- hair is permed typically by combing or rolling the hair round a roll to add the tension while applying a highly alkaline liquid perming agent to the hair to change molecular linkages of a protein molecule of the hair component.
- a protein conditioner has been used to restore the damages.
- a conditioner improves the texture and gloss of hair by supplying the protein, which oxidizes the hair to return it to a normal state at a molecular level.
- an acidic neutralizing liquid is used because oxidization is accelerated.
- permanent treatments using strong chemical substances are often hazardous and cause hair loss and damage on the hair and the scalp in the long run.
- an alkaline perming lotion is generally used as hard cream or paste.
- cream or paste is hard to cleanse.
- an oily substance is occasionally added to a liquid agent as an oil-in-water emulsion.
- a liquid agent is also hard to cleanse. If a residue of an alkaline penning lotion remains, effectiveness of the improvement of the hair structure by conditioning declines.
- EP-A-0619088 describes a hair processing method comprising dividing whole hair into a plurality of bundles and pressing each of said bundles by a pressing means, said pressing means being formed in a shape of a crave or the like.
- monitoring and controlling the extent of hair damage is a critical measure to get the best and consistent result in a perming procedure.
- there is no reliable method available for monitoring and/or controlling the extent of the damage Furthermore, there is an urgent need to accurately and consistently monitor the rate and appropriate point of the reaction between an alkaline liquid perming agent and the hair in a perming procedure.
- the present inventors noted that when hair is chemically or thermally treated, it is necessary to maintain healthy balance of hair components, i.e., medulla, cortex and cuticle. Namely, the present inventors found that it is appropriate to diagnose the health condition of hair according to the extent of hair damage and then treat the hair based on the diagnose to minimize additional damage as much as possible, and thus completed the present invention.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method of selecting an appropriate hair styling treatment for a client, in which the frequency of perming, coloring, straightening and shampooing, the state of home caring and the use of hair care products are monitored and thus client's hair state is diagnosed to accurately understand the extent of damage and the health condition of the hair.
- the most appropriate hair treatment can be provided for a client by thoroughly considering the extent of damage or the health condition of the hair of a client to avoid inconvenience such that hair is waved in different shapes depending on the health condition of the hair, or the state of cuticles, the waviness varies depending on treatment time with a penning agent, or the wave changes depending on the extent of damage caused by the tension or the like during winding.
- client's hair is diagnosed in terms of the present state of perming and coloring, or the external appearance or waviness of the hair, and further the state of bleaching.
- an embodiment of the present invention can be repeatedly and continuously implemented and is sufficiently applicable to a number of people on an industrial scale.
- the present invention essentially comprises the features defined in the claims.
- one critical condition is to determine the extent of damage of client's hair for diagnosing the health condition of the hair using indices such as external hair appearance.
- the extent of hair damage is determined according to criteria shown in Table 1.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to methods of hair styling in which the health condition of hair is determined based on the extent of hair damage and hair treatments such as cutting, coloring and penning are carried out under conditions most suitable to the extent of hair damage.
- Hair styling methods in the present invention include all hair treatments related to beauty and hairdressing such as haircutting, hair coloring and penning.
- The type of hair can be classified into hard and soft hairs, straight and wavy hairs, and curly hair. It has been said that straight hair having a virtually circular cross section is commonly seen in the Mongoloid such as the Japanese and the Chinese, wavy hair having an oval cross section is commonly seen in the Caucasian, and curly hair having a cave-in circular cross section is commonly seen in the Negroid. A mass of about 100 to 150 thousands of hair grows at the rate of approximately 1.2 cm every month and the life of hair is said to be about 3 to 5 years for men and about 4 to 6 years for women. It is also said that hair of the Japanese is about 80 µm in diameter, which is thicker than the hair of the Westerner with 50 to 55 µm in diameter, and generally have a moisture content of about 11 to 16%, and as high as about 35 to 45% when dampened ("Popular Science: A Science in Hair Care" by Kao Life Science Research Institute, published by Shochukabo Inc., 1992).
- Conventionally, not only adult women but also young women generally get hair treatments for perming or curling, which often cause hair damage. These treatments include a number of permanent treatments, such as rod permanent treatment in which a variation in waves is made with different sizes of rods; pin permanent treatment which provides a compact finish with various kinds of style depending on different kinds of curling; spiral permanent treatment in which a bundle of hair is twisted and wound round a rod or aluminum foil; twisting permanent treatment in which a bundle of hair is pined as if being screwed to make irregular waves; permanent straightening treatment in which curly hair is straightened and the hair volume is reduced; aluminum permanent treatment in which a bundle of hair is rapped with an aluminum foil; wire permanent treatment in which a bundle of hair is freely wound round a wire and pined to make naturally-looking curly hair, and other permanent treatments using half-split chopsticks or U-shaped pins.
- A highly alkaline liquid perming agent is widely known. In permanent treatment, generally, hair is permed typically by combing or rolling the hair round a roll to add the tension while applying a highly alkaline liquid perming agent to the hair to change molecular linkages of a protein molecule of the hair component. Conventionally, when the hair has damages such as frizziness or splitting, a protein conditioner has been used to restore the damages.
- A conditioner improves the texture and gloss of hair by supplying the protein, which oxidizes the hair to return it to a normal state at a molecular level. At the same time, an acidic neutralizing liquid is used because oxidization is accelerated. Thus, permanent treatments using strong chemical substances are often hazardous and cause hair loss and damage on the hair and the scalp in the long run.
- In order to avoid such direct application to the scalp, an alkaline perming lotion is generally used as hard cream or paste. However, such cream or paste is hard to cleanse. Further, in order to protect the scalp, an oily substance is occasionally added to a liquid agent as an oil-in-water emulsion. However, such a liquid agent is also hard to cleanse. If a residue of an alkaline penning lotion remains, effectiveness of the improvement of the hair structure by conditioning declines. Thus, conventionally, there existed no perming lotion that can further improve the texture and gloss of hair and be easily and completely cleansed from the hair.
- EP-A-0619088 describes a hair processing method comprising dividing whole hair into a plurality of bundles and pressing each of said bundles by a pressing means, said pressing means being formed in a shape of a crave or the like.
- Accordingly, monitoring and controlling the extent of hair damage is a critical measure to get the best and consistent result in a perming procedure. However, there is no reliable method available for monitoring and/or controlling the extent of the damage. Furthermore, there is an urgent need to accurately and consistently monitor the rate and appropriate point of the reaction between an alkaline liquid perming agent and the hair in a perming procedure.
- Under these conditions, ordinary penning treatments had been reluctantly carried out without taking the extent of the damage and health conditions of hair into consideration. As a result, hair was waved in different shapes depending on the health conditions of the hair or the waviness was different depending on the treatment time with a perming agent. Further, the hair was waved not necessarily as designed because of the extended damage due to the tension or the like during winding. Further, hair was treated under unspecific general conditions as mentioned above without taking the extent of damage and health conditions of the hair into consideration and often suffered irrecoverable damages accordingly. Repetition of such treatments occasionally caused incurable hair loss.
- Accordingly, the present inventors noted that when hair is chemically or thermally treated, it is necessary to maintain healthy balance of hair components, i.e., medulla, cortex and cuticle. Namely, the present inventors found that it is appropriate to diagnose the health condition of hair according to the extent of hair damage and then treat the hair based on the diagnose to minimize additional damage as much as possible, and thus completed the present invention.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method of selecting an appropriate hair styling treatment for a client, in which the frequency of perming, coloring, straightening and shampooing, the state of home caring and the use of hair care products are monitored and thus client's hair state is diagnosed to accurately understand the extent of damage and the health condition of the hair.
- In the present invention, the most appropriate hair treatment can be provided for a client by thoroughly considering the extent of damage or the health condition of the hair of a client to avoid inconvenience such that hair is waved in different shapes depending on the health condition of the hair, or the state of cuticles, the waviness varies depending on treatment time with a penning agent, or the wave changes depending on the extent of damage caused by the tension or the like during winding.
- According to the present invention, in a hair coloring or hair ironing procedure, client's hair is diagnosed in terms of the present state of perming and coloring, or the external appearance or waviness of the hair, and further the state of bleaching.
- Furthermore, although the present invention is intended for a human body, an embodiment of the present invention can be repeatedly and continuously implemented and is sufficiently applicable to a number of people on an industrial scale.
- Namely, the present invention essentially comprises the features defined in the claims.
- In the present invention, one critical condition is to determine the extent of damage of client's hair for diagnosing the health condition of the hair using indices such as external hair appearance.
- In the present invention, the extent of hair damage is determined according to criteria shown in Table 1.
Table 1. Table for diagnosing the health condition Extent of damage (diagnostic indices) Grade 1Grade 2Grade 3Perming design Whole penning Fine waving Dread Partial perming (about 10 mm) (about 5mm) Tip perming Souvage Aluminum perming Twist perming Perming curing Whole straightening Kinky surface Partial straightening Extemal hair appearance Tip splitting Broken hair State of coloring Whole coloring Coloring White bleachning Partial coloring (Brightness: Bleaching 5 to 8 tones) (Brightness: over 8 tones) - In the present invention, it is essential diagnose the current condition of hair in terms of diagnostic indices, i.e., "perming design", "perming curing", "external hair appearance," and "a state of coloring" and classify into "
grade 1," "grade 2", and "grade 3," as shown in Table 1 "Table for diagnosing the health condition." - According to the table for diagnosis of the present invention above, "whole perming," "partial perming," and "tip perming" are designated as
grade 1 damage, "fine waving (about 10 mm)", "souvage," and "twist perming" are designated asgrade 2 damage, and "dread (about.5 mm)" and "aluminum penning" are designated asgrade 3 damage, in the diagnostic index "perming design." - Furthermore, "whole straightening" and "partial straightening" are designated as
grade 1 damage, and "kinky surface" is designated asgrade 2 damage in the diagnostic index "perming curing." Further, "tip splitting" and "broken hair" are designated asgrade 2 damage in the diagnostic index "external hair appearance." Similarly in the diagnostic index "state of coloring," "whole coloring" and "partial coloring" are designated asgrade 1 damage, "coloring (brightness: 5 to 8 tones)" is designated asgrade 2 damage, and "coloring (brightness: over 8 tones)" is designated asgrade 3 damage. - Next, an example of the determination of the extent of hair damage (the sum total of the grade) according to Table 1 will be explained.
- Hair of one client is observed and scored according to the criterion in Table and the extent of hair damage, i.e., the sum total of the grade is calculated. Namely, the hair is thoroughly permed (i.e., whole perming: grade 1), colored partially at a tone of 4 (partial coloring: grade 1), wholly twist-permed (twist perming: grade 2), and further white-bleached (white bleaching: grade 3) and thus the extent of hair damage is the sum total of 7 (= grade 1 x 2 +
grade 2 + grade 3). - Further, in the abovementioned diagnosis of the present invention, attention should be paid to distinguish between soft hair and hard hair and to differentiate the stem part and the tip part of the hair particularly in intensively damaged hair.
-
- Figure 1 shows the extent of hair damage according to the properties of the hair shown in Table 1.
- Figure 2 shows means of preparatory treatment and necessary softening time according to the extent of hair damage.
- Figure 3 shows the standard for selection of the liquid chemical, reaction time with the liquid chemical, and ironing temperatures.
- The present invention will be explained in more detail using the drawings and table.
- Figure 1 shows the extent of hair damage (the sum total of the grade) and innate characteristics of hair according to Table 1 "Table for diagnosing the health condition" Figure 2 shows the relationship between means of preparatory treatment and necessary softening time according to the extent of hair damage and Figure 3 shows the standard for selection of the liquid chemical, reaction time with the liquid chemical (time for soaking in the liquid chemical), and ironing temperatures when heating iron is used.
- Further, the followings will specifically explain the means of preparatory treatment, necessary softening, standard for selecting a liquid chemical, reaction time with the liquid chemical, ironing temperatures, according to the extent of hair damage. However, it should be understood that these examples are for purpose of illustration only and the essence of the present invention is basically a method of appropriately treating the hair according to the extent of hair damage.
- According to Figure 1, the extent of hair damage is generally in the range of 0 to 4. If the figure exceeds this range, particularly over 6, the health condition of the hair is deemed to be damaged, which requires a gentle and moderate treatment for perming or coloring.
- According to Figure 2, steaming can be carried out without any problem as a pretreatment procedure for perming when hair has no damage. However, spray of treatment water, a so-called "hair water treatment" is required when hair is damaged even to a small extent Further, the hair should be treated according to the extent of the damage when the extent exceeds 2.
- As shown in Figure 2, hard hair has to be pretreated using a polypeptide protein supplement ("PPT" treatment), a hair nutrient "5-fold treatment lotion" in addition to "PTT," and "squalane oil" in addition to "PTT" and "5-fold treatment lotion." Soft hair has to be pretreated using "essence" instead of "PPT" and "3-fold treatment lotion" instead of"5-fold treatment lotion." Further, a waving agent has to be used for both hard hair and soft hair. A common "waving agent" is used when the extent of damage is less than 5-6 and a "cysteine waving agent" is used when the extent of damage exceeds 5-6.
- Softening time is set to 20 minutes when the extent of damage is 0. However, the time must be shortened as the damage level increases.
- As shown in Figure 3, penning agents used are a hard type, a normal type, and a soft type when scores for the extent of damage are less than 2, 2-10, and more than 10, respectively. Further, a common "waving agent" and a "cysteine waving agent" are used when the extent of damage are less than 6 and over 6, respectively.
- Furthermore, in terms of relationship between the reaction time with a liquid chemical (applying time) and the extent of damage, as the extent of damage increases starting from 0, the reaction time with the liquid chemical must be shortened For example, the reaction times are about 20, 10 and 5 minutes when scores for the extent of damage are 0,5, and 10, respectively. Further, when heat treatment is used for penning, hair having the extent of damage of less than 5 is treated at 180°C for long hair and 160°C for short hair and hair having the extent of damage of 4-7 is treated at 160 °C for both short hair and long hair. Further, hair having the extent of damage of 7-9 has to be treated at 130°C for both long hair and short hair and hair having the extent of damage of more than 9 has to be treated at 100°C for both long hair and short hair.
- In the present invention, the health condition of client's hair is thoroughly understood prior to hair treatment by diagnosing the extent of damage in terms of current perming, coloring, straightening, frequency of shampooing, home caring, use of hair care products, and the like so that the most appropriate treatment procedure for styling can be selected. Such a preliminary diagnose of hair makes it possible to minimize potential hair damage due to inappropriate perming and coloring and maintain hair stability for a long period of time.
- Further, hair can be most appropriately and timely treated responding to client's request by keeping record cards for the health condition of client's hair.
- A method of the present invention is thus durable, repeatable, highly utilizable in industry, and highly contributory to society.
