In a third step, the strand 12 and the support 18 are assembled to the device 16. More specifically, the rod 26 of the antenna 22 is inserted into the support 18. Then, said antenna 22 is arranged in the cavity 36 of a first element 34 of the case, the cable 30 being arranged in the groove 40. The strand 12 is arranged so that the second portion 52 of said strand 12 is arranged in the notches 44 of the edge 38 of the cavity 36. Afterwards, the second element 34 of the case is folded over, so as to place said case in a closed configuration and to form the chamber 24. The second portion 52 of the strand 12 protrudes outwards of said chamber, through openings formed by the notches 44.
In a fourth step of exposure to microwaves, the generator 20 emits microwaves, at preset power and frequency. Thus, through the antenna 22, the first portion 50 of the strand 12, arranged inside the chamber 24, is exposed to a microwave radiation.
In reaction with the water contained in the cosmetic composition 14, the microwaves allow, in particular, generating heat within the keratin fibers and cause chemical reactions between said fibers and compounds present in the cosmetic composition 14.
For example, the duration of the step of exposure to microwaves is in the range of a few minutes. According to the first aspect of the invention, the duration of the step of exposure to microwaves preferably varies from 1 minute to 10 minutes, more preferably from 2 to 5 minutes. According to the second aspect of the invention, the duration of the step of exposure to microwaves preferably varies from 5 minutes to 30 minutes, more preferably from 10 to 20 minutes. According to the third aspect of the invention, the duration of the step of exposure to microwaves preferably varies from 1 minute to 30 minutes, more preferably from 1 minute to 10 minutes.
According to an embodiment of the first aspect of the invention, the cosmetic treatment method further comprises a step of applying a setting composition on the keratin fibers. Said setting composition comprises at least one oxidizing compound, such as sodium bromate or hydrogen peroxide in an aqueous solution.
Preferably, said step of applying a setting composition is implemented after the first step of impregnation of the cosmetic composition 14 on the keratin fibers. Even more preferably, said step of applying the setting composition is implemented after the abovedescribed fourth step of exposure to microwaves.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the cosmetic treatment method then comprises a step of rinsing the hair strand 12, preferably with water, after the fourth step of exposure to microwaves.
According to an embodiment of the third aspect of the invention, the cosmetic treatment method further comprises a step of applying a treatment composition on the hair strand 12, said treatment application having an acidic pH. Said step of applying a treatment composition is carried out after exposure to microwaves. Said step of applying a treatment composition may be carried out before or after a rinsing step as described hereinabove.
The above-described cosmetic treatment method enables a rapid and effective shaping of the hair, in particular in a curly, wavy or smooth form. The shaping has a satisfactory hold duration, in particular in the range of a few months. In addition, the treated hair is not, or barely, degraded by the cosmetic treatment, which allows renewing said treatment frequently.
Hence, such a cosmetic treatment is suitable for a frequent reshaping of the hair, in order to vary the physical appearance of the users on demand.
