The Applied Research Center of New York College of Health Professions has been awarded US Patent No. 9,750,325 for Colorball, its disposable tube which makes mixing hair colorant and the developer, normally a messy job, a simple one-step process.
When the button is depressed, it allows the inner tubes to flow onto the rollerball mixing the dye and developer. Colorball can be the size of a pen for accurate placement of highlights or streaking, or wider with a larger rollerball for instant root touchups or broader hair color. It is great for beards and mustaches too, according to the brand. The patent also covers the process for brushes and other direct applicators.
“It will be for hair color what one-click was for Amazon,” said Lisa Pamintuan, president of New York College.
