The invention is the use of a chelating agent with an ultrasonic device for the treatment of hair and other fibers. The treatment device includes an ultrasound generator, a comb device responsive to the generated ultrasonic waves, a reflector for reflecting the incident ultrasonic waves disposed on the distal end of the comb device, and a chelating agent preferably disposed within the treatment device. The treatment device efficaciously dispenses the chelating agent and ultrasonically treats the fiber. |
