## Abstract

The present invention relates to a hair care device comprising a variable nozzle unit for discharging acidic water and, more specifically, to a hair care device comprising a variable nozzle unit for discharging acidic water, which supplies acidic water for a predetermined period of time to the hair cuticle damaged by exposure to an alkaline agent to perform perming, dyeing, or the like, thereby preventing continuous damage from alkaline residues and, at the same time, restores raised cuticle papillae to their original position to promote hair health, and is compatible with the hair positions of various users by varying the position of discharge nozzles according to the user's hair position.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A hair care device for improving a hair condition by discharging acidic water to a user's hair, comprising:
an electrolysis unit (100) configured to electrolyze water to generate alkaline water and acidic water; and
an acidic water discharge unit (200) configured to support the user's head portion and discharge the acidic water supplied from the electrolysis unit (100) toward the user's hair,
wherein the acidic water discharge unit (200) comprises a discharge nozzle (222) configured to variably fix a position for discharging the acidic water toward the user's hair.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The hair care device according to claim 1,
wherein the acidic water discharge unit (200) comprises:
a support housing (210) configured to support the user's head portion and collect the acidic water discharged from the discharge nozzle (222) and discharge the collected acidic water to the outside; and
a variable nozzle unit (220) coupled to the support housing (210) and configured to discharge the acidic water supplied from the electrolysis unit (100) to the user's head portion, while allowing a position of the discharge nozzle (222) to be varied.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The hair care device according to claim 2,
wherein the variable nozzle unit (220) comprises:
a flexible tube (221) coupled to the support housing (210) so as to allow its position to be varied, the flexible tube (221) being connected to the electrolysis unit (100) to receive the acidic water; and
a discharge nozzle (222) coupled to one end of the flexible tube (221) to receive the acidic water delivered therethrough and discharge the received acidic water.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The hair care device according to claim 1,
wherein the electrolysis unit (100) comprises:
a water storage unit (110) configured to store water;
a decomposition unit (120) configured to receive water from the water storage unit (110), perform electrolysis, and generate acidic water and alkaline water; and
an acidic water supply unit (130) configured to supply the acidic water generated by the decomposition unit (120) to the acidic water discharge unit (200).

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The hair care device according to claim 4,
wherein the electrolysis unit (100) further comprises:
a concentration sensor (140) configured to measure a pH concentration of the acidic water generated by the decomposition unit (120);
an electrolyte supply unit (150) configured to supply an electrolyte to the water storage unit (110); and
a control unit (160) configured to receive the pH concentration information from the concentration sensor (140) and control the electrolyte supply unit (150) to supply the electrolyte to the water storage unit (110) when the measured pH concentration is lower than a preset concentration.
