Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods, compositions, and kits for treating hair. The methods entail the use of multiple compositions, which can be incorporated into kits. The methods include: (I) optionally, cleansing the hair, for example, with a cleansing composition such as a shampoo; (II) optionally, treating the hair with a rinse-off conditioning mask, and rinsing the rinse-off conditioning mask from the hair; (III) applying a leave-on hair-treatment composition to the hair; (IV) without removing the leave-on hair-treatment composition, subsequently applying a leave-on hair crème to the hair; and (V) without removing the leave-on hair-treatment composition and the leave-on hair crème, styling the hair. The methods provide durable styling and conditioning benefits, frizz control/curl definition, and general hair manageability qualities.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cleansing compositions, which are free of sulfates and ethoxylated surfactants. Methods for making and using the cleansing compositions are also described. The cleansing compositions include: (a) at least 3 wt. % of one or more nonionic surfactant(s) that are not fatty esters; (b) one or more fatty ester(s); (c) one or more non-ethoxylated, sulfate-free anionic surfactant(s); and (d) two or more thickening agents. The cleansing compositions exhibit quality cleansing activity, impart pleasant conditioning benefits, and have a desired viscosity and foam properties.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a composition comprising, in an aqueous medium: (a) at least one anti-dandruff agent; (b) at least one viscosity modifying agent; (c) at least acrylic-based polymeric compound different from the viscosity modifying agent; (d) at least two surfactants chosen from amphoteric surfactants and zwitterionic surfactants; and (e) optionally, at least one conditioning agent. The present invention also relates to a process for the care of hair and/or scalp.
