  • Patent number: 8410037
    Abstract: The present invention is related to aqueous conditioning composition for hair comprising at least one alkyl glyceryl ether and at least one silicone compound with at least one quaternary ammonium group in its molecule. Conditioning composition of the present invention can be in the form of a shampoo, cleansing—conditioning composition, or in the form of a conditioner used after washing hair with cleansing compositions. It has surprisingly been found out that a composition comprising at least one alkyl glyceryl ether and at least one silicone compound with at least one quaternary ammonium group in its molecule gives hair shine, volume and body and hair treated with such a composition looks attractive and has its natural excellent shine, volume and body, elasticity, smoothness and it is easily manageable.
