Abstract: This invention relates to an improved formulation hair volumizers which comprise: (a) from 0.01-15 percent by weight (based on the total weight of the composition) of a selected liquid MQ resin having an M:Q ratio of 0.5-1.5 and a medium viscosity in the range of 1.0×103-1×106 centipoise; and (b) from 85-99.99 percent by weight (based on the total weight of the composition) of a hair care carrier (also called a vehicle). The compositions of this invention provide hair with increased volume without significant stiffness or stickiness and may be made in the form of a shampoo, conditioner, combination shampoo/conditioner, sprays, liquid rinses, gels or mousses.

Abstract: A system for enhancing the freezing and freeze-thaw stability of hair conditioning compositions has been developed which comprises incorporating therein a combination of low HLB (from about 2.0 to about 9.0) and high (from about 10.0 to about 19.0) HLB ethoxylated branched-chain fatty alcohol ethers and/or esters as freeze-thaw stabilizers while maintaining the pH of said emulsion in a range of about 2.0 to about 5.5.

Abstract: This invention relates to improved stabilized shampoo compositions containing siloxysilicate materials commonly referred to as MQ resins, wherein the stabilizers are selected from (i) long chain fatty alcohols with greater than 14 carbons; (ii) acrylates/steareth-20 methacrylate copolymer; acrylates copolymer; and acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer; and (iii) selected N,N-disubstituted phthalamic acids and their ammonium salts.
