Abstract: The instant disclosure generally relates to a coloring composition for coloring mammalian or synthetic keratin fibers or keratinous surfaces. The composition comprising a medium, optionally pigment microparticles and at least one dye, in particular at least one peri-arylene dye dissolved in the medium. Methods of using such compositions are also described herein.

Abstract: The instant disclosure generally relates to a dual component hair coloring composition for coloring mammalian or synthetic keratin fibers, the composition comprising composition A comprising a cationic polymer, pigment microparticles and an aqueous medium, and comprising composition B comprising an anionic polymer, aqueous medium and optional cross linking agent. Optionally or alternatively composition B may contain pigment particles. The cationic and anionic polymers are at least partially soluble in the medium and the pigment microparticles are dispersed therein. The hair coloring composition forms a dual layer coating upon application to keratin fibers such as hair and has a substantially permanent pigment lastingness following development (setting); minimally alters the keratin fibers, upon application; and substantially eliminates development time. Methods of using such compositions are also described herein.

Abstract: A method, a kit and a first composition for treating hair are provided. The method for treating hair comprises applying to the hair a first composition comprising in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, one or more linkers, or cosmetically acceptable salts thereof, or mixtures thereof; and applying to the hair a second composition comprising in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, one or more electrophile ingredients of Formula I, or cosmetically acceptable salts thereof, or mixtures thereof and wherein the first composition does not comprise any electrophile ingredients of Formula I of the second composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of hair colouring and bleaching compositions providing a composition comprising i) at least one source of peroxymonocarbonate ions, ii) at least one alkalizing agent, preferably a source of ammonium ions, and iii) at least one radical scavenger, wherein said composition has a pH of up to 9.5, and applying the composition to the hair and retaining on the hair for a period of less than 20 minutes, which provide a high level of lift and lightening and the required dye deposition and grey coverage whilst reducing the concentration of peroxide, the ammonia odour and reducing the hair fibre damage.

Abstract: The invention herein encompasses the use of aminosilicones to enhance the colour perception of artificially coloured hair. Also encompassed are compositions, a method of use, a kit-of-parts and an article of manufacture.
