  • Publication number: 20240065963
    Abstract: The instant disclosure generally relates to a multicomponent composition for coating mammalian or synthetic keratin material and textiles, the composition comprising a first and second components and a third component. The first and second components comprise first and second compounds respectively. Any one or more of the first, second and third components may also comprise pigment microparticles. The first, second and third compounds meld together on keratin material and textiles and especially on hair to form a coating that can be formulated to provide temporary coverage or provide permanent coverage. The multicomponent composition formed and set in situ as a solid linked coating ranges from ready removability to substantially permanent lastingness.

  • Publication number: 20230338262
    Abstract: The methods and compositions of the present invention are directed to coloration of anagenic hair. The methods involve priming and deep cleaning the anagenic hair followed by coating the hair strands with a composite pigment containing film of a small molecule and a film forming composition which covalently interact to form an intimate three dimensional silicone network incorporating the pigment on the surfaces of the hair.
