Abstract: An oxidative dye composition comprising one or more oxidative dyes, at least one glyceryl ester, and at least one surfactant, a method for coloring hair, and a method for coloring First Grays and hair that has been chemically processed with a mild, easy to use, hair color.

Abstract: A two step high lift method for oxidatively coloring hair comprising a first step of applying to the hair a lifting mixture comprised of an aqueous oxidizing agent composition and a lifting composition to the hair for a period of time sufficient to lift the hair, followed by a second step of applying an inactivated oxidative dye composition for a period of time sufficient to color the hair, and a method for improving color vibrancy and tone, evenness of color, and reducing brassiness in high lift oxidatively colored hair.

Abstract: A method for merchandising hair color, highlight, or lowlight kits based upon the consumer's self-classification of hair color, hair tone, skin tone, and/or eye color into a pre-determined category.

Abstract: An oxidative hair color kit for touching up hair between oxidative hair color procedures comprising at least one first receptacle suitable for mixing and applying an oxidative hair dye mixture prepared by combining and oxidative dye composition and an aqueous oxidizing agent compositions, containing at least one of the oxidative dye composition or the aqueous oxidizing agent composition but not both, at least one second receptacle containing the composition not found in the first receptacle, and at least one applicator that can be affixed to the first receptacle for use in applying the contents of the receptacle to the hair; and a method for touching up the hair between hair color procedures.

Abstract: A kit and method for applying lowlights to hair

Abstract: A hair product applicator for applying hair product to the hair comprised of a handle having a proximal end and a distal end; and affixed to the distal end of the handle a retaining structure formed by a plurality of pyramid shaped teeth extending upwardly from the handle; and a method for applying hair products to the hair using the applicator.

Abstract: A hair bleach mixture obtained by combining an aqueous oxidizing agent composition and a persulfate composition comprising at least one hydrophobically modified particulate, said hydrophobically modified particulate being present in the mixture in an amount sufficient to reduce diffusion and/or migration of the mixture from the hair strands to which it is applied; and a method and kit for bleaching hair.

Abstract: A method for oxidatively coloring hair comprising applying to the hair fibers a first composition comprising at least one oxidative dye operable to color hair when reacted with an oxidizing agent, said first composition being free of such oxidizing agent and thereby inoperative, by itself, to color hair; removing said first composition from the hair but leaving residual oxidative dye in contact with the hair fibers; applying, for a time, and in an amount sufficient to color the hair, a second composition to the hair fibers comprising at least one oxidizing agent reactive with the at least one oxidative dye in contact with the hair fibers after removal of the first composition; and a kit for use in practicing the method.
