Abstract: The present invention relates to personal care compositions comprising a copolymer complex and a volatile, hydrophobic solvent component for solubilizing or dispersing the copolymer complex. The copolymer complex is formed by complexing a fatty amine with a copolymer, wherein the copolymer comprises a hydrophobic monomer, a hydrophilic monomer such that at least 1%, by weight of the total copolymer, comprises hydrophilic monomers bearing acidic functional groups and, optionally, a hydrophobic macromonomer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to rinse-off hair care compositions which provide styling and hair conditioning properties without the formation of a non-removable residue. The compositions comprising from about 0.25% to about 70% of a copolymer component having a drying coefficient of less than about 3%; said copolymer component comprising from about 1.5% to 70% of a silicone-grafted adhesive hair styling copolymer having a weight average molecular weight from about 300,000 to about 5,000,000 and from about 30% to about 98.5% of a hydrophobic volatile solvent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to rinse-off hair care compositions that leave a low residue on the hair. These compositions have good hair style retention properties and have a natural, non-sticky feel upon the hair. These compositions comprise a hydrophobic copolymer component having a drying coefficient of less than about 3% and a carrier suitable for application to the hair. The copolymer component further comprises a hydrophobic copolymer and a volatile hydrophobic solvent. The copolymer has a cohesive breaking strength of greater than about 20 kg.sub.f /cm.sup.2, an adhesive strength of less than about 30 kg.sub.f /cm.sup.2, a cohesive breaking strain of less than about 100%, wherein the ratio of said cohesive breaking strength to said adhesive strength is greater than or equal to about 1.
