Abstract: The present disclosure relates compositions and methods for altering the color of the hair, the compositions comprising at least one amino acid, at least one carboxylic acid, optionally at least one amine, and at least one hair coloring agent.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to hair coloring compositions; and to methods for coloring hair using the compositions. The hair coloring compositions are substantially anhydrous and include: one or more colorant; one or more glycols; one or more monoalcohols having from 2 to 6 carbon atoms; one or more cationic surfactants; and one or more fatty compounds.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to hair-coloring compositions comprising direct dyes, and aerosol hair-coloring products comprising the hair-coloring compositions. The hair-coloring compositions include: (a) at least one direct dye selected from nitro-phenylenediamines, nitro-aminophenols, azo dyes, anthraquinones, triarylmethane dyes, indophenols, and a mixture thereof; (b) at least one nonionic film forming polymer; (c) at least one thickening agent; (d) at least 40 wt. % of water, based on the total weight of the compositions; and (e) 40 wt. % or less of ethanol, based on the total weight of the composition. The hair-coloring compositions can be combined with a propellant and incorporated into a canister to provide a hair-coloring aerosol product. The compositions and aerosol products are useful for coloring hair.
