  • Patent number: 11679073
    Abstract: A hair care composition providing improved in-use wet feel. The composition can contain from about 20% to about 45%, by weight, of a detersive surfactant, from about 0.01% to about 2.5%, by weight, of a cationic synthetic polymer, and from about 0.01% to about 2.5%, by weight, of a cationic guar polymer. The hair care composition can produce a final rinse friction of from about 600 gf to about 2000 gf and a delta final to initial from about 100 gf to about 600 gf. The hair care composition can be applied to the hair when it is dispensed from an aerosol foam dispenser as a foam.
