Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing a hair conditioning composition, wherein the composition comprising: a mono-alkyl amine cationic surfactant; a high melting point fatty compound; an anionic polymer comprising higher % of a vinyl monomer (A) with a carboxyl group; and an aqueous carrier, wherein the method comprises a step: mixing the cationic surfactant, high melting point fatty compound, anionic polymer and aqueous carrier to form an emulsion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing a hair conditioning composition, wherein the composition comprising: a mono-alkyl amine cationic surfactant; a high melting point fatty compound; an anionic polymer comprising higher % of a vinyl monomer (A) with a carboxyl group; a polyol; and an aqueous carrier, wherein the method comprises the steps: mixing the cationic surfactant, high melting point fatty compound, polyol and aqueous carrier to form an emulsion; and adding the anionic polymer to the emulsion before, during or after forming the emulsion. The method of the present invention provides hair conditioning compositions having reduced chunks while containing both mono-alkyl amine cationic surfactants and anionic polymers containing higher % of vinyl monomer with carboxyl group.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hair conditioning composition comprising: a cationic surfactant; a high melting point fatty compound having a melting point of 25° C. or higher; a material having a refractive index of from about 1.30 to about 1.70; and an aqueous carrier, wherein a composition has a transmittance of at least about 0.5%. The composition is further specified by either: (i) the material is a polyol having at least 3 hydroxyl groups and the polyol is contained at a level of above 30% to about 80% by weight of the composition; or (ii) the cationic surfactant is a salt of a mono-long alkyl amine and an acid. The compositions provides both translucent appearance and conditioning benefits, especially conditioning benefit on wet hair when used as a rinse-off conditioner and/or spreadability on hair.
