Abstract: An aqueous hair treatment composition comprising: a) at least one silicone pressure sensitive adhesive; and b) at least one material selected from the group consisting of a hair conditioning agent, a hair cleansing agent, and an agent for hair care suspension, is described.

Abstract: This invention relates to an aqueous hair treatment comprising coated particles comprising a solid core having a D3, 2 average particle size in the range from 10 to 700 nm, and a coating polymer covalently bonded to the solid core. Use of the coated particles in a hair treatment composition to impart body to the hair is also described.

Abstract: This invention relates to an aqueous conditioner composition comprising (i) a cationic surfactant, (ii) a fatty alcohol material, and (iii) from 0.01 to 10 wt % coated particles comprising (a) a solid core having a D3,2 average particle size in the range from 10 to 700 nm, and (b) a coating of silicone polymer covalently bonded to the solid core. Use of the coated particles in a conditioner composition to impart body to the hair is also disclosed.

Abstract: This invention relates to an aqueous hair care composition comprising water-insoluble particles having a layered structure comprising oxygen atoms and silicon and/or phosphorus atoms, and comprising organic functional groups which are bonded to silicon and/or phosphorus atoms in the layers by covalent bonds.

Abstract: A hair care composition which comprises (a) one or more polymer systems in the form of discrete particles, wherein said particles are swollen with a non-aqueous solvent; and (b) water or a hydroalcoholic solution carrier, are described. A method for treating hair which comprises contacting said hair with compositions of the invention is also described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to hair conditioning shampoo compositions which includes: 1) from about 0.05 to about 5% of one or more dibasic amino acids; 2) from about 5 to about 50% of one or more surfactants; 3) from about 0.05 to about 10% of one or more silicone compounds; and 4) water. The invention also relates to hair conditioning compositions. The invention also relates to a method for conditioning the hair, which comprises contacting said hair with a composition according to the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to aqueous hair care compositions including conditioners, shampoos, and mousses. The invention also relates to methods of treating hair, and more particularly to treating hair with aqueous hair care compositions which contain one or more elastomeric resinous materials. These materials when tested at the same concentration that could be incorporated into a product exhibit a G′ modulus between 1×102 and 1×105 dynes/cm2. Furthermore these resins when mixed with a hydrophilic or hydrophobic diluent at a ratio of 1:95 to 95:1% and this mixture then incorporated into an aqueous emulsion in the range of 0.1 to 10% have been demonstrated to deliver a consumer perceptible increase in hair body without sacrificing conditioning attributes.
