Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition, process for preparation and use of a novel hair dyeing composition in the personal care industry. The composition when used in the dyeing process for hair results in a permanent coloration to the hair and improves manageability of the hair and minimizes damage from dyeing process. The use of a cationic compound based upon meadowfoam seed oil provides unexpected penetration of the hair by the dye, unexpected oxidative stability in the dye compositions, and unexpected color deposition to the hair.

Claims (80)

1. A process for the simultaneous conditioning and dyeing of hair that comprises contacting the hair with an effective conditioning concentration of a composition that comprises:

12–20% by weight a mixture of

—(CH 2 ) 3 —CH═CH—(CH 2 ) 15 —CH 3 and

—(CH 2 ) 11 —CH═CH—(CH 2 ) 7 —CH 3

x is 2;

M is SO 4 CH 3 ;
