Method of rapid hair dyeing
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a method of hair coloring and bleaching compositions providing a composition comprising i) at least one source of peroxymonocarbonate ions, ii) at least one alkalizing agent, preferably a source of ammonium ions, and iii) at least one radical scavenger, wherein said composition has a pH of up to 9.5, and applying the composition to the hair and retaining on the hair for a period of less than 20 minutes, which provide a high level of lift and lightening and the required dye deposition and grey coverage whilst reducing the concentration of peroxide, the ammonia odor and reducing the hair fiber damage.
1. A method of oxidatively colouring or bleaching hair in less than about 20 minutes comprising the steps of:
i) providing a composition comprising at least one source of peroxymonocarbonate ions and at least one source of alkalizing agent, wherein said composition has a pH of from about 7.5 to about 9.5
ii) applying said composition on the hair and maintaining said composition on the hair for a time period of less than about 20 minutes, and subsequently
iii) rinsing said composition from the hair.
2. A method of sequential oxidative hair colouring or hair bleaching comprising the steps of at least two sequential oxidative hair colour or hair bleaching treatments wherein the time period between each treatment is from about 1 to about 60 days and wherein each treatment comprises the steps of i) providing a composition comprising at least one source of peroxymonocarbonate ions and at least one source of alkalizing agent, wherein said composition has a pH of from about 7.5 to about 9.5, and then ii) applying said composition to the hair and retaining said composition on the hair for a time period of less than about 20 minutes and subsequently iii) rinsing said composition from the hair.
3. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said method further comprises a first pre-treatment step, wherein a pre-treatment composition comprising at least one conditioning agent is applied to the hair.
4. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 3 , wherein said pre-treatment composition is not rinsed from the hair prior to the next step.
5. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said composition is maintained on the hair for a time period of less than about 15 minutes.
6. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said source of peroxymonocarbonate ions comprises at least one source of hydrogen peroxide and at least one source of carbonate ions, carbamate ions, hydrocarbonate ions, or mixtures thereof.
7. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one source of alkalizing agent is a source of ammonium ions.
8. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 6 , wherein said composition comprises:
b. from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of said at least one source hydrogen peroxide;
c. from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of said at least one source of alkalizing agent; and
d. from about 0.1% to about 15% by weight of said at least one source of carbonate ions, carbamate ions, hydrocarbonate ions, or mixtures thereof.
9. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises at least one oxidative dye and or at least one direct dye.
10. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises a radical scavenger.
11. A method of colouring or bleaching hair according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises a chelating agent.
