Abstract

A composition, kit and process for dyeing hair fibers in a manner which inhibits color loss during subsequent shampooing involving contacting the hair fibers with a composition containing: (a) at least one polyamine having at least two amino groups; (b) at least one anionic silicone; and (c) at least one dye component chosen from a direct dye and an oxidation dye, and wherein the dyed hair fibers inhibit color loss resulting from subsequent shampooing of the dyed hair fibers.

Claims (32)

1. A process for dyeing hair fibers in a manner which inhibits color loss during shampooing comprising contacting the hair fibers with a composition containing:

(a) at least one polyamine having at least two amino groups;

(b) at least one anionic silicone; and

(c) at least one dye component chosen from a direct dye and an oxidative dye.

2. The process of claim 1 wherein (a) is present in the composition in an amount of from greater than 0% to about 30% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

3. The process of claim 1 wherein (a) is present in the composition in an amount of from about 5 to about 10% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

4. The process of claim 1 wherein (a) is a polyethylene imine.

5. The process of claim 1 wherein (a) is a polyvinyl amine.

6. The process of claim 1 wherein (b) is a silicone phosphate.

7. The process of claim 1 wherein (b) is present in the composition in an amount of from greater than 0% to about 50% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

8. The process of claim 1 wherein (c) is a direct dye.

9. The process of claim 1 wherein (c) is an oxidative dye.

10. A composition for dyeing hair in a manner which inhibits color loss during shampooing comprising:

(a) at least one polyamine having at least two amino groups;

(b) at least one anionic silicone; and

(c) at least one dye component chosen from a direct dye and an oxidative dye.

11. The composition of claim 10 wherein (a) is present in the composition in an amount of from greater than 0% to about 30% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

12. The composition of claim 10 wherein (a) is present in the composition in an amount of from about 5 to about 10% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

13. The composition of claim 10 wherein (a) is a polyethylene imine.

14. The composition of claim 10 wherein (a) is a polyvinyl amine.

15. The composition of claim 10 wherein (b) is present in the composition in an amount of from greater than 0% to about 50% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

16. The composition of claim 10 wherein (c) is a direct dye.

17. The composition of claim 10 wherein (c) is an oxidative dye.

18. A kit for dyeing hair comprising:

(a) at least one unit containing a hair dyeing lotion;

(b) at least one unit containing a hair dyeing developer;

(c) at least one polyamine having at least two amino groups contained in (a) and/or (b); and

(d) at least one anionic silicone present in (a) and/or (b).

19. A kit for dyeing hair comprising:

(a) at least one unit containing a hair dyeing lotion;

(b) at least one unit containing a hair dyeing developer; and

(c) at least one unit containing (i) at least polyamine having at least two amino groups and (ii) at least one anionic silicone.
