Abstract

The present invention relates to a hair care component and method of manufacture for use in a hair coloring system. In one embodiment of the invention, a hair care component for use in a hair coloring system includes a mixture resulting from blending an aqueous solution, an emulsion, and a cationic water-in-oil liquid dispersion of an alkylene, olefinically unsaturated (alkyl)amide. The emulsion includes a polysiloxane (A)-polyoxyalkylene (B) block copolymer of an (A-B) n -type. The copolymer includes an aminofunctional silicone. The liquid dispersion inverts from the water-in-oil phase to an oil-in-water phase when mixed with the aqueous solution.

Claims (36)

1. A hair care component for use in a hair coloring system, the hair care component comprising:

a mixture resulting from blending:

an aqueous solution;

an emulsion comprising a polysiloxane (A)-polyoxyalkylene (B) block copolymer, wherein the copolymer includes an aminofunctional silicone; and

a cationic water-in-oil liquid dispersion comprising an alkylene, olefinically unsaturated (alkyl)amide, wherein the liquid dispersion inverts from the water-in-oil phase to an oil-in-water phase when mixed with the aqueous solution.

2. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the polysiloxane comprises an amodialkylicone.

3. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the polyoxyalkylene comprises a polyether.

4. The hair care component of claim 3 , wherein the polysiloxane comprises an amodimethicone.

5. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the alkylene, olefinically unsaturated (alkyl)amide comprises a quaternary alkylene bis(meth)acrylamide.

6. The hair care component of claim 1 , further comprising a cationic hempseed component.

7. The hair care component of claim 6 , further comprising at least one of a bioactive enzyme component, a chelator component, a thickener component, and a film former component.

8. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the emulsion comprises from 0.5 wt % to 10 wt % on a percent solids basis of the weight of the hair care component.

9. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the emulsion comprises from 3 wt % to 5 wt % on a percent solids basis of the weight of the hair care component.

10. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the liquid dispersion comprises an active component having a weight ranging from 0.05 wt % to 5.1 wt % on a percent solids basis of the active component of the weight of the hair care component.

11. The hair care component of claim 1 , wherein the liquid dispersion comprises an active compound having a weight ranging from 0.45 wt % to 6.3 wt % on a percent solids basis of the active component of the weight of the hair care component.

12. The hair care component of claim 11 , wherein the emulsion comprises from 0.5 wt % to 10 wt % of the hair care component.

13. A hair coloring system for use on hair, the hair coloring system comprising:

a colorant solution including a colorant and either an ammoniacal or a peroxide component, the colorant solution having a pH exceeding 9; and

the hair care component of claim 1 .

14. A hair coloring system of claim 13 , wherein the hair coloring system, when applied to the hair, imparts a first color intensity to the hair, the color intensity of the hair being a second color intensity at four weeks after the application of the hair color system to the hair, the second color intensity ranging from 5% less than the first color intensity to 2% greater than the first color intensity when measured using color intensity image analysis.

15. A hair coloring system of claim 13 , wherein the hair coloring system, when applied to the hair, imparts a first gray coverage to the hair, the gray coverage of the hair being a second gray coverage at four weeks after the application of the hair color system to the hair, the second gray coverage ranging from 20% less than the first gray coverage to 5% greater than the first gray coverage when measured using gray coverage image analysis.

16. A hair care component for use in a hair coloring system, the hair care component comprising:

a mixture resulting from blending

an alkaline aqueous solution;

an aminofunctional silicone polyether block copolymer emulsion hair colorant potentiator; and

a cationic sealant emulsion which, when in a hair care component, has a viscosity in the alkaline solution ranging from 300 centipoise to 2,500 centipoise.

17. The hair care component of claim 16 , further including a hempseedate film former.

18. A hair coloring system for use on hair, the hair coloring system comprising:

a colorant solution including an ammoniacal or a peroxide component and a colorant, the colorant solution having a pH exceeding 9; and

the hair care component of claim 16 .

19. The method of manufacture of a hair care component for use on hair, the method comprising:

blending an emulsion comprising a polysiloxane (A)-polyoxyalkylene (B) block copolymer, wherein the copolymer includes an aminofunctional silicone, and a cationic water-in-oil liquid dispersion comprising an alkylene, olefinically unsaturated (alkyl)amide to form a first mixture; and

blending the first mixture and water to form a second mixture.

20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising:

blending the second mixture and a hair colorant to form a third mixture; and

adjusting the pH of either the water, the second mixture, or the third mixture to a pH 9 or greater.
