Process for colouring hair keratin fibers, comprising the application of a composition A and a composition B to said hair keratin fibers, in which:
- composition A comprises at least one (poly)carbodiimide compound chosen from the compounds of formula (II) below:
- in which:
- X1 and X2 independently represent an oxygen atom;
- R1 and R2 are independently chosen from dialkylamino alcohols, alkyl esters of hydroxycarboxylic acid and monoalkyl ethers of (poly)alkylene glycol, in which a hydroxyl group has been removed, and mixtures thereof;
- n and z denote an integer ranging from 1 to 20, with n+z≥2 and w is equal to 1;
- L1 is chosen from a C1-C18 divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon-based radical, a C3-C15 cycloalkylene radical, a C3-C12 heterocycloalkylene group or a C6-C14 arylene group, and mixtures thereof;
- E independently represents a group chosen from:
- —O—R3—O—;
- —S—R4—S—;
- and —R5—N(R6)—R4—N(R6)—R5—;
- in which R3 and R4 are independently chosen from a C6-C14 arylene radical, a C3-C12 cycloalkylene radical, a linear or branched C1-C18 alkylene radical, optionally interrupted with one or more heteroatoms, and mixtures thereof;
- R5 independently represents a covalent bond or a saturated divalent hydrocarbon-based radical, optionally interrupted with one or more heteroatoms;
- and when R5 is not a covalent bond, R5 is chosen from a C6-C14 arylene radical, a C3-C12 cycloalkylene radical, a linear or branched C1-C18 alkylene radical, optionally interrupted with one or more heteroatoms, and mixtures thereof;
- and
- R6 is chosen from a C6-C14 arylene radical, a C3-C12 cycloalkylene radical, a linear or branched C1-C18 alkylene radical, optionally interrupted with one or more heteroatoms, and mixtures thereof;
- and
- composition B comprises:
- at least one associative polymer;
- at least one compound, different from the at least one associative polymer, containing at least one carboxylic acid group;
- and
- at least one compound containing at least one hydroxyl function;
- composition A and/or composition B comprising at least one colouring agent chosen from pigments, direct dyes and mixtures thereof, and
- in which composition A and composition B are applied simultaneously or sequentially to the hair keratin fibers.
