Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for gradually coloring hair comprising the steps of: a) applying an air oxidation haircolor composition to hair; b) removing the air oxidation haircolor composition from the hair directly after application; and c) repeating a set comprising the steps a) and b) in multiple spaced intervals. The air oxidation haircolor composition can include: 1) at least one primary oxidation dye intermediate; 2) at least one aromatic triol; and 3) water.
Claims22
A method for gradually coloring hair comprising the steps of:
- a) applying an air oxidation haircolor composition to hair;
- b) removing the air oxidation haircolor composition from the hair directly after application;
- and
- c) repeating a set comprising the steps a) and b) in multiple spaced intervals,
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor composition comprises:
- 1) at least one primary oxidation dye intermediate;
- 2) at least one aromatic triol;
- and
- 3) water.
A method for simultaneously grooming and gradually coloring hair comprising the steps of:
- a) applying an air oxidation haircolor composition to hair;
- and
- b) removing the air oxidation haircolor composition from the hair directly after application,
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor composition is an air oxidation haircolor grooming composition comprising:
- 1) at least one primary oxidation dye intermediate, where a primary oxidation dye intermediate content is about 0.01% to about 5% weight by weight;
- 2) at least one aromatic triol, where an aromatic triol content is about 0.01% to about 5% weight by weight;
- 3) water, where a water content is about 40% to about 98% weight by weight;
- and
- 4) a grooming agent selected from the group consisting of:
- at least one cleansing surfactant, where a cleansing surfactant content is greater than 5% to about 50% weight by weight;
- at least one conditioning agent, where a conditioning agent content is about 0.1% to about 15% weight by weight;
- and any combination thereof.
An air oxidation haircolor shampoo composition comprising:
- 1) at least one primary oxidation dye intermediate, where a primary oxidation dye intermediate content is about 0.1% to about 3% weight by weight;
- 2) at least one aromatic triol, where an aromatic triol content is about 0.1% to about 3% weight by weight;
- 3) water, where a water content is about 40% to about 98% weight by weight;
- and
- 4) at least one cleansing surfactant, where a cleansing surfactant content is greater than 5% to about 50% weight by weight;
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor shampoo composition cleanses hair;
- and
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor shampoo composition gradually colors hair with repeated use.
An air oxidation haircolor conditioner composition comprising:
- 1) at least one primary oxidation dye intermediate, where a primary oxidation dye intermediate content is about 0.1% to about 3% weight by weight;
- 2) at least one aromatic triol, where an aromatic triol content is about 0.1% to about 3% weight by weight;
- 3) water, where a water content is about 40% to about 98% weight by weight;
- and
- 4) at least one conditioning agent, where a conditioning agent content is about 0.1% to about 15% weight by weight;
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor conditioner composition conditions the hair;
- and
- wherein the air oxidation haircolor conditioner composition gradually colors hair with repeated use.
