Method of improved volume and combability using personal care composition comprising a pre-emulsified formulation

Abstract

In an embodiment, the present invention is directed a method of achieving hair volume and combability comprising applying to hair a personal care composition comprising from about 0.25% to about 80% of a pre-emulsified emulsion comprising from about 0.005% to about 80% of one or more materials selected from the group comprising metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, sucrose polyesters, fatty esters with a molecular weight greater than or equal to 1500 and mixtures thereof or, by weight of said hair care composition; wherein an emulsifier is selected from the group consisting of anionic, non-ionic, cationic, amphoteric and mixtures thereof wherein the average particle size of the pre-emulsified emulsion is from about 20 nanometers to 20 microns; from about 5% to about 50% of one or more anionic surfactants, by weight of said hair care composition; from about 5% to about 40% of a gel matrix comprising: (i) from 0.1% to 30% of one or more fatty alcohols, by weight of the gel matrix; (ii) from 0.1% to 15% of one or more surfactants, by weight of the gel matrix; and (iii) from 20% to 95% of an aqueous carrier, by weight of the gel matrix; d) at least about 20% of an aqueous carrier, by weight of said hair care composition; wherein the hair has a dry static friction index in the range of about 1.05-3 and a dry and wet combing index of larger than or equal to about 1.5.
