Abstract
Provided are compositions and methods that are useful for personal care compositions. The compositions comprise (a) a cationic polymer comprising polymerized units derived from (i) 30 to 80 weight % of cationic monomers, (ii) 10 to 65 weight % of (meth)acrylamide monomers, and (iii) 0 to 30 weight % of polar non-ionic derivatives of acrylic monomers, and (b) silicone. Also provided are methods of treating hair with such compositions.
