Abstract
The invention relates to a hair treatment process comprising the application to the hair of a composition comprising at least one fatty substance using an aerosol device comprising:—a container containing the composition and one or more propellants, it being possible for the propellant(s) to be present in the composition or, in the container, separate from the composition,—a means for dispensing said composition comprising:—a body (3) that is open at its two opposite axial ends,—an engaging part (10) that is open at its two opposite axial ends, at least partially defining a dispensing orifice (12).
Claims18
Hair treatment process comprising the application to the hair of a composition comprising at least one fatty substance using an aerosol device comprising:
- a container containing the composition and one or more propellants, the propellant(s) possibly being present in the composition or, in the container, separate from the composition,
- a means for dispensing said composition comprising:
- a body (3) that is open at its two opposite axial ends,
- an engaging part (10) that is open at its two opposite axial ends, at least partially defining a dispensing orifice (12).
Process according to the preceding claim, characterized in that the fatty substances are chosen from C6-C16 hydrocarbons, hydrocarbons containing more than 16 carbon atoms, triglycerides, fatty alcohols, esters of fatty acids and/or of fatty alcohols other than triglycerides, and silicones, or mixtures thereof, preferably from mineral oils, liquid fatty alcohols, liquid esters of fatty acids and/or of fatty alcohols, and silicone oils, or mixtures thereof, and better still from mineral oils, liquid fatty alcohols, and liquid esters of fatty acids and/or of fatty alcohols, or mixtures thereof.
Process according to either of the preceding claims, characterized in that the composition comprises a fatty ester, which is preferably liquid, and at least one non-silicone oil.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the fatty substance(s) are liquid at room temperature and at atmospheric pressure.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, when the propellant(s) are present in the composition, the fatty substance(s) is or are present in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 80% by weight, better still from 2% to 60% by weight, even more preferentially from 5% to 30%, relative to the total weight of the composition.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the composition comprises one or more C2-C4 monoalcohols, the C2-C4 monoalcohol preferably being ethanol.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the propellant(s) is or are chosen from air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, dimethyl ether, C3-C5 alkanes, 1,1-difluoroethane and mixtures thereof, preferably chosen from C3-C5 alkanes and preferably n-butane, propane, isobutane and mixtures thereof.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, when the propellant(s) are present in the composition, the propellant(s) is or are present in an amount ranging from 10% to 90% by weight, even better still from 15% to 80% by weight and even more preferentially from 20% to 75% relative to the total weight of the composition.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the composition comprises at least one additive chosen from conditioning or fixing anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric or zwitterionic polymers, fragrances, dyes, protective screening agents, acids, bases, nacres and glitter flakes.
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the dispensing orifice (12) is defined between the engaging part (10) and the body (3).
Process according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the dispensing orifice (12) is annular and preferably has, in the circumferential direction, a constant width (I).
Device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the dispensing orifice (12) has axial symmetry, preferably rotational symmetry.
Process according to the preceding claim, characterized in that the number of dispensing orifices (12) is between, limits included, 2 and 80, preferably between 5 and 60.
Aerosol device comprising:
- a container containing:
- one or more propellants, and
- a composition comprising at least one fatty acid ester and/or fatty alcohol ester and at least one non-siliconized oil, it being possible for the propellant(s) to be present in the composition or, in the container, separate from the composition,
- a means for dispensing said composition comprising:
- a body (3) that is open at its two opposite axial ends,
- an engaging part (10) that is open at its two opposite axial ends, at least partially defining a dispensing orifice (12).
