Composition for fixing hair based on lignin or lignin derivatives as well as dihydroxypropyl lignin

Abstract

The aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous/alcoholic composition for fixing hair includes from 1.0 to 10 percent by weight of a sulfur-free lignin, which can be hydroxypropyl lignin, hydroxybutyl lignin, dihydroxypropyl lignin and/or mixtures thereof; from 1 to 15% by weight of a film-forming polymer; and a solvent including water, an alcohol having one to four carbon atoms and/or mixtures thereof. It can be in the form of an aerosol hair spray, a non-aerosol hair spray, a non-aerosol foam or a non-aerosol hair lacquer. The composition can also include 2 to 80 percent by weight of a propellant.
