Claims10
An aqueous composition for the treatment of hair and scalp comprising:
- ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt, gellan gum, dl-panthenol, a preservative, biotin, tocopherol nicotinate .gamma.-linolenic acid, menthol, tocopherol acetate, allantoin acetyl methionine, a solubilizer, polyquaternium-39, folic acid, a polyamino sugar condensate and diluent ingredients, wherein the percent by weight are in the ranges of:
- water 73%-89%, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt 0.01%-0.1%, gellan gum 0.1%-1%, dl-panthenol 0.1%-1.5% preservative 0.2%-15% biotin 0.01%-1%, tocopherol nicotinate 0.1%-1.5%, .gamma.linolenic acid 0.1%-1%, menthol 0.1%-1%, tocopheral acetate 0.01%-5%, allantoin acetyl methionine 0.1%-1%, solubilizer 0.1%-4%, polyquaternium-39 0.1%-3% polyamino sugar condensate 0.1%-0.25% and diluent ingredients to add to 100%.
The method of preparing an aqueous composition for the treatment of hair and scalp comprising the steps of:
- heating deionized water 70%-80% in a first container to approximately 90.degree. C. for approximately 30 min., cooling to approximately 75.degree. C. and adding ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt 0.01%-0.1%, stirring rapidly while slowly adding gellan gum 0.1%-1%, mixing with moderate stirring for approximately 15-20 min. at 75.degree. C.;
- with moderate stirring at 75.degree. C., adding sequentially dl-panthenol 0.1%-1.5%, a preservative 0.2%-1.5% and biotin 0.01%-1% and continuing stirring for approximately 10-20 min., avoiding the incorporation of air into the solution;
- in a separate second container, placing tocopherol nicotinate 0.1%-1.5%, .gamma.-linolenic acid 0.1%-1% menthol 0.1%-1%, tocopheral acetate 0.01%-0.5%, allantoin acetyl methionine 0.1%-1%, a solubilizer 0.1%-5% and diluent ingredients 0.8%-15%, heating to approximately 70.degree. C.-75.degree. C. with stirring, slowly adding deionized water 0.1%-5% heated to approximately 75.degree. C. while stirring moderately until homogeneous;
- adding the components from the second container to the first container with moderate stirring while maintaining the temperature at approximately 75.degree. C.;
- adding polyquaternium-39 0.1%-3% to the first container at approximately 75.degree. C. with moderate stirring and mixing for approximately 10-15 min.;
- cooling the contents of the first container to approximately 60.degree. C., adding folic acid 0.1%-0.5% and stirring for approximately 15 min., adjusting to a pH of approximately 6.4 to 7.0 and cooling to approximately 45.degree. C.;
- mixing a polyamino sugar condensate 0.1%-0.25% with distilled water 2%-4% and adding the mix to the contents in the first container and stirring moderately for approximately 15 minutes;
- cooling the contents of the first container to approximately 40.degree. C. and adding, in sequence with moderate stirring, a hydrolyzed protein 0.1%-3% and a fragrance 0.01%-1%, stirring with moderate agitation for approximately 15 minutes;
- wherein all the ranges are percent by weight and
- cooling to room temperature and adjusting to a pH of approximately 6.4 to 7.0.
