Abstract
A method for the dyeing of keratin fibers, and in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, by applying to the fibers non-rinsed dye compositions containing guar gum as sole thickening agent.
Claims24
A method for dyeing of keratin fibers, said method comprising the steps of:
- applying to said keratin fibers at least one guar gum, said guar gum being a nonionic guar gum modified with at least one C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 hydroxyalkyl group or a guar gum modified with at least one cationic group,
- wherein said guar gum is applied in a cosmetic composition additionally containing at least one of a pigment and an indole precursor, further wherein said method includes no rinsing step, and further wherein said guar gum is the sole thickening agent in said composition;
- and
- allowing the fibers to dry or drying them with a hair-drier, without rinsing said fibers.

A method for dyeing keratin fibers comprising the steps of:
- mixing a dye composition with an oxidizing composition to form a mixture, said dye composition containing at least one oxidation dye precursor and at least one guar gum,
- wherein the guar gum is a nonionic guar gum modified with at least one C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 hydroxyalkyl group or a guar gum modified with at least one cationic group, further wherein said method includes no rinsing step, and further wherein said guar gum is the sole thickening agent in said composition;
- applying said mixture to said fibers;
- and
- allowing the fibers to dry or drying them with a hair-drier, without rinsing said fibers.
2 more elements
A method for dyeing keratin fibers, said method comprising the steps of:
- applying to said keratin fibers a cosmetic composition which contains 0.1 to 3% by weight, relative to the total weight of the cosmetic composition, of at least one guar gum, said guar gum being a guar gum modified with at least one cationic group,
- wherein said cosmetic composition additionally contains at least one of a direct dye, further wherein said method includes no rinsing step, and further wherein said guar gum is the sole thickening agent in said composition;
- and
- allowing the fibers to dry or drying them with a hair-drier, without rinsing said fibers.
