Abstract
An essentially anhydrous hair conditioning composition comprising: (a) one or more microporous materials each of which has an average pore size larger than the critical diameter of a water molecule; (b) carrier molecules or molecular aggregates that have critical diameters larger than the largest average pore size of the microporous materials; and (c) conditioner molecules or molecular aggregates that have critical diameters larger than the largest average pore size of the microporous materials. The invention also relates to a method for conditioning hair with warming which comprises administering to the hair, with water, the hair conditioner compositions of the invention.
