The present invention relates to the use of fully esterified di- or oligosaccharide polyesters in hair styling products selected from hair styling waxes, hair styling creams, hair styling foam wax products, and hair styling spray wax products. Preferred saccharide polyesters are octaesters of sucrose and C8 to C30 fatty acids such as behenic acid and fatty acids derived from cotton seed oil.

Use of di-or oligosaccharide polyester in hair styling products

The present invention relates to hair styling creams comprising a crosslinked silicone polymer; an alkoxylated compound selected from polyethylenoxides and polyalkoxylated silicone compounds; emulsifier; a fatty phase; and an aqueous phase. The cream can be transferred into rope-, thread-, or fiber-like structures when distributed in the hands. It gives a powdery feel after drying and improves stability and gloss of hair.
