A surface active mixture comprising: (A) from about 1 to about 50% by weight of an anionic surfactant having one or two lipophilic groups and having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms and a polar group selected from the group consisting of carboxylate, sulfate and sulfonate groups; (B) from about 0.5 to about 15% by weight of an alkyl glycoside of the formula R(G).sub.x, wherein R is a linear saturated alkyl radical having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms and (G).sub.x is a glycoside or oligoglycoside unit with a degree of oligomerization x of 1 to 10; (C) from about 0.1 to about 7% by weight of a nitrogen-containing copolymer having a molecular weight of from about 15,000 to about 1,500,000 wherein said copolymer is comprised of: (i) from about 99.5 to about 45 mole-% of units derived from vinyl pyrrolidone, (ii) from at 0.5 to about 50 mole-% of units derived from a monomer corresponding to formula (I):

Clear surface-active mixtures containing anionic surfactant, APG, and

A composition and process for coloring keratin-containing fibers wherein the composition comprises: (a) an alkyl glycoside of the formula (I):

Coloring of keratin-containing fibers with preparations which contain

Hair treatment compositions containing a combination of a zwitterionic polymer and a derivative of 2-pyrrolidone. Such preparations improve the condition of the hair, in particular the moisture retention and curl retention capability after cleaning or cosmetic treatment. In addition, the preparations are better tolerated by the skin.

Hair treatment prepartation

The invention concerns the use of combinations of active substances, consisting of (a) a cationic derivative of a protein hydrolyzate and (b) a carbohydrate and/or (c) a cationic, anionic or ampholytic polymer, in hair-cleaning and hair-care agents, thus improving the qualities of the hair, in particular its brittleness and its ease of combing when dry.

Cosmetic preparations for the hair

Acidic, aqueous hair treatment emulsions, in which an active ingredient combination of phospholipids of natural origin and inorganic and/or organic acids is used, improve the wet and dry combability and reduce the electrostatic charging of hair.
