The present disclosure relates to a liquid agent and/or hair dye for oxidative coloring of keratinous fibers with improved color performance and nourishing effect. In an embodiment, the agent comprises, in a hydrous cosmetic carrier: (a) a fatty acid which is liquid at 20&#xb0; C. and has about 16-22 carbon atoms in an amount of about 0.1-15 wt. %, (b) an alkanolamine as an alkalizing agent, selected from monoethanolamine, 2-amino-2-methylpropanol and triethanolamine, in an amount such that at least one part of the fatty acid is present as soap, (c) an oil component different from (a) in an amount of about 0.05-5 wt. %, (d) an alkylamidoamine in an amount of about 0.05-6 wt. %, and (e) an oxidation dye precursor. The agent does not contain any branched fatty alcohols having about 7 or more carbon atoms, and does not contain any fatty alcohols having a melting point of about 25&#xb0; C. or higher.

Liquid hair dye with optimized dying performance and care

Methods for styling, in particular for straightening, keratin fibers, in particular human hair, in which (i) a styling agent comprising carbocisteine and/or a salt thereof is applied to the keratin fibers and left there, (ii) the fibers, after a leave-in time, &#x2014;are not rinsed, &#x2014;are optionally dried, (iii) the fibers are mechanically deformed from exposure to heat, significantly minimize the negative consequences of styling and reduce in particular electrostatic charging and hydrophilization of the hair.

Hair straightening with carbocisteine

A composition for oxidative hair treatment, containing 50-96% by weight; 0.5-20% by weight hydrogen peroxide; at least one polyethylene glycol ether of a monoester of glycerol and a C12-C22 carboxylic acid having 110-500 ethylene oxide units in the molecule, according to formula (I), wherein the sum of the indices x+y+z stands for a number in the range of 110 to 500, and R stands for an alkyl functional group having 11 to 21 carbon atoms, which may be saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, wherein all stated quantities are based on the weight of the oxidation composition. Wherein the composition is suited for use as a developer for oxidative hair lighteners and/or hair dyes. The alkaline composition (A) is present as an oil-in-water emulsion and includes at least one alkalizing agent, and has a pH in the range of 8 to 11.5.

Thickening developer for oxidation dyes

A method for reshaping, in particular for straightening, keratin-containing fibers, in particular human hair, includes (i) applying a pretreatment agent including amino-functional silicone(s) with terminal hydroxyl group(s) onto the keratinic fibers and left there, (ii) optionally drying fibers, (iii) treating the fibers in the moist or dried state with a reshaping agent which, relative to the weight of the reshaping agent, includes 0.05 to 20 wt. % of guanidine and/or guanidinium salt(s), (iv) optionally straightening the fibers with a comb or a brush during the reshaping treatment, (v) shampooing the fibers with a shampoo which has a pH of 2.5 to 6.5, followed by rinsing and neutralizing the fibers, and (vi) optionally subsequently additionally mechanically deforming the fibers with exposure to heat. The methods distinctly minimizes the negative consequences of reshaping, in particular electrostatic charging and hydrophilization of the hair.

Method for chemical smoothing of human hairs

The specification describes an agent for coloring keratinic fibers. The agent includes, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one oxidation dye precursor, a precursor of a nature-analogous dye, a substantive dye, or combinations thereof. The agent also includes a carrier base combination. The carrier base combination includes at least one fatty substance of formula (I), in which R and R' in each case mutually independently denote a saturated or unsaturated C-Calkyl chain; at least one nonionic surfactant of formula (II),R1-O-[G](II) in which R1 denotes a saturated or unsaturated C-Calkyl chain, G denotes a sugar residue with 5 or 6 carbon atoms and p denotes a number from 1 to 10; and at least one cationic polymer, at least one amphoteric polymer, or combinations thereof.
