Abstract
A mild, non-irriatating hair conditioning shampoo is disclosed comprising an aqueous dispersion of a water-insoluble lipid phase, an anionic hair cleansing surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant present at a level of at least about 0.75 parts by weight per part by weight of said anionic surfactant, at least one hair conditioning, film forming, polycationic polymer soluble in the aqueous dispersion and 0-6% by weight, based on the weight of the shampoo, of a water-insoluble, non-volatile hair conditioning silicone, the water-insoluble lipid phase comprising at least one lipid soluble, emulsifiable, monocationic, quaternary ammonium compound or amine solubilized in a water-insoluble long chain lipid compound, the weight ratio of monocationic compound to the lipid compound in the lipid phase being in the range of from about 5:1 to about 1:10 and the molar ratio of anionic surfactant to water-insoluble cationic compound is greater than 2:1. The shampoo having no silicone possesses a high degree of style control properties. The shampoo containing silicone has a high degree of hair conditioning properties.
