Method of improved volume and combability using personal care composition comprising pre-emulsified formulation

Abstract

In an embodiment, the present invention is directed a method of achieving hair volume and combability comprising applying to hair a personal care composition comprising from about 0.25% to about 80% of a pre-emulsified emulsion comprising from about 0.005% to about 80% of one or more materials selected from the group comprising metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, sucrose polyesters, fatty esters with a molecular weight greater than or equal to 1500 and mixtures thereof or, by weight of said hair care composition; wherein an emulsifier is selected from the group consisting of anionic, non-ionic, cationic, amphoteric and mixtures thereof wherein the average particle size of the pre-emulsified emulsion is from about 20 nanometers to 20 microns; from about 5% to about 50% of one or more anionic surfactants, by weight of said hair care composition; from about 5% to about 40% of a gel matrix comprising: (i) from 0.1% to 30% of one or more fatty alcohols, by weight of the gel matrix; (ii) from 0.1% to 15% of one or more surfactants, by weight of the gel matrix; and (iii) from 20% to 95% of an aqueous carrier, by weight of the gel matrix; d) at least about 20% of an aqueous carrier, by weight of said hair care composition; wherein the hair has a dry static friction index in the range of about 1.05 - 3 and a dry and wet combing index of larger than or equal to about 1.5.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of improving volume and combability using a shampoo composition comprising a gel base and a pre-emulsified emulsion of a conditioner or conditioner mixture, an anionic surfactant and an aqueous carrier, The conditioning agent is selected from the group comprising metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, sucrose polyesters, fatty acid esters, and mixtures thereof. Background technique [0002] Human hair and skin become soiled due to their contact with the surrounding environment and the secretion of sebum from the scalp. Dirty hair and skin can give it a dirty look and look unsightly. Shampooing cleanses the hair by removing excess dirt and sebum. However, shampooing leaves the hair in a damp, tangled and generally unmanageable condition. Once the hair dries, it is often left in a dry, tangled, dull or frizzy state due to the removal of the hair's natural oils. Various methods of alleviating these post-shamp...
