US Patent:

49710800, Nov 20, 1990

Filed:

Aug 17, 1987

Appl. No.:

7/086157

Inventors:

Arnold Rubinstein - Norwalk CT
Frances E. Erskine - Fairfield CT
Donna W. Bulakites - Fairfield CT
Ernest J. Klemm - Westport CT

Assignee:

Shiseido Co. Ltd. - Tokyo

International Classification:

A61K 709
A61K 711

US Classification:

132202

Abstract:

By incorporating corn syrup or glucose syrup into a conventional permanent hair waving solution, a unique permanent waving and hair conditioning composition is achieved which conditions the hair while simultaneously permanently waving the hair, in a single, one-step operation. In addition, the head of hair is permanently waved with a substantially lower level of damage occurring to the hair fibers than is otherwise encountered. Furthermore, by varying the relative quantity of corn syrup to the quantity of permanent wave solution, a variety of compositions are achieved for use on all different hair textures and levels of hair damage. However, in each instance, an effective amount of the carbohydrate mixture must be employed in order to ensure that the desired low level of damage to the hair is achieved.

Assignee:

Zotos International, Inc. - Darien CT

International Classification:

A45D 700

US Classification:

132 7

Abstract:

By providing a single wrapping composition capable of wetting and conditioning unbleached hair fibers while simultaneously protecting, equalizing and conditioning bleached hair fiber so that both the bleached and unbleached hair fibers are capable of responsive interaction with a waving or processing lotion, a unique permanent waving system is achieved which allows a head of hair having both bleached and unbleached hair fiber inseparably mixed, to be permanently waved in a single, uniform application and treatment. In order to assure that the bleached hair fibers will be capable of reacting with the waving or processing lotion, the wrapping composition should comprise an aqueous solution incorporating a hair substantive compound containing a lipoidal alkyl chain having ten or more carbon atoms and a disulfide derivative of a mercaptan with a substituent group. Preferably, the respective chemical compounds are those containing a quaternary ammonium group and a dithio derivation of a thioglycolate. In the preferred embodiment, a special processing composition, specifically formulated for reactive interaction with the wrapping composition, is employed.

Appl. No.:

6/527039

Inventors:

Walter W. Edman - Westport CT

Assignee:

Zotos International Inc. - Stamford CT

International Classification:

A45D 700
A45D 1900

US Classification:

132 7

Abstract:

By providing high absorbent end wraps staturated with a disulfide, the action of the reducing agent on the porous ends of the hair is controlled, typical overprocessing of the hair ends is eliminated, and a uniform permanently waved head of hair is obtained. Preferably the disulfide saturated into the end wraps is the disulfide of the mercaptan used in the permanent waving lotion.

Appl. No.:

6/929723

Inventors:

Walter W. Edman - Westport CT
Ernest J. Klemm - Westport CT

Assignee:

Zotos International, Inc. - Darien CT

International Classification:

A61K 709

US Classification:

424 72

Abstract:

A permanent waving composition which imparts to the hair a substantially increased curl retention, as well as substantially improved hair manageability and improved hair feel and appearance, is attained by combining strong hydrogen bonding amino acids with a water soluble or emulsifiable silicone-based compound as additives to the basic permanent wave ingredients. By employing these two additives, a synergistic effect is achieved, with the resulting permanently waved head of hair possessing substantially increased curl retention, ease of manageability, and substantially improved feel and appearance. Preferably, the strong hydrogen bonding amino acids are formed from hydrolyzed silk protein.
