Abstract

Abstract The specification describes a hair setting method that employs a hair fixative composition containing an aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane as the effective component. The hair fixative composition may be formulated into aerosol, pump spray, lotion, cream or mousse type compositions for easy application to hair. The aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane improves the curl retention of the hair after setting and provides conditioning to the hair.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 161 words
A method of setting hair comprising the steps of: (A) rolling the hair around a shaping device, (B) moistening the hair with water, (C) applying to the hair an effective amount of a fixative composition consisting essentially of 0.1 to 40 percent by weight of aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane generally conforming to the formula ##STR7## wherein R denotes an alkylene radical of 3 to 5 carbon atoms; R' denotes a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; each R" denotes a monovalent radical selected independently from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, and phenyl; d has a value of 0, 1, 2, or 3; x+y has an average value from 50 to 1000 and the ratio of y to x has a value from 0.02 to 0.15; the aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane being carried in an aqueous emulsion or a physiologically acceptable organic solvent, and (D) drying the hair while the hair is rolled.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 161 words
A method of setting hair comprising the steps of: (A) rolling the hair around a shaping device, (B) moistening the hair with water, (C) applying to the hair an effective amount of a fixative composition consisting essentially of 0.1 to 40 percent by weight of aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane generally conforming to the formula ##STR7## wherein R denotes an alkylene radical of 3 to 5 carbon atoms; R' denotes a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical of 1 to 6 carbon atoms; each R" denotes a monovalent radical selected independently from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, and phenyl; d has a value of 0, 1, 2, or 3; x+y has an average value from 50 to 1000 and the ratio of y to x has a value from 0.02 to 0.15; the aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane being carried in an aqueous emulsion or a physiologically acceptable organic solvent, and (D) drying the hair while the hair is rolled.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein R" denotes a methyl radical.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method according to claim 2 wherein the aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane is carried in an organic solvent selected from the group consisting of chlorinated alkanes, alcohols and polyols.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method according to claim 3 wherein the organic solvent is 1,1,1-trichloroethane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
The method according to claim 2 wherein the aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane is carried in an aqueous emulsion.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
The method according to claim 5 wherein the fixative composition consists essentially of 0.2 to 10 percent by weight of aminoalkyl substituted polydiorganosiloxane.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method according to claim 6 wherein the ratio of y to x has a value from 0.04 to 0.08.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method according to claim 7 wherein R denotes a propylene or an alkyl substituted propylene radical, R' denotes a hydrogen atom, and d has a value of 1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method according to claim 8 wherein R denotes --CH 2 CHCH 3 CH 2 --.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method according to claim 7 wherein the fixative composition further contains a water soluble carboxylic or polycarboxylic acid in sufficient amount to provide a pH in the range of 6 to 8 for the hair fixative composition.
