Description

WO 99/38x76 PCT/US99102311 HAIR CURL RETENTION AND HAIR FEEL
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to hair styling shampoo compositions which provide improved styling performance and improved hair feel. More particularly, the present invention relates to styling shampoo compositions which contain a detersive surfactant component and a hair styling polymer. The compositions, once applied to hair, exhibit a Hair Feel Index (HFI) of at least 0.65 and a Curl Retention Value (CRV) of at least 70.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Many hair shampoo compositions provide acceptable cleaning but provide little or no styling benefiu, e.g. body, hold, stiffness. To realize such benefits, separate cleaning and styling products are often used.
Recently, hair shampoo compositions have been developed which can provide cleaning and styling performance from a single product. Many of these products contain styling polymers in a compatible shampoo base. Three different types of styling polymers are used to deliver styling performance:
dispersible polymers, latex polymers, and hydrophobic styling polymers dispersed in a hydrophobic volatile carrier.
The first type of styling polymer is a polymer which can be dispersed in the aqueous shampoo matrix. This dispersible styling polymer may form a complex, or coacervate phase, with the detersive surfactant component in the shampoo or form a coacervate phase upon dilution.
Upon dilution, the coacervate phase deposits on the hair. As the hair dries, the dispersible styling polymer entrapped in the coacervate delivers style achievement and style retention performance to the hair. Unfortunately, these dispersible styling polymers are very similar, if not identical, to the conditioning polymers used in 2-in-1 shampoo applications. As a result, when sufficient quantities are used to deliver styling performance, the resulting hair feel profile is unacceptable. The dispersible styling polymers have no inherent adhesive properties, consequently so much coacervate phase needs to be deposited on the hair to give styling performance that, after repeated usage, the hair is left overconditioned, coated, and dirty feeling.
The second type of styling polymer is a latex polymer. The latex polymer is in the form of a colloidal suspension of polymer particles in the aqueous shampoo matrix. In order to achieve adhesion between hair fibers, the glass transition temperature, or Tg, of the latex styling polymer must be significantly below room temperature. As a result, the latex styling polymers that give good styling performance have unacceptable hair feel which can be characterized as sticky and coated.
The third type of styling polymer is an adhesive, hydrophobic styling polymer.
To prepare a styling shampoo with a hydrophobic styling polymer, the styling polymer is fast dissolved in a volatile, water-insoluble carrier and then incorporated into the shampoo base. The water insoluble carrier thereafter

2 helps disperse the hydrophobic styling polymer in the shampoo composition, and also helps enhance spreading of the hydrophobic styling polymer onto hair such that the polymer sets and forms welds between hair fibers. The enhanced spreading of the styling polymer onto the hair results in improved styling performance from the shampoo composition.
One method for further improving styling polymer deposition from a shampoo, utilizing either type of styling polymer, involves the use of cationic deposition polymers. These cationic deposition polymers improve the deposition efficiency of the styling polymers, which in turn also improves styling performance. The improved deposition from the cationic polymer can also allow for reduction of the amount of styling polymer formulated into the shampoo composition, thus reducing raw material costs.
The problem has been that excessive amounts of such deposition polymers can result in undesirably coated or oily wet hair feel, and can cause the hair when dry to feel dirty and have less body, less fullness.
Therefore, a need exists for styling shampoo compositions which provide good style achievement and style retention without the disadvantages of overconditioning, coated, or dirty feeling compositions.
Surprisingly, the present invention provides hair styling shampoo compositions having good styling performance without being overconditioning, coated, or dirty feeling. The resulting hair styles obtained from using these compositions hold up well under the common stress conditions.
Importantly, such compositions provide the benefit of allowing the user to achieve the desired style without separate style achievement products, such as mousses or gels, or to supplement their current style achievement products to more easily achieve the desired style. The styling compositions of the present invention leave the hair both feeling and looking natural. Also, these produce do not have the disadvantage of causing the hair to quickly resoil.
It has been found in the present invention that compositions having certain properties, as defined by a Hair Feel Index (HFI) and a Curl Retention Value (CRV), are particularly useful for providing strong styling performance in combination with good hair feel. 'The hair styling compositions, when evaluated while the hair is still wet, exhibit a Hair Feel Index (HFI) of at least 0.65 and a Curl Retention Value (CRV) of at least 70. The compositions of the present invention provide the recited benefits by utilizing a hair styling polymer.
In view of the foregoing, it is therefore an object of this invention to provide styling shampoo compositions that provide good styling performance without unacceptable hair feel. It is a further object of this invention is to provide styling shampoo compositions containing a detersive surfactant component in combination with a styling polymer. It is another object of this invention to provide methods for evaluating styling performance and hair feel.

Solubility of the surfactant will depend upon the particular anionic detersive surfactants and cations chosen.

4 Preferably, R has from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms, more preferably from about I 0 to about 16 carbon atoms, even vmore preferably from about I2 to about 14 carbon atoms, in both the alkyl and alkyl ether sulfates. The alkyl ether sulfates are typically made as condensation products of ethylene oxide and monohydric alcohols having from about 8 to about 24 carbon atoms. The alcohols can be synthetic or they can be derived from fats, e.g., coconut oil, palm kernel oil, tallow.
Lauryl alcohol and straight chain alcohols derived from coconut oil or palm kernel oil are preferred. Such alcohols are reacted with between about 0 and about 10, preferably from about 2 to about 5, more preferably about 3, molar proportions of ethylene oxide, and the resulting mixture of molecular species having, for example, an average of 3 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol, is sulfated and neutralized.
Specific non limiting examples of alkyd ether sulfates which may be used in the shampoo compositions of the present invention include sodium and ammonium salts of coconut alkyl triethylene glycol ether sulfate, tallow alkyl triethylene glycol ether sulfate, and tallow alkyl hexaoxyethylene sulfate.
Highly preferred alkyl ether sulfates are those comprising a mixture of individual compounds, wherein the compounds in the mixture have an average alkyl chain length of from about 10 to about 16 carbon atoms and an average degree of ethoxylation of from about 1 to about 4 moles of ethylene oxide.

In this c6ntext, the term "olefin sulfonates" refers to compounds which can be produced by the sulfonation of alpha-olefins by means of uncomplexed sulfur trioxide, followed by neutralization of the acid reaction mixture in conditions such that any sulfones which have been formed in the reaction are hydrolyzed to give the corresponding hydroxy-alkanesulfonates. The sulfur trioxide can be liquid or gaseous, and is usually, but not necessarily, diluted by inert diluents, for example by liquid SO~, chlorinated hydrocarbons, etc., when used in the liquid form, or by air, nitrogen, gaseous 502, etc., when used in the gaseous form. The alpha-olefins from which the olefin sulfonates are derived are mono-olefins having from about 10 to about 24 carbon atoms, preferably from about 12 to about 16 carbon atoms.
Preferably, they are straight chain olefins. In addition to the true alkene sulfonates and a proportion of hydroxy-alkanesulfonates, the olefin sulfonates can contain minor amounts of other materials, such as alkene disulfonates depending upon the reaction conditions, proportion of reactants, the nature of the starting olefins and impurities in the olefin stock and side reactions during the suifonation process.

Such polymers can be made by conventional or otherwise known polymerization techniques well known in the art, an example of which includes free radical polymerization.
Examples of suitable oreanic and silicone grafted polymers for use in the shampoo composition of the present invention are described in greater detail hereinafter.

Examples of latex polymers are disclosed in, for example, U.S. Patent 4,710,374.
1. Organic styling polymer The hair styling polymers suitable for use in the shampoo composition of the present invention include organic hair styling polymers well known in the art. The organic styling polymers may be homopolvmers, copolymers, terpolymers or other higher polymers, but must comprise one or more polymerizable hydrophobic monomers to thus render the resulting styling polymer hydrophobic and water-insoluble as defined herein. The styling polymers may therefore further comprise other water soluble, hydrophillic monomers provided that the resulting styling polymers have the requisite hydrophobicity and water insolubility.
As used herein, the term "hydrophobic monomer" refers to polymerizable organic monomers that can form with like monomers a water-insoluble homopolvmer, and the term "hydrophilic monomer" refers to polvmerizable organic monomers that can form with like monomers a water-soluble homopolymer.
The organic styling polymers preferably have a weight average molecular weight of at least about 20,000, preferably greater than about 25,000, more preferably greater than about 30,000, most preferably greater than about 35,000. There is no upper limit for molecular weight except that which limits applicability of the invention for practical reasons, such a_s processing, aesthetic characteristics, fotTrtulateabiliry; etc. In general, the weight average molecular weight will be less than about 10,000.000, more generally less than about 5,000,000, and typically less than about 2.000,000. Preferably, the weight average molecular weight will be between about 20.000 and about 2,000,000, more preferably between about 30,000 and about 1,000,000, and most preferably between about 40,000 and about 500.000.
The organic styling polymers also preferably have a glass transition temperature (Tg) or crystalline melting point (Tm) of at least about -20°C, preferably from about 20°C to about 80°C, more preferably from about 20°C to about 60°C. Styling polymers having these Tg or Tm values form styling films on hair that are not unduly sticky or tacky to the touch. As used herein, the abbreviation "Tg" refers to the glass transition temperature of the backbone of the polymer, and the abbreviation "Tm" refers to the

8 crystalline melting point of the backbone, if such a transition exists for a given polymer. Preferably, both the Tg and the Tm, if any, are within the ranges recited hereinabove.
The organic styling polymers are carbon chains derived from polymerization of hydrophobic monomers such as ethylenically unsaturated monomers, cellulosic chains or other carbohydrate-derived polymeric chains. The backbone may comprise ether groups, ester groups, amide groups, urethanes, combinations thereof, and the like.
The organic styling polymers may further comprise one or more hydrophilic monomers in combination with the hydrophobic monomers described herein, provided that the resulting styling polymer has the requisite hydrophobic character and water-insolubility. Suitable hydrophilic monomers include, but are not limited to, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, N,N-dimethylacrylamide, dimethyl aminoethyl methacrylate, quaternized dimethylaminoethyi methacrylate, methacrylamide, N-t-butyl acrylamide, malefic acid, malefic anhydride and its half esters, crotonic acid, itaconic acid, acrylamide, acrylate alcohols, hydroxyethyi methacrylate, diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride, vinyl ethers (such as methyl vinyl ether), maleimides, vinyl pyridine, vinyl imidazole, other polar vinyl heterocyciics, styrene suifonate, allyl alcohol, vinyl alcohol (such as that produced by the hydrolysis of vinyl acetate after polymerization), salts of any acids and amines listed above, and mixtures thereof. Preferred hydrophillic monomers include acrylic acid, N,N-dimethyl acrylamide, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, quaternized dimethyl aminoethyi methacrylate, vinyl pyrrolidone, salts of acids and amines listed above, and combinations thereof.
Suitable hydrophobic monomers for use in the organic styling polymer include, but are not limited to, acrylic or methacrylic acid esters of C1-Clg alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, methoxy ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 1-pentanol, 2-pentanol, 3-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-butanol, 1-methyl-I-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-methyl-1-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-pentanol, 3-methyl-1-pentanol, t-butanol{2-methyl-2-propanol), cyclohexanol, neodecanol, 2-ethyl-1-butanol, 3-heptanol, benzyl alcohol, 2-octanol, 6-methyl-1-heptanol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexanol, 3,5,5-tri methyl-1-hexanol, 1-decanol, l-dodecanol, 1-hexadecanol, 1-octa decanol, and the like, the alcohols having from about 1 to about 18 carbon atoms, preferably from about 1 to about 12 carbon atoms;
styrene; polystyrene macromer; vinyl acetate; vinyl chloride; vinylidene chloride; vinyl propionate; alpha-methylstyrene; t-butylstyrene; butadiene; cyclohexadiene; ethylene; propylene;

Preferred hydrophobic monomers include n-butyl methacryiate, isobutyl methacrylate, t-butyl acrylate, t-butyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, methyl metltacrylate, vinyl acetate, and mixtures thereof, more preferably t-butyl acrylate, t-butyl methacrylate, or combinations thereof. Surprisingly, it has been found that conventional styling polymers consisting of copolymers of vinyl pyrrolidone and vinyl acetate do not exhibit the curl retention benefits required of the present invention.
The styling polymers for use in the shampoo composition preferably comprise from about 20% to 100%, more preferably from about 50% to about 100%, even more preferably from about 60% to about

9 100%, by weight of the hydrophobic monomers, and may funher comprise from zero to about 80% by weight of hydrophilic monomers. The panicular selection and combination of monomers for incorporation into the styling polymer will help determine its formulational properties. By appropriate selection and combination of, for example, hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, the styling polymer can be optimized for physical and chemical compatibility with the selected styling polymer solvent described hereinafter and other components of the shampoo composition. The selected monomer composition of the organic styling polymer must, however, render the styling polymer water-insoluble but soluble in the selected styling polymer solvent described hereinafter. In this context, the organic styling polymer is soluble in the styling polymer solvent if the organic polymer is solubilized in the solvent at 25°
C at the polymer and solvent concentrations of the shampoo formulation selected. However, a solution of the organic styling polymer and styling polymer solvent may be heated to speed up solubility of the styling polymer in the styling polymer solvent. Such styling polymer and solvent formulation, including the selection of monomers for use in the styling polymer, to achieve the desired solubility is well within the skill of one in the art.
Examples of preferred organic styling polymers include r-butyl acrylatel2-ethylhexyl acrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/S, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about SO/S0; t-butyl acrylate/2-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weightlweight ratio of monomers of about 95/S, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about 50/50; r-butyl methacrylate/2-ethylhexyl actylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about 50/50; r-butyl methacrylate/2-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weightlweight ratio of monomers of about 9515, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70130, about 60/40, and about SO/S0; r-butyl ethacrylate/2-ethylhexyf methacrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and mixtures thereof.
Especially preferred polymers are t-butyl acrylate/Z-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 9S/S, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about SO/S0; t-butyl methacrylate/2-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/S, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70130, about 60140, and about SO/S0; and mixtures thereof.

11. Silicone-crafted stvlin~ polymer Other suitable styling polymers for use in the shampoo composition of the present invention are silicone-grafted hair styling resins. These polymers may be used alone or in combination with the organic

10 styling polymers described hereinbefore. Many such polymers suitable for use in the shampoo composition herein are known in the art. These polymers are characterized by polysiloxane moieties covalently bonded to and pendant from an uncross-linked polymeric carbon-based backbone.
The backbone of the silicone-grafted polymer is preferably a carbon chain derived from polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, but can also be cellulosic chains or other carbohydrate-derived polymeric chains to which polysiloxane moieties are pendant. The backbone can also include ether groups, ester groups, amide groups, urethane groups and the like. The poiysiloxane moieties can be substituted on the polymer or can be made by co-polymerization of polysiloxaj~e-containing polymerizable monomers (e.g. ethylenically unsaturated monomers, ethers, andlor epoxid. :) with non-polysiloxane-containing polymerizable monomers. The silicone-grafted styling polymers preferably have a weight average molecular weight of at least about 10,000, preferably greater than about 20,000, more preferably greater than about 35,000, most preferably greater than about 50,000. The weight average molecular weight of the silicone-grafted styling polymer is preferably less than 300,000, more preferably less than about 250,000, and most preferably less than about 150,000.
The silicone-grafted styling polymers for use in the shampoo composition comprise "silicone-containing" (or "polysiloxane-containing") monomers, which form the silicone macromer pendant from the backbone, and non-silicone-containing monomers, which form the organic backbone of the polymer.
Preferred silicone-grafted polymers comprise an organic backbone, preferably a carbon backbone derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers, such as a vinyl polymeric backbone, and a polysiloxane macromer (especially preferred are polydialkylsiloxane, most preferably polydimethylsiloxane) grafted to the backbone. As used hereinafter, the term "PDMS" refers to polydimethylsiloxane. The polysiloxane macromer should have a weight average molecular weight of at least about 500, preferably from about 1,000 to about 100,000, more preferably from about 2,000 to about 50,000, most preferably about 5,000 to about 20,000. Organic backbones contemplated include those that are derived from polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated monomers, including vinyl monomers, and other condensation monomers (e.g., those that polymerize to form polyamides and polyesters), ring-opening monomers (e.g., ethyl oxazoline and caprolactone), etc. Also contemplated are backbones based on cellulosic chains, ether-containing backbones, etc.
Preferred silicone grafted polymers for use in the shampoo composition comprise monomer units derived from: at least one free radically polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer or monomers and at least one free radically polymerizable polysiloxane-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer or monomers.
The silicone grafted polymers suitable for use in the shampoo composition generally comprise from about 1% to about 50%, by weight, of polysiloxane-containing monomer units and from about 50%
to about 99% by weight, of non-polysiloxane-containing monomers. The non-polysiloxane-containing monomer units can be derived from the hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic monomer units described hereinbefore.
The styling polymer for use in the shampoo composition can therefore comprise combinations of the hydrophobic andlor polysiloxane-containing monomer units described herein, with or without hydrophilic comonomers as described herein, provided that the resulting styling polymer has the requisite characteristics as described herein.
Suitable polymerizable polysiloxane-containing monomers include, but are not limited to, those monomers that conform to the formula:

Properties of StyiinQ Shampoo Compositions The styling shampoo compositions of the present invention exhibit specific physical properties as defined by the Hair Feel Index (HFI) and Curl Retention Index (CRV) which are determined as described below.
Compositions of the invention are characterized by having an HFI of at least 0.65 and a CRV of at least 70. Preferred compositions are characterized by having an HFI of at least 0.70 and a CRV of at least 75. More preferred compositions are characterized by having an HFI of at least 0.80 and a CRV of at least 80.
MethodoloQV for Determining HFI and CRV:
The following applies in determining each value. The hair switches are made by Advanced Testing Laboratories (Cincinnati, OH). Also, the silicone containing non-styling shampoo has the following formulation:
Com ponent Weight '/.

Ammonium Laureth-3 15.0 Sulfate Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate5.0 Glycol Distearate 2.0 Dimethicone 1.5 Fragrance 0.7 Tricetyl Methylmonium0.5 Chloride Cocamide MEA 0.85 Cetyl Alcohol 0.21 Stearyl Alcohol 0.09 Preservatives 0.3 Monosodium Phosphate0.1 Disodium Phosphate 0.2 Water 73.55 The silicone containing non-styling shampoo is prepared in the following manner. A premix is prepared by solubilizing the solids in half of the ammonium laureth-3 sulfate and enough water such that the premix is 50% of the finished batch. The target premix temperature is 74°C. Next the premix is cooled to approximately 38°C. The dimethicone is emulsified as a separate premix using a portion of the ammonium laureth-3 sulfate. The dimethicone emulsion and the remaining components are then added to the batch with sufficient agitation to ensure a homogeneous composition.

Additionally, all water is 38°C tap water with a grain of 7 to 1 1 and a flow rate of 5.7 liters per minute. Also, care is taken to avoid contamination of a given product with another (e.g., by wearing clean gloves).
a) Hair Feel Index:
The Hair Fee! Index (HFI) of a treated hair switch is determined by having panelists evaluate treated hair switches for two attributes, resistance and roughness, each on a scale of 0 to 10. For resistance, 0 is "no resistance" and 10 is "lots of resistance." For roughness, 0 is "not rough" and 10 is "extremely rough." The silicone containing non-styling shampoo is identified as the internal control for each attribute with an assigned value: 5.75 for resistance and 4.50 for roughness.
The hair switches used in the procedure are 2 gmI15.25 cm long, flat, and slightly bleached virgin brown hair from DeMeo Brothers in New York. Each switch is approximately 3.8 cm wide and is secured with a 2.5 cm high Plexiglas top.
In preparation for test product application, the switches are clipped together in pairs and then wetted with tap water. 2 cc of test product is applied to each pair of switches and is massaged, or milked, therein for 30 seconds such that the shampoo is distributed evenly throughout the switch. Each pair of switches is then rinsed with water for 30 seconds. The switch pair is then turned around and another 2 cc of test product is applied to each pair of switches and is massaged, or milked, therein for 30 seconds, followed by another 30 second rinse. This process of two treatments and two rinses is defined as a cycle.
The switch pair is then unclipped, each individual switch is turned around so that the sides facing each other are now on the outside of the switch pair. The switch pair is then reciipped and a second cycle is applied. During the last two seconds of the second lather of this cycle, the switch pair is combed through once with a beautician's comb. The switch pair is then fumed around and a third cycle is applied. The switch pair is then unclipped, quickly rinsed, and then combed through once.
After rinsing, the excess water is squeezed from each switch by running the index and middle fingers along the length of the switch with Earn pressure. The switches are placed on a foil covered tray and then covered with foil to keep them wet until the panelist is ready to evaluate them.
In preparation for control shampoo application, the switch pairs receive one cycle as defined above. The switch pair is then unclipped, quickly rinsed, and then combed through once. After rinsing, the excess water is squeezed from each switch by running the index and middle fingers along the length of the switch with firm pressure. The switches are placed on a foil covered tray and then covered with foil to !seep them wet until the panelist is ready to evaluate them. A total of 24 switches ase treated for each test product and the control.
Each panelist receives a tray with a control switch (identified) and two to three test products. The test products are randomized to avoid any bias associated with order. The panelists cleanse their fingertips with isopropyl alcohol swabs and allow them to dry prior to performing the evaluation. The control switch is dipped into a beaker of warm water, the excess water is squeezed from each switch by running the index and middle fingers along the length of the switch with moderate pressure, and clipped to a horizontal bar.
The same procedure is then followed for each test product. Once the switches are all hung on the bar, the panelists begin their evaluation. For each attribute, the control is evaluated first to establish a reference point for the panelist. The score for the control is pre-recorded on the test ballot.
First, the switches are evaluated for resistance. Slowly moving the index finger and middle finger along the switch, from top to bottom, the panelist feels for the presence of absence of drag when moving fingers down the hair switch. Each panelist records the resistance score.
Next, the switches are evaluated for roughness. Slowly running the thumb and index finger along the switch, from top to bottom, the panelist feels for unevenness of the hair tress which would be associated with brittle or straw-like hair.
Each panelist records the roughness score.
A minimum of twelve panelists evaluate the test product switches. The mean resistance is determined by averaging the resistance scores from each panelist for each test product. The mean roughness is determined by averaging the roughness scores from each panelist for each test product. The Resistance Index (Rel) is defined as the mean resistance score for each test product indexed to the control using the assigned resistance score for the control (5.75). The Roughness Index (Rol) is defined as the mean roughness score for each test product indexed to the control using the assigned roughness score for the control (4.50). The Hair Feel Index (HFI) is then defined by the following equation:
HFI = (ReI + RoIy2.
b) Curl Retention Valae:
The Curl Retention Value (CRV) is predictive of perceived style/hold benefits in styling shampoos by measuring the amount of curl retention over time.
This procedure utilizes curly permed hair switches which are prepared in the following manner.
First, 4 gm/20.3 cm long, round switches are rinsed with water for 30 seconds and the excess water is squeezed from the switch using the first two fingers. Next, 0.5 cc of Perfect Comb Out waving lotion (ZOTOS) is applied to the bottom 5 cm of each switch using a syringe. Each switch is then divided into 3 equal sections. Once an end wrap is placed on the end of each section, each section is then curled by starting at the right side of a 0.95 cm diameter straight rod, wrapping the hair tightly and spirally along the length of the rod. Using a syringe, 8 cc of waving lotion is applied such that the entire switch is covered.
The rolled switches are then placed in plastic bag or wrapped in cellophane 2 at a time. After 30 minutes, the switches are unrolled and checked to see if the desired wave pattern has been achieved. If not, the switches are then re-rolled and spot checked every 2 minutes until the desired wave pattern is achieved, being careful not to exceed a total of 45 minutes. With the rods still intact, the switches are then rinsed for 90 seconds and blotted with a paper towel to remove excess water. After blot drying, 10 cc of 20 volume peroxide is applied to each rolled switch. Five minutes later the rods are removed from the switches. The switches are rinsed with water for 1 minute, and blotted with a paper towel.
Without combing, the switches are then laid flat on a Plexiglas tray and left to dry in a room at ambient temperature and relative humidity. After 2 days, the switches are shampooed with Prell shampoo by applying 4 cc of Prell shampoo, lathering with for 30 seconds, rinsing with water for 30 seconds, applying another 4 cc of Prell shampoo, lathering for 30 more seconds, and rinsing with water again for 60 seconds. Each switch is blotted three times with a paper towel.
Next, the various products and control compositions are applied to the switches. For shampoo, 0.2 cc of shampoo is applied to each switch. The switch is lathered for 30 seconds and then rinsed for 30 seconds. A second 0.2 cc of shampoo is applied and the process is repeated, 30 seconds of lathering followed by 30 seconds of rinsing. During the lathering, the end of each switch is brought up to the top of the switch and scrubbed, hair against hair, to generate lather during the first 10 seconds. The switch is milked for the remaining 20 seconds. Upon completion of product application, each switch is combed through once with a small tooth beautician's comb and the excess water is squeezed from each switch by running the thumb and forefinger along the length of each switch such that the hair resembles a smooth, flat ribbon. Four switches are treated per test product and control.
Next, the hair of each switch is curled using a 22 mm diameter, 70 mm tong 'magnetic' roller with a matching cover. The hair of each switch is curled by starting at the right side of the roller and wrapping the hair tightly around the roller, catching the hair ends under the hair strand as the hair is rolled with tension spirally up the roller. It is important to use the same amount of tension when curling all switch samples in order to ensure like test conditions. Once each switch is rolled, each roller is placed on end on a Plexiglas tray in a convection air drying box for 3 hours at approximately 57°C to 60°C and at an ambient relative humidity. Once drying is complete, the still-rolled switches are placed in a 27°C/15%
relative humidity room and allowed to cool for about 30 minutes before the rollers are removed from the switches.
After cooling, the rollers are removed by carefully unrolling each switch. In preparation for curl fall measurements, each curled switch is hung vertically and grouped according to test product. The initial length of the curled switch (Lp) is measured from the lowest end of the clip holding the switch to the end of the switch. This measurement is taken to the nearest mm using a metric ruler. The switches are then placed in a 27°C I80% relative humidity room and the curl lengths are remeasured at 30 minutes (L30) to determine the curl fall. The Curl Retention Value (CRV) for a switch is calculated using the followin' formula:
CRV - L _ Lø0 x 100%
where L is the original length of the untreated switch; L30 is the length of the test product or control curl switch after 30 minutes; and LO is the length of the test product or control switch at the time of roller removal.

These additional agents are also entrapped in the coacervate, thus impacting styling performance and hair feel both directly and indirectly. These additional optional agents are described in more detail hereinafter.
a) Volatile Carrier for the StvIinQ Pol men The shampoo composition of the present invention may further comprise a volatile carrier for solubilizing the hair styling polymers described hereinbefore. The carrier helps disperse the hair styling polymer as water-insoluble fluid particles throughout the shampoo composition, wherein the dispersed particles comprise the styling polymer and the volatile carrier. Carriers suitable for this purpose include hydrocarbons; ethers, esters, amines, alkyl alcohols, volatile silicone derivatives and combinations thereof, many examples of which are well known in the art.
The volatile carrier must be water-insoluble or have a low water solubility.
The selected styling polymer, however, must also be sufficiently soluble in the selected carrier to allow dispersion of the hair styling polymer and solvent combination as a separate, dispersed fluid phase in the shampoo composition.
The carrier for use in the shampoo composition must also be a volatile material. In this context, the team volatile means that the carrier has a boiling point of less than about 300°C, preferably from about 90°C to about 260°C, more preferably from about 100°C to about 200°C (at about one atmosphere of pressure).
The concentration of the volatile carrier in the shampoo composition must be sufficient to solubilize the hair styling polymer and disperse it as a separate fluid phase in the shampoo composition.
Such concentrations generally range from about 0.10% to about 10%, preferably from about 0.5% to about 8%, most preferably from about 1% to about 6%, by weight of the shampoo composition, wherein the weight ratio of styling polymer to cannier is preferably from about 10:90 to about 70:30, more preferably from about 20:80 to about 65:35, even more preferably from about 30:70 to about 60:40. If the weight ratio of styling polymer to carrier is too low, the lathering performance of the shampoo composition is negatively affected. If the ratio of polymer to solvent is too high, the composition becomes too viscous and causes difficulty in the dispersion of the styling polymer. The hair styling agents should have an average particle diameter in the final shampoo product of from about 0.05 to about 100 microns, prefer-ably from about I to about 25 microns, more preferably from about 0.5 to about 10 microns.

Dispersion Science and Technology, Vol. 9 (S,ti), 1988-89, pp 561-573, and D.
J. Burgess, "Practical Analysis of Complex Coacervate Systems", J. of Colloid and lnrerface Science, Vol. 140, No. 1, November 1990, pp 227-238.
It is believed to be particularly advantageous for the cationic polymer to be present in the shampoo composition in a coacervate phase, or to form a coacervate phase upon application or rinsing of the shampoo to or from the hair. Complex coacervates are believed to more readily deposit on the hair. Thus, in general, it is preferred that the cationic polymer exist in the shampoo composition as a coacervate phase or form a coacervate phase upon dilution. if not already a coacervate in the shampoo composition, the cationic polymer will preferably exist in a complex coacervate form in the shampoo upon dilution with water.
'Techniques for analysis of formation of complex coacervates are known in the art. For example, microscopic analyses of the shampoo compositions, at any chosen stage of dilution, can be utilized to identify whether a coacervate phase has formed. Such coacervate phase will be identifiable as an adc'itional emulsified phase in the composition. The use of dyes can aid in distinguishing the coacervate phase from other insoluble phases dispersed in the shampoo composition.
c) Select Stability Active The shampoo compositions of the present invention may further comprise a select crystalline.
hydroxyl-containing stabilizer. The stabilizer is used to form a crystalline stabilizing network in the emulsion that prevents the styling polymerivolatiie carrier droplets from coalescing and the shampoo from phase splitting. Additionally, significantly lower levels of the crystalline, hydroxyl-containing stabilizer need to be used relative tb traditional stability actives. This results in enhanced deposition efficiency of the hair styling polymer onto the hair as well as reduced interactions with other shampoo components.
The stabilizers used herein are not surfactants. The stabilizers provide improved shelf and stress stability, but allow the styling polymedvolatile cattier emulsion to separate upon lathering, and thereby provide for increased styling polymer deposition onto the hair.
The stabilizer suitable for use in the shampoo compositions are characterized by the general formula:
OH
CH~O C (CH2)x CH (CH2)a CH3 O OH
CHO C (CH2)y CH (CH2)b CH3 OH
CH20 C (CH2)z CH (CHZ)c CH3 wherein: (x + a) is from between 1 I and 17, (y + b) is from between I 1 and 17, (z + c) is from between 11 and 17;
preferably: x=y=z=10, and a=b~5.
The crystalline, hydroxyl-containing stabilizer comprises from about 0.005% to about 2.0%, preferably from about 0.05% to about 0.25% by weight of the composition. The preferred suspending agent for use in the compositions herein is trihydroxstearin available from ltheox, Inc. (New Jersey, USA) under the tradename Thixcin R

e) Polvalkvlene Glycol The shampoo compositions of the present invention may further comprise selected poiyalkylene glycols in amounts effective to enhance the conditioned feel of the hair, to mitigate the coated hail feel resulting from the cationic deposition polymer, and to enhance the styling performance of the shampoo.
Effective concentrations of the selected polyethylene glycols range from about 0.025% to about 1.5°,'0.

preferably from about 0.05% to about 1.0%, more preferably from about 0.1% to about 0.5%, by weight of the shampoo composition.' The polyalkylene glycols suitable for use in the shampoo compositions are characterized by the general formula:
H(OCH~CH)n OH
R
wherein R is hydrogen, methyl or mixtures thereof, preferably hydrogen, and n is an integer having an average value of from about 1,500 to about 25,000, preferably from about 2,500 to about 20,000, and more preferably from about 3,500 to about 15,000. When R is hydrogen, these materials are polymers of ethylene oxide, which are also known as polyethylene oxides, polyoxyethylenes, and polyethylene glycols.
When R is methyl, these materials are polymers of propylene oxide, which are also known as polypropylene oxides, polyoxypropylenes, and polypropylene glycols. When R is methyl, it is also understood that various positional isomers of the resulting polymers can exist.
Specific examples of suitable polyethylene glycol polymers include PEG-14 M
wherein R is hydrogen and n has an average value of about 14,000 (PEG-14 M is also known as Polyox WSR~ N-3000 available from Union Carbide) and PEG-23 M wherein R is hydrogen and n has an average value of about 23,000 (PEG-23 M is also known as Polyox WSR~ N-12K available from Union Carbide).
Suitable polyalkylene polymers include polypropylene glycols and mixed polyethylenelpoiypropylene glycols.
It has been found that these polyalkylene glycols, when added to the styling shampoo compositions described herein, enhance the conditioned hair feel by mitigating the coated hair feel resulting from deposition of the cationic deposition polymer. Moreover, these polyalkene glycols also significantly enhance the styling performance versus compositions formulated without. polyethylene glycols. This performance is especially surprising as polyalkene giycols are not known to deliver any styling performance to hair and a synergistic relationship with the other styling shampoo components could not be anticipated.

References disclosing examples of some suitable silicone fluids for use in the shampoo compositions include U.S. Patent 2,826,551. U.S. Patent 3,964,500, U.S. Patent 4,364,837, British Patent 849,433. and Silicon Compounds, Petrarch Systems, Jnc. (1984), Silicone resins can be included in the silicone conditioning agent. These resins are highly crosslinked polymeric siloxane systems. The crosslinking is introduced through the incorporation of trifunctional and tetrafunctional silanes with monofunctional or difunctional, or both, silanes during manufacture of the silicone resin. As is well understood in the art, the degree of crosslinking that is required in order to result in a silicone resin will vary according to the specific silane units incorporated into the silicone resin. In general, silicone materials which have a sufficient level of trifunctional and tetrafunctional siloxane monomer uniu (and hence, a sufficient level of crosslinking) such that they dry down to a rigid, or hard, film are considered to be silicone resins. The ratio of oxygen atoms to silicon atoms is indicative of the level of crosslinking in a particular silicone material. Silicone materials which have at least about 1.1 oxygen atoms per silicon atom will generally be silicone resins herein. Preferably, the ratio of oxygenailicon atoms is at least about 1.2:1Ø Silanes used in the manufacture of silicone resins include monomethyl-, dimethyl-, trimethyl-, monophenyl-, Biphenyl-, methylphenyl-, monovinyl-, and methylvinyl-chlorosilanes, and tetrachlorosilane, with the methyl-substituted silanes being most commonly utilized. Preferted resins are offered by General Electric as GE
SS4230 and SS4267.
Commercially available silicone resins will generally be supplied in a dissolved form in a low viscosity volatile or nonvolatile silicone fluid. The silicone resins for use herein should be supplied and incorporated into the present compositions in such dissolved form, as will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
Background material on silicones including sections discussing silicone fluids, gums, and resins, as well as manufacture of silicones, can be found in Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, Volume 15, Second Edition, pp 204-308, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1989.
Silicone materials and silicone resins in particular, can conveniently be identified according to a shorthand nomenclature system well known to those skilled in the art as "MDTQ"
nomenclature. Under this system, the silicone is described according to presence of various siloxane monomer units which make up rite silicone. Briefly, the symbol M denotes the monofunctional unit (CH3)3Si0,5; D denotes the difunctional unit (CH3)2Si0; T denotes the trifvnctional unit (CH3)Si01.5; and Q denotes the quadri- or tetra-functional unit Si02. Primes of the unit symbols, e.g., M', D', T, and Q' denote substituents other than methyl, and must be specifically defined for each occurrence. Typical alternate substituents include groups such as vinyl, phenyls, amines, hydroxyls, etc. The molar ratios of the various units, either in terms of subscripts to the symbols indicating the total number of each type of unit in the silicone (or an average thereof) or as specifically indicated ratios in combination with molecular weight complete the description of the silicone material under the MDTQ system. Higher relative molar amounts of T, Q, T' and/or Q' to D, D', M and/or M' in a silicone resin is indicative of higher levels of crosslinking. As discussed before, however, the overall level of crosslinking can also be indicated by the oxygen to silicon ratio.
?he silicone resins for use herein which are preferred are MQ, MT, MTQ, MDT
and MDTQ
resins. Thus, the preferred silicone substituent is methyl. Especially preferred are MQ resins wherein the M:Q ratio is from about 0.5:1.0 to about 1.5:1.0 and the average molecular weight of the resin is from about 1000 to about 10,000.
The weight ratio of the nonvolatile silicone fluid, having refractive index below 1.46, to the silicone resin component, when used, is preferably from about 4:1 to about 400:1, preferably this ratio is from about 9:1 to about 200:1, more preferably from about 19:1 to about 100:1, p2rticularly when the silicone fluid component is a polydimethylsiloxane fluid or a mixture of polydimethylsiloxane fluid and polydimethylsiloxane gum as described above. Insofar as the silicone resin forms a part of the same phase in the compositions hereof as the silicone fluid, i.e. the conditioning active, the sum of the fluid and resin should be included in determining the level of silicone conditioning agem in the composition.
g) Optional Aeents The shampoo compositions of the present invention may further comprise additional materials which improve the performance and/or aesthetics of the compositions of the present invention. These materials compete with other shampoo composition materials for solubilization by the surfactant component. As a result, they impact both the amount of coacervate which forms upon dilution and the composition of this coacervate. Additionally, the additional optional agents are also entrapped in the coacervate. The styling polymer/volatile carrier droplets are deposited onto the hair by the coacervate, thus these optional agents can be used to directly influence styling performance by impacting the amount of coacervate formed as well as hair feel by impacting the composition of the coacervate.
Highly preferred optional agents includes crystalline materials that can be categorized as acyl derivatives, long chain amine oxides, or combinations thereof, concentrations of which range from about 0.1% to about 5.0%, preferably from about 0.5% to about 3.0%, by weight of the shampoo compositions.
These agents are described as suspending agents in U.S. Patent 4,741,855, and U.S. Reissue Patent 34,584 (Grote et al.), which descriptions arc incorporated herein by reference. These preferred materials include ethylene glycol esters of fatty acids preferably having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms. More preferred are the ethylene glycol stearates, both mono and distearate, but particularly the distearate containing less than about 7% of the mono stearate. Other suitable optional agents include alkanol amides of fatty acids, preferably having from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, more preferably about 16 to 18 carbon atoms, preferred examples of which include stearic monoethanolamide, stearic diethanolamide, stearic monoisopropanolamide and stearic monoethanolamide stearate. Other long chain acyl derivatives include long chain esters of long chain fatty acids (e.g., stearyl siearate, cetyl palmitate, etc.); glyceryl esters (e.g., glyceryl distearate) and long chain esters of long chain alkanol amides (e.g., stearamide diethanolamide distearate, stearamide monoethanolamide stearate). Long chain acyl derivatives, ethylene glycol esters of long chain carboxylic acids, long chain amine oxides, and alkanol amides of long chain carboxylic acids in addition to the preferred materials listed above may be used as suspending agents.
Other long chain acyl derivatives suitable for use as additional optional agents include N,N-dihydrocarbyl amido benzoic acid and soluble salts thereof (e.g., Na, K), particularly N,N-di(hydrogenated) C 16, C 1 g and tallow amido benzoic acid species of this family, which arc commercially available from Stepan Company (Northfield, Illinois, USA).
Examples of suitable long chain amine oxides include alkyl (C16-C22) dimethyi amine oxides, e.g., stearyl dimethyl amine oxide.
