Description

The The present invention relates to a method for permanent deformation Keratinischer fibers and devices for carrying out this Process.

The Permanent deformation of keratin fibers is usually carried out so that the Fiber mechanically deformed and the deformation by suitable aids sets. Before and / or after this deformation one treats the Fiber with the aqueous preparation a keratin-reducing substance and rinses after an exposure time with water or an aqueous solution. In In a second step, the fiber is then treated with the aqueous preparation an oxidizing agent. After a period of action, this is also rinsed and the fiber from the mechanical deformation aids (winder, Papilloten) freed.

The aqueous preparation the keratin-reducing substance is usually alkaline, so on the one hand sufficient Share of thiol functions deprotonated present and the other the fiber swells and in this way a deep penetration of the keratin reducing Substance in the fiber allows becomes. The keratin-reducing substance cleaves some of the disulfide bonds keratin to -SH groups, causing a relaxation of the Peptide crosslinking and due to the tension of the fiber by the mechanical Deformation comes to a reorientation of Keratingefüges. Under the influence of Oxidizing agent are again linked disulfide bonds, and In this way, the Keratinefüge is in the predetermined deformation fixed again. One known such method is permanent wave treatment This can both for the production of curls and waves in straight hair as well as to smooth out curled ones Hair are applied.

A negative concomitant of the permanent curl of the hair thus performed is often an embrittlement and dulling the hair. Furthermore, especially at Persons with sensitive skin, an irritation of the scalp observed become.

It Therefore, the task was to make the Dauerwellprozeß more effective and a hair deformation in shorter To allow time or to improve the wave result with the same application time.

Of the The present invention was therefore based on the object, a Haarvertormungsverfahren to provide the state of the art by advantages in terms of the application (application time) and / or the effects achieved (Intensity and durability of curl or smoothing) lifts. It should especially wave effects amplified and / or treatment or contact times are shortened.

It it has now been found that it is beneficial to means for permanent deformation of hair on Apply the hair and the hair so treated before rinsing the Agent with UV radiation to irradiate.

• – z.B. Lockenwickler oder Papilloten im Falle einer Dauerwelle,
• – oder Hilfsmittel für eine mechanische Glättung, wie ein Kamm oder eine Bürste, ein Glättungsboard oder ein beheizbares Glättungseisen im Falle einer Haarglättung sein.

Vertormungshilfsmittel in the sense of the method according to the invention can

• - for example curlers or papillots in the case of a perm,
• - or auxiliary for a mechanical smoothing, such as a comb or a brush, a smoothing board or a heatable smoothing iron in case of hair straightening.

If the deformation aids, such as winder, as part of a Continuous blast process for one longer Period attached to the fiber, so it is appropriate to this Deformation aid after step (iii) or after step (iv) to remove.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the keratin-containing fibers before the step (i) moistened. This can be done by spraying the fibers with a liquid, preferably with water. Preferably, the fibers become before step (i) with a conventional shampoo shampooed, rinsed and then terry with a towel. After completion of the terry step remains a noticeable residual moisture back in the hair.

Under a mechanical smoothing becomes according to the invention an extension the curly fiber understood along its longest spatial extent.

in the inventive method becomes a hair treatment agent containing at least one keratin-reducing Contains substance, applied to the keratinic fibers, and the fibers become before, during or deformed after application of the hair treatment agent. With Hair treatment agent provided and deformed fibers are with Irradiated UV radiation and rinsed after a contact time Z1 and optionally dried. The exposure time Z1 is the period in which the hair treatment agent acting on the keratinic fibers, i. during the time Z1 can in the process according to the invention if necessary, a deformation of the fibers take place (always, if step (i) does not occur before step (ii)), and it becomes a Irradiation with UV radiation carried out. The reaction time Z1 is Accordingly, the period in which the hair treatment agent on the keratinic fibers, regardless of what happens during this period still happening.

The Exposure time Z1 is preferably 5-60 Minutes, preferably 5-45 Minutes.

The Exposure time Z2 is preferably 1-30 Minutes, preferably 1-15 Minutes.

An essential constituent of the fixing agents used in the process according to the invention are oxidizing agents, for example sodium bromate, potassium bromate, hydrogen peroxide, and the stabilizers customary for stabilizing aqueous hydrogen peroxide preparations. The pH of such aqueous H ₂ O ₂ preparations, which usually contain about 0.5 to 15% by weight, usually about 0.5 to 3% by weight, of H ₂ O ₂ , is preferably 2 to 6, in particular 2 to 4; it is adjusted by inorganic acids, preferably phosphoric acid. Bromate-based fixatives are usually used in concentrations of from 1 to 10% by weight and the pH of the solutions is adjusted to 4 to 7. Likewise suitable are enzymatic-based fixatives (eg peroxidases) which contain no or only small amounts of oxidizing agents, in particular H ₂ O ₂ . The fixing agents preferably contain at least 50% by weight of water.

in the inventive method is a hair treatment agent containing at least one keratin-reducing Contains substance, applied to the fibers. The fibers to be treated can before the application of the hair treatment agent, but also after or even during that treated with molding aids, i. be deformed.

The Penetrate Keratinreduzierenden substances of the hair treatment agent into the hair and lead to a change the inner structure, what you get in the classic perm treatment makes use of. In perming, the keratin-reducing splits Substance part of the disulfide bonds of keratin to -SH groups, so that it to a loosening of the peptide cross-linking and due to the tension the fiber through the mechanical deformation to a reorientation of the Keratingefüges comes. Under the influence of Oxidizing agent are again linked disulfide bonds, and In this way, the Keratinefüge is in the predetermined deformation fixed again. The perm treatment of human hair can both for the creation of curls and waves in straight hair as well as for smoothing of ruffled hair be applied.

In the classical perming process, the aqueous preparation of the keratin reducing agent is usually more strongly alkaline, so that on the one hand a sufficient proportion of the thiol functions deprotonated and on the other swells the fiber and in this way a deep penetration of the keratin reducing substance is made possible in the fiber. Since the effect of the substances is supported by UV radiation in the method according to the invention, a much lower alkaline pH adjustment is possible, so that preferred methods according to the invention are characterized in that the hair treatment agent has a pH of 5 to 10, preferably from 5.5 to 9 and in particular from 6 to 8. For agents containing ammonium thioglycolate, pH values of about 7.3 to 10 are preferred, for agents containing glycerol monothioglycolate and / or cysteamine, pH values of 6-7 are preferred

Here, deformation aids according to the invention are preferred which additionally comprise heating means, preferably electrical heating means. In addition to or in place of the heating means, the forming aids may include a fan which blows air which may be heated. Deformation aids, which additionally comprise at least one fan, preferably at least one hot air blower, are a further preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Cold and warm air devices with heating and blower for drying or heat treatment of hair or for drying wet hands after a washing process are known in various designs, for example as a so-called Fön ^® (trademark of AEG) (hand dandruff / drying and styling of hair) or by the EP 0 176 003 B1 as a dry hood (perennial or dyeing / bleaching of hair) or through the EP 0 695 521 B1 as a device in open design (permanent undulation or dyeing / bleaching of hair). Devices of this type generally work reliably and fulfill their intended purpose.

According to the invention preferred Deformation aids with blower are characterized in that they have several Heating and blower stages include to the strength the blower airflow and / or to vary the heating power.

About the Control in several heating and blower stages can be depending on the desired Application temperature and duration and depending on the desired Radiation power the application of UV radiation by hot air supports or the heat development the radiation sources are tempered by cold air.

at preferred according to the invention Deformation aids with blower and / or heating (e.g., by means of a to a heating resistor in series circuit) a sensitive control of the temperature the discharged hot air depending one of the user selectable Setpoint possible. For this purpose, the temperature of the discharged hot air by means of a temperature sensor detected and with the chosen one Setpoint compared. The compliance with the temperature setpoint required heating power is through a so-called pulse packet control realized. The heat output from the heating resistor is doing so by pulse-like driving a switch, for example a triac, for reaches the heating element. The ratio of the pulse duration, at the heater is turned on, the pulse duration at which the Heating is off, determines the effective heating capacity of the Heating resistor.
