Description

The present invention relates to a method of dyeing human hair, in which a few strands of the hair are selectively selected using a film with a marked pattern of holes and then subjected to a color change with a color-changing agent. Furthermore, a packaging unit (kit) containing at least color-changing agent, as well as said cover film and a head cover made therefrom is the subject of the invention.

• Für dauerhafte, intensive Färbungen mit entsprechenden Echtheitseigenschaften werden sogenannte Oxidationsfärbemittel verwendet. Solche Färbemittel enthalten üblicherweise Oxidationsfarbstoffvorprodukte, sogenannte Entwicklerkomponenten und Kupplerkomponenten. Die Entwicklerkomponenten bilden unter dem Einfluß von Oxidationsmitteln oder von Luftsauerstoff untereinander oder unter Kupplung mit einer oder mehreren Kupplerkomponenten die eigentlichen Farbstoffe aus. Die Oxidationsfärbemittel zeichnen sich zwar durch hervorragende, lang anhaltende Färbeergebnisse aus. Für natürlich wirkende Färbungen muß aber üblicherweise eine Mischung aus einer größeren Zahl von Oxidationsfarbstoffvorprodukten eingesetzt werden; in vielen Fällen werden weiterhin direktziehende Farbstoffe zur Nuancierung verwendet.

Human hair is today treated in a variety of ways with hair cosmetic preparations. These include, for example, the cleansing of hair with shampoos, the care and regeneration with rinses and cures and the bleaching, dyeing and shaping of the hair with dyes, tinting agents, waving agents and styling preparations. In this case, means for changing or nuancing the color of the head hair play a prominent role. Apart from the bleaching agents that cause an oxidative lightening of the hair by degradation of the natural hair dyes, so in the field of hair coloring essentially four types of hair dyes of importance:

• For permanent, intensive colorations with corresponding fastness properties, so-called oxidation colorants are used. Such colorants usually contain oxidation dye precursors, so-called developer components and coupler components. The developer components form the actual dyes under the influence of oxidizing agents or of atmospheric oxygen with one another or with coupling with one or more coupler components. The oxidation dyes are characterized by excellent, long-lasting dyeing results. For naturally acting dyeings but usually a mixture of a larger number of oxidation dye precursors must be used; In many cases, direct dyes are still used for shading.

The developer components are usually primary aromatic amines having a further, in the para or ortho position, free or substituted hydroxy or amino group, diaminopyridine derivatives, heterocyclic hydrazones, 4-aminopyrazolone derivatives and 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine and its derivatives used ,

Specific representatives are, for example, p-phenylenediamine, p-toluenediamine, 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine, p-aminophenol, N, N-bis (2-hydroxyethyl) -p-phenylenediamine, 2- (2,5-diaminophenyl) -ethanol, 2- (2,5-diaminophenoxy) ethanol, 1-phenyl-3-carboxyamido-4-amino-pyrazolone-5, 4-amino-3-methylphenol, 2-aminomethyl-4-aminophenol, 2-hydroxy -4,5,6-triaminopyrimidine, 2,4-dihydroxy-5,6-diaminopyrimidine, 2,5,6-triamino-4-hydroxypyrimidine and 1,3-N, N'-bis (2-hydroxy-ethyl) -N, N'-bis (4-aminophenyl) -diamino-propan-2-ol.

As coupler components m-phenylenediamine derivatives, naphthols, resorcinol and resorcinol derivatives, pyrazolones and m-aminophenols are generally used. Particularly suitable as coupler substances are 1-naphthol, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene and 1,7-dihydroxynaphthalene, 5-amino-2-methylphenol, m-aminophenol, resorcinol, resorcinol monomethyl ether, m-phenylenediamine, 1-phenyl 3-methyl-pyrazolone-5, 2,4-dichloro-3-aminophenol, 1,3-bis (2,4-diaminophenoxy) -propane, 2-chlororesorcinol, 4-chlororesorcinol, 2-chloro-6-methyl 3-aminophenol, 2-methylresorcinol, 5-methylresorcinol and 2-methyl-4-chloro-5-aminophenol.

For temporary dyeings usually dyeing or tinting agents are used which contain so-called direct drawers as a coloring component. These are dye molecules that grow directly on the hair and do not require an oxidative process to form the color. These dyes include, for example, the henna already known from antiquity for coloring body and hair. These dyeings are generally much more sensitive to shampooing than the oxidative dyeings, so that a much more undesirable nuance shift or even a visible "discoloration" occurs much more quickly.

Finally, further dyeing has received much attention. In this method, precursors of the natural hair dye melanin are applied to the hair; These then form naturally-analogous dyes in the course of oxidative processes in the hair. Such a process with 5,6-dihydroxyindoline as a dye precursor has been described in US Pat EP-B1-530 229 described. In particular, multiple use of agents with 5,6-dihydroxyindoline, it is possible to reproduce natural hair color to people with graying hair. The dyeing can be done with atmospheric oxygen as the sole oxidant, so that no further oxidizing agent must be used. In persons with original Medium-blond to brown hair, the indoline can be used as the sole dye precursor. On the other hand, satisfactory results can often only be achieved for use in persons with originally red and, in particular, dark to black hair color, by using other dye components, in particular special oxidation dye precursors.

1. A Verbindungen, die eine reaktive Carbonylgruppe enthalten mit Komponente
2. B Verbindungen, ausgewählt aus (a) CH-aciden Verbindungen, (b) Verbindungen mit primärer oder sekundärer Aminogruppe oder Hydroxygruppe, ausgewählt aus primären oder sekundären aromatischen Aminen, stickstoffhaltigen heterozyklischen Verbindungen und aromatischen Hydroxyverbindungen, (c) Aminosäuren, (d) aus 2 bis 9 Aminosäuren aufgebauten Oligopeptiden

enthalten. Die entsprechende Färbemethode (im folgenden Oxofärbung genannt) wird beispielweise in den Druckschriften WO-A1-99/18916 , WO-A1-00/38638 , WO-A1-01/34106 und WO-A1-01/47483 beschrieben. Die resultierenden Färbungen besitzen teilweise Farbechtheiten auf der keratinhaltigen Faser, die mit denen der Oxidationsfärbung vergleichbar sind. Das mit der schonenden Oxofärbung erzielbare Nuancenspektrum ist sehr breit und die erhaltene Färbung weist oftmals eine akzeptable Brillanz und Farbtiefe auf. Die vorgenannten Komponenten A und B, im weiteren als Oxofarbstoffvorprodukte bezeichnet, sind im allgemeinen selbst keine Farbstoffe, und eignen sich daher jede für sich genommen allein nicht zur Färbung keratinhaltiger Fasern. In Kombination bilden sie in einem nichtoxidativen Prozess Farbstoffe aus. Unter Verbindungen der Komponente B können allerdings auch entsprechende Oxidationsfarbstoffvorprodukte vom Entwickler- und/oder Kupplertyp mit oder ohne Einsatz eines Oxidationsmittels Verwendung finden. Somit läßt sich die Methode der Oxofärbung ohne weiteres mit dem oxidativen Färbesystem kombinieren.Another way to stain keratin-containing fibers is through the use of stains containing a combination of component

1. A compounds containing a reactive carbonyl group with component
2. B Compounds selected from (a) CH-acidic compounds, (b) compounds having primary or secondary amino group or hydroxy group selected from primary or secondary aromatic amines, nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds and aromatic hydroxy compounds, (c) amino acids, (d) from 2 up to 9 amino acids oligopeptides

contain. The corresponding dyeing method (referred to below as oxo dyeing) is described, for example, in the publications WO-A1-99 / 18916 . WO-A1-00 / 38638 . WO-A1-01 / 34106 and WO-A1-01 / 47483 described. The resulting dyeings have partially color fastness on the keratin-containing fiber, which are comparable to those of the oxidation dyeing. The Nuancenspektrum achievable with the gentle oxo staining is very broad and the color obtained often has an acceptable brilliance and color depth. The aforementioned components A and B, hereinafter referred to as Oxofarbstoffvorprodukte, are generally not themselves dyes, and are therefore each alone taken not for coloring keratin-containing fibers. In combination, they form dyes in a non-oxidative process. However, it is also possible to use corresponding developer and / or coupler-type oxidation dye precursors with or without the use of an oxidizing agent under compounds of component B. Thus, the oxo staining method can be readily combined with the oxidative staining system.

For brightening keratin-containing fibers so-called bleaching agents are used. The latter contain oxidizing agents which oxidatively act on the natural hair dye melanin and optionally on synthetic fibers present in the fiber and thereby cause a color change and optimally a lightening of the hair color. The fundamentals of the bleaching and oxidative dyeing processes are known to the person skilled in the art and are described in relevant monographs, eg by K. Schrader, Basics and Formulations of Cosmetics, 2nd edition, 1989, Dr. med. Alfred Hüthig Verlag, Heidelberg , or W. Umbach (ed.), Cosmetics, 2nd edition, 1995, Georg Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart, New York , summarized.

The fashion conscious consumer either seeks a hairdresser to perform a cosmetic color change of his hair, or will himself make the color change of his hair by self-application of the color changing agents. Self-application places high demands on the consumer, in particular, when selected areas of the hair are to be changed in color. This is the case in particular with a highlight application. Problems with the application of highlights often have a visible effect on the inhomogeneity in the dense density and thus negatively on the overall impression of the staining result. The coloring results are not harmonious and unprofessional.
A harmonious picture of a streaks hairstyle offers the viewer if and when the color accentuated highlights are evenly distributed over the entire head hair area.
A particularly effective aid for self-application is provided by the use of a covering foil of the scalp hair, which is used in particular in the form of a so-called highlighting cap. The cover foil has a hole grid distributed over the surface of the foil or the hood. With another aid in the form of a crochet hook ("Strähnchenzieher") hair strands are pulled through the holes of the hood. These strands of hair are then changed in color using a suitable cosmetic agent. A highlight cap according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from US 4,357,951 known.
However, the application of the Strähnchenhaube especially during self-application is not without disadvantages. The consumer finds it extremely problematic that the holes in the cover foil with the Strähnchenzieher are untargeted only by tasting. Likewise, depending on the desired intensity of the highlighting look, the consumer should be able to uniformly determine the density of the strands over the entire head hair area. The time required for the implementation should also be reduced by a new technique.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a time-saving method which enables the user, in particular in the context of self-application, to uniformly select highlights over the entire scalp area and to change them in color. The final result should be a homogeneous and harmonious color change whose intensity of the highlighting look can be adjusted by deliberately influencing the density of the strands over the entire head hair area.
It has now surprisingly been found that the user comes in a shorter time to a correspondingly improved color change result when the cover sheet according to the invention is used.

• Lochreihe 1 entlang einer Vorzugsrichtung zu mindestens 80 % eine sich wiederholende Lochkennzeichnungsfolge "Lochkennzeichnung a / Lochkennzeichnung b / Lochkennzeichnung a / Lochkennzeichnung b / Lochkennzeichnung c / Lochkennzeichnung b" enthält
  und
• die Lochreihe 2 entlang derselben Vorzugsrichtung zu mindestens 80 % eine sich wiederholende Lochkennzeichnungsfolge "Lochkennzeichnung b / Lochkennzeichnung c / Lochkennzeichnung b / Lochkennzeichnung a / Lochkennzeichnung b / Lochkennzeichnung a" enthält.

A first object of the invention is therefore a cover sheet having a distributed over the surface of the film hole pattern in which the holes in alternating rows of holes 1 and rows of holes 2 are arranged, each hole of the hole pattern of the cover sheet visible and / or palpable with a A hole marking selected from one of a total of three different hole markings a, b and c, with the proviso that

• Hole row 1 along a preferential direction at least 80% of a repetitive hole marking sequence "hole identification a / hole identification b / hole identification a / hole identification b / hole identification c / hole identification b"
  and
• the row of holes 2 along the same preferential direction contains at least 80% of a repetitive marking order "hole marking b / hole marking c / hole marking b / hole marking a / hole marking b / hole marking a".

A row of holes is defined according to the invention as a set of holes extending along an imaginary line either from one point on one edge of the cover sheet along the surface of the cover sheet to another point on an edge of the cover sheet, and / or along the circumference of concentric Triangles, squares, pentagons, etc., to circles or ellipsoids that line up around the point on the surface of the cover sheet. It is inventively preferred if this imaginary line is straight. By definition, an edge marks the end of the surface of the cover sheet.

According to the invention, a preferred direction is to be understood as meaning a direction along the imaginary line of a row of holes.

The holes are preferably round.

The holes of the breadboard preferably have a diameter of 0.1 to 1.25 mm, in particular from 0.1 to 0.75 mm.

The hole spacing is determined from the center of the hole to the center of the adjacent hole along the row of holes. The hole spacing of adjacent holes along the row of holes is preferably in the range of 5 to 20 mm.

It is inventively preferred if along each hole row of the hole pattern all adjacent holes have an equidistant hole spacing. It is again preferred if the amount of the distance between two adjacent holes along one of the two rows of holes 1 or 2 is a product of the distance between two adjacent holes along the respective other row of holes with an integer greater than zero.

The proportion of the holes having the hole markings a to the holes with the hole markings b on the surface of the cover sheet is preferably in the range of 1: 1.4 to 1: 1.7. This ratio is particularly preferably 1: 1.5.

The ratio of the holes with the hole markings a to the holes with the hole markings c on the surface of the cover sheet is preferably in the range of 2.2: 1 to 1.8: 1. More preferably, this ratio is 2 to 1.

The ratio of the holes with the hole markings a to the holes with the hole markings b to the holes with the hole markings c on the surface of the cover sheet is most preferably 2 to 3 to 1.

There is no limit to the way the hole markings are marked. They may be used as visible markers in various shapes (such as square, circle, cross, grid and star) and / or markers of different colors as hole markings. Preferably, markers of different colors, such as red, green and blue, are used as the hole marking. These markers are in turn preferably applied as a border of the hole on the film, for example by printing or gluing. Likewise, tactile markings (haptic markings) can be attached. As haptic markings are located on the hole area localized elevations or subsidence of the film surface, such as embossed or glued or welded nubs, grooves, cones or balls. In this case, each hole identification a, b and c each assign a haptic marking. In particular, such haptic markings are favorable if the consumer wants to place the highlights on areas which are difficult to see even with a mirror, such as e.g. the back of the head.

It is preferable in the present invention that a hole designation sequence "hole mark a / hole mark b / hole mark a" of the hole row 1 and hole mark string "hole mark b / hole mark c / hole mark b" of the immediately following hole row 2 form opposite sides of a quadrangle having no hole in the face thereof with hole marking is none of the inner corner of the corner Rectangle is less than 45 °. The hole marking order reads in the rectangle clockwise or counterclockwise along the circumference "hole mark a / hole mark b / hole mark a / hole mark b / hole mark c / hole mark b". The square formed is preferably a rectangle. It is preferred if at least 80% of the area of the entire perforated grid, particularly preferably at least 90% of the area of the entire perforated grid, is built up from said quadrangles.

It is inventively preferred that the rows of holes do not intersect.

In a specific embodiment, the rows of holes are arranged in parallel. It is preferred if the rows of holes have the same distance from each other. Most preferably, in the context of this particular embodiment, the spacings of the adjacent holes along each row of holes and the distances of the rows of holes are the same.

Examples of sections of cover films with inventive hole grid are the FIGS. 5 and 6 refer to. The hole marking a corresponds to the star * in these figures. The hole marking b corresponds to the plus sign + in these figures. The hole designation c in these figures corresponds to the grid symbol #. In FIG. 5 describes a row of holes a wave motion. The hole rich 1 and 2 are parallel to each other. In FIG. 6 describes a row of holes a straight line. The hole rich 1 and 2 are parallel to each other. The hole designation sequences "hole mark a / hole mark b / hole mark a" and hole mark string "hole mark b / hole mark c / hole mark b" in figures 5 and 6 form the sides of a rectangle, clockwise or counterclockwise along its circumference, the hole marking sequence "Hole mark a / Hole mark b / Hole mark a / Hole mark b / Hole mark c / Hole mark b".

The cover sheets are preferably made of materials compatible with cosmetic color changing agents, such as polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride. It is possible to manufacture the cover film in one layer or in multiple layers, that is to say from two or more superposed film layers. A multilayer embodiment of the cover film preferably consists of two film layers. These film layers are preferably glued, knurled, sewn or welded along the edges. According to a two-layer embodiment, one of the film layers preferably has no prefabricated holes. The other film layer carries the already pre-punched hole pattern. The hole marking can be applied both on the film layer with hole pattern, as well as on the film layer without pre-punched Be mounted hole pattern, the hole markings are preferably mounted on the foil layer with the pre-punched hole pattern.

A second object of the invention is a head covering for covering human hair in the form of a hood, which contains at least one cover sheet of the first subject of the invention. The said cover sheet in particular occupies the part of the hood which comes into contact with the head hair in use.

The hood preferably has the shape of a shuttle or a helmet. Particularly preferred is the helmet shape.

Very particularly preferred is a hood, as in the Fig. 1 to 4 is shown. The hood includes two side parts (1) and (2) and a central part (3) and optionally a screen part (4). These parts are preferably interconnected at their contact points by a welded and / or stitched seam (8) and (9). The seams and the outer edges of the parts (1), (2), (3) and (4) are preferably hemmed with a seam. The seam is preferably made of the material of the outer film. At least the parts (1), (2) and (3) of the hood are made of the (preferably two-ply) cover sheet of the first subject of the invention.
If it is the two-layer embodiment, preferably the outer film layer has a pre-punched hole pattern, the inner film layer has no holes. Both superimposed film layers are connected to each other by the seam of the parts (1), (2) and (3), as well as the other by the seam.
The hood, when pulled over the head, covers the back of the head and has an opening for the face in front (see Fig. 2 , the "front view"). At the upper part of the field of view, if appropriate, the screen part (4) is attached. The outer edge of the parts (1), (2) and (3) and optionally the edge of the screen part are bordered by a seam as described above. The hem can be extended beyond the edge of the hood at the lower part of the visual field and forms the bands (5) and (6) on the right and left with which the hood can be attached to the head by knotting the bands together under the chin. 2 and FIG. 4 show an elastic (7), which along the lower edge of the central part (3) can be incorporated. The elastic band ensures a tight fit of the hood. The hood adapts better with the help of the elastic to different head sizes.

2. B anschließend durch gekennzeichnete Löcher der Kopfbedeckung Haarsträhnen gezogen werden,
3. C auf die Haarsträhnen ein Farbveränderungsmittel aufgetragen und nach einer Einwirkzeit Z1 wieder abgespült wird,
4. D die Kopfbedeckung entfernt wird,

wobei im Schritt B

1. (i) für den Erhalt einer geringen Strähnchendichte die Haarsträhnen überwiegend durch Löcher mit der Lochkennzeichnung c gezogen werden,
2. (ii) für den Erhalt einer mittleren Strähnchendichte die Haarsträhnen überwiegend durch Löcher mit der Lochkennzeichnung a gezogen werden,
3. (iii) für den Erhalt einer hohen Strähnchendichte die Haarsträhnen überwiegend durch Löcher mit der Lochkennzeichnung b gezogen werden.

A third object of the invention is a method for coloring human hair, in which

1. A is covered in a first step, the head hair with a headgear according to the second subject of the invention,
2. B subsequently drawn through marked holes of the headgear strands of hair,
3. C is applied to the hair strands a color-changing agent and rinsed again after a contact time Z1,
4. D the headgear is removed,

wherein in step B

1. (i) in order to obtain a low strand density, the hair strands are predominantly pulled through holes with the hole marking c,
2. (ii) to obtain a middle strand density, the hair strands are predominantly pulled through holes with the hole marking a,
3. (iii) to obtain a high strand density, the hair strands are predominantly pulled through holes with the hole marking b.

By "predominantly" is defined a rate of use of said hole identification combination in which at least 90%, in particular at least 95%, of the possible holes of the selected hole identification combination usable in step B were used and the remainder either unused or used by selecting holes with incorrect hole identification has been.

In step B, fiber bundles or hair strands, for example, are pulled through the holes of the hood with a streak puller.

A sharper contrast transition is achieved when the hair is dry and the color-changing agent is applied to the dry hair in step C.

The highlights are treated in step C either completely or partially with the color change agent. Full treatment will result in completely color changed highlights. In a partial treatment, for example, the fiber tips or other selected regions of the fiber bundle can be selectively nuanced.

The color-changing agent is preferably applied to the selected fiber strands with the hands using suitable protective gloves for complete treatment. In principle, the color-changing agent can also be applied to the highlights provided for shading with an applicator, such as a brush or a brush, in particular if a partial color change is desired.

The reaction time Z1 is preferably 5 to 60 minutes, more preferably 20 to 45 minutes.

The color-changing agent contains at least one color-modifying component in a cosmetic carrier.

The color change agent used in the invention contains a cosmetic carrier. Such carriers are, for example, creams, emulsions, gels or surfactant-containing foaming solutions, such as shampoos, foam aerosols or other preparations which are particularly suitable for use on the hair. But it is also conceivable to integrate the ingredients in a powdered or tablet-like formulation, which is dissolved in water before use. The carriers may in particular be aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic.

An aqueous carrier contains at least 50% by weight of water.

For the purposes of the present invention, aqueous-alcoholic carriers are to be understood as meaning aqueous solutions containing from 3 to 70% by weight of a C ₁ -C ₄ -alcohol, in particular ethanol or isopropanol. The color-changing agents may additionally contain other organic solvents, such as, for example, methoxybutanol, benzyl alcohol, ethyl diglycol or 1,2-propylene glycol. Preference is given to all water-soluble organic solvents.

The compounds of the formulas (DZ1), (DZ3) and (DZ5), which are also known by the names Basic Yellow 87, Basic Orange 31 and Basic Red 51, are very particularly preferred cationic substantive dyes of group (c).

The cationic direct dyes, which are sold under the trademark Arianor ^®, according to the invention are also very particularly preferred cationic direct dyes.

The color changing agents preferably contain the direct dyes in an amount of 0.01 to 20% by weight based on the color change agent ready for use.

Furthermore, the preparations of the invention may also naturally occurring dyes such as henna red, henna neutral, henna black, chamomile, sandalwood, black tea, buckthorn bark, sage, bluewood, madder root, Catechu, Sedre and alkano root are included.

It is not necessary for the oxidation dye precursors or the direct dyes to be in each case homogeneous compounds. Rather, in the compositions according to the invention, due to the production process for the individual dyes, minor amounts of other components may be included, as far as they do not adversely affect the dyeing result or for other reasons, e.g. toxicological, must be excluded.

With regard to further optional components as well as the amounts of these components used, reference is expressly made to the relevant manuals known to the person skilled in the art, eg. B. Kh. Schrader, bases and formulations of the cosmetics, 2nd edition, Hüthig book publishing house, Heidelberg, 1989 , referenced.

In general, an oxidative dyeing can be carried out in the presence of atmospheric oxygen in the presence of oxidation dye precursors. Preferably, however, a chemical oxidizing agent is used, especially if, in addition to the coloring, a whitening effect of the natural pigments of the human hair is desired. This lightening effect may be desired regardless of the staining method. Accordingly, the presence of oxidation dye precursors is not a mandatory requirement for the use of oxidizing agents in the cosmetic compositions of the process according to the invention. The oxidizing agent is in particular hydrogen peroxide and / or at least one addition product thereof, in particular inorganic or organic compounds such as sodium perborate, sodium percarbonate, magnesium percarbonate, sodium percarbamide, polyvinylpyrrolidone · n H ₂ O ₂ (n is a positive integer greater than 0), urea peroxide and Melamine peroxide in question. The actual colorant is prepared by separate storage of the dye precursors and the oxidizing agent immediately before use by mixing. In a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, therefore, the color-changing agent before application of a composition containing in a cosmetic carrier at least one color-changing component, and another A composition containing at least one oxidizing agent mixed in a cosmetic carrier.

The actual (oxidative) hair dye is conveniently prepared immediately prior to use by mixing a separate oxidizer composition with the composition containing the color-changing components, preferably in the weight ratio range of 1 to 4 to 4 to 1, especially 1 to 2 to 2 to 1.

According to the invention, the colorant may also be applied to the hair together with a catalyst which promotes the oxidation of the dye precursors, e.g. by atmospheric oxygen, activated. Such catalysts are e.g. Metal ions, iodides, quinones or certain enzymes. The catalysts can also be used in the presence of an oxidizing agent.

Suitable metal ions are, for example, Zn ²⁺ , Cu ²⁺ , Fe ²⁺ , Fe ³⁺ , Mn ²⁺ , Mn ⁴⁺ , Li ⁺ , Mg ²⁺ , Ca ²⁺ and Al ³⁺ . Particularly suitable are Zn ²⁺ , Cu ²⁺ and Mn ²⁺ . The metal ions can in principle be used in the form of any physiologically acceptable salt or in the form of a complex compound. Preferred salts are the acetates, sulfates, halides, lactates and tartrates. By using these metal salts, both the formation of the dyeing can be accelerated and the color shade can be specifically influenced.

Suitable enzymes include peroxidases, which can significantly enhance the effect of small amounts of hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, such enzymes are suitable according to the invention which directly oxidize the oxidation dye precursors with the aid of atmospheric oxygen, such as, for example, the laccases, or generate small amounts of hydrogen peroxide in situ and thus biocatalytically activate the oxidation of the dye precursors. Particularly suitable catalysts for the oxidation of the dye precursors are the so-called 2-electron oxidoreductases in combination with the specific substrates, eg

• Pyranose oxidase and eg D-glucose or galactose,
• Glucose oxidase and D-glucose,
• Glycerol oxidase and glycerin,

When using oxidizing agents, the ready-to-use composition is conveniently prepared immediately prior to use by mixing a composition containing the oxidizing agent with the composition containing the color-changing components. The resulting ready-to-use hair dye preparation should preferably have a pH in the range of 6 to 12. Particularly preferred is the use of the colorants in a weakly alkaline medium.

For a color change by means of lightening or bleaching of the hair, at least one bleach booster is additionally preferably used in addition to the oxidizing agents.

Bleach boosters are preferably used in bleaching agents for increasing the bleaching action of the oxidizing agent, in particular the hydrogen peroxide.

As bleach amplifiers, it is possible to use compounds which, under perhydrolysis conditions, give aliphatic peroxycarboxylic acids having preferably 1 to 10 C atoms, in particular 2 to 4 C atoms, and / or optionally substituted perbenzoic acid. Suitable substances are those which carry O- and / or N-acyl groups of the stated C atom number and / or optionally substituted benzoyl groups. Preference is given to polyacylated alkylenediamines, in particular tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED), acylated triazine derivatives, in particular 1,5-diacetyl-2,4-dioxohexahydro-1,3,5-triazine (DADHT), acylated glycolurils, in particular tetraacetylglycoluril (TAGU), N- Acylimides, in particular N-nonanoylsuccinimide (NOSI), acylated phenolsulfonates, in particular n-nonanoyl or isononanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (n- or iso-NOBS), carboxylic anhydrides, in particular phthalic anhydride, acylated polyhydric alcohols, in particular triacetin, ethylene glycol diacetate and 2,5-diacetoxy- 2,5-dihydrofuran.

Bleach amplifiers are preferably peroxo compounds. Among the bleach-enhancing peroxy compounds according to the invention there are no addition products of hydrogen peroxide to other components and also not hydrogen peroxide itself. Moreover, the choice of peroxo compounds is subject to no restrictions. Preferred peroxo compounds are peroxydisulfate salts, monopersulfate salts (especially ammonium peroxydisulfate, potassium peroxodisulfate, sodium peroxodisulfate, ammonium monopersulfate, potassium monopersulfate, sodium monopersulfate, potassium peroxydiphosphate) and peroxides (such as barium peroxide, calcium peroxide and magnesium peroxide). Among these peroxo compounds, which can also be used in combination, the inorganic compounds are preferred according to the invention. Particularly preferred are the peroxydisulfates, in particular ammonium peroxydisulfate.

The bleach boosters are contained in the ready-to-use color-change agents used according to the invention preferably in amounts of 5-30% by weight, in particular in amounts of 8-20% by weight.

The color-changing agents of the process of the present invention, when acting as a bleaching agent, contain as preferred alkalizing agent at least one compound selected from ammonia, ammonium, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, carbonates, bicarbonates, hydroxycarbonates, metasilicates and carbamides, as well as Alkali phosphates and alkanolamines such as 2-ethanolamine.

The ready-to-use color-changing agent should preferably have a pH in the range from pH 6 to pH 12, in particular from pH 7.5 to pH 11, in the embodiment as dyeing or bleaching agent.

The color-changing agents may additionally contain all known and commonly used active ingredients and auxiliaries in these fields.

In many cases, the color-changing agents additionally contain at least one surfactant, whereby in principle both anionic and zwitterionic, ampholytic, nonionic and cationic surfactants are suitable. In many cases, however, it has proved to be advantageous to select the surfactants from anionic, zwitterionic or nonionic surfactants.

Preferred nonionic surfactants are alkyl polyglycosides of the general formula R ¹ O- (Z) _{x '} These compounds are characterized by the following parameters.

The alkyl radical R ¹ contains 6 to 22 carbon atoms and may be both linear and branched. Preference is given to primary linear and methyl-branched in the 2-position aliphatic radicals. Such alkyl radicals are, for example, 1-octyl, 1-decyl, 1-lauryl, 1-myristyl, 1-cetyl and 1-stearyl. Particularly preferred are 1-octyl, 1-decyl, 1-lauryl, 1-myristyl. When using so-called "oxo-alcohols" as starting materials, compounds with an odd number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chain predominate.

The alkyl polyglycosides which can be used according to the invention can contain, for example, only one particular alkyl radical R ¹ . Usually, however, these compounds are prepared starting from natural fats and oils or mineral oils. In this case, the alkyl radicals R are mixtures corresponding to the starting compounds or corresponding to the particular work-up of these compounds.

• im wesentlichen aus C₈- und C₁₀-Alkylgruppen,
• im wesentlichen aus C₁₂- und C₁₄-Alkylgruppen,

• consisting essentially of C ₈ - to C ₁₆ -alkyl groups or
• consists essentially of C ₁₂ - to C ₁₆ -alkyl groups.

As sugar building block Z it is possible to use any desired mono- or oligosaccharides. Usually, sugars with 5 or 6 carbon atoms and the corresponding oligosaccharides are used. Such sugars are, for example, glucose, fructose, galactose, arabinose, ribose, xylose, lyxose, allose, altrose, mannose, gulose, idose, talose and Sucrose. Preferred sugar building blocks are glucose, fructose, galactose, arabinose and sucrose; Glucose is particularly preferred.

The alkyl polyglycosides which can be used according to the invention contain on average from 1.1 to 5 sugar units. Alkyl polyglycosides having x values of 1.1 to 1.6 are preferred. Very particular preference is given to alkyl glycosides in which x is 1.1 to 1.4.

In addition to their surfactant action, the alkyl glycosides can also serve to improve the fixation of fragrance components on the hair. The person skilled in the art will therefore prefer to use this substance class as a further constituent of the preparations according to the invention in the event that an effect of the perfume oil on the hair which exceeds the duration of the hair treatment is desired.

The alkoxylated homologs of said alkyl polyglycosides can also be used according to the invention. These homologs may contain on average up to 10 ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide units per alkyl glycoside unit.

Furthermore, zwitterionic surfactants can be used, in particular as cosurfactants. Zwitterionic surfactants are surface-active compounds which carry at least one quaternary ammonium group and at least one -COO ^(-) or -SO ₃ ^(-) group in the molecule. Particularly suitable zwitterionic surfactants are the so-called betaines such as N-alkyl-N, N-dimethylammonium glycinates, for example cocoalkyl dimethylammonium glycinate, N-acylaminopropyl N, N-dimethylammonium glycinates, for example cocoacylaminopropyl-dimethylammonium glycinate, and Alkyl-3-carboxylmethyl-3-hydroxyethyl-imidazolines each having 8 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl or acyl group and Kokosacylaminoethylhydroxyethylcarboxymethylglycinat. A preferred zwitterionic surfactant is the fatty acid amide derivative known by the INCI name Cocamidopropyl Betaine.

Also particularly suitable as co-surfactants are ampholytic surfactants. Ampholytic surfactants are understood as meaning those surface-active compounds which, apart from a C ₈ -C ₁₈ -alkyl or acyl group in the molecule, contain at least one free amino group and at least one -COOH or -SO ₃ H group and are capable of forming internal salts. Examples of suitable ampholytic surfactants are N-alkylglycines, N-alkylpropionic acids, N-alkylaminobutyric acids, N-alkyliminodipropionic acids, N-hydroxyethyl-N-alkylamidopropylglycines, N-alkyltaurines, N-alkylsarcosines, 2-alkylaminopropionic acids and alkylaminoacetic acids each having about 8 to 18 C Atoms in the alkyl group. Particularly preferred ampholytic surfactants are N-cocoalkylaminopropionate, cocoacylaminoethylaminopropionate and C _12-18 acylsarcosine.

According to the invention, the cationic surfactants used are, in particular, those of the quaternary ammonium compound type, the esterquats and the amidoamines.

Preferred quaternary ammonium compounds are ammonium halides, especially chlorides and bromides, such as alkyltrimethylammonium chlorides, dialkyldimethylammonium chlorides and trialkylmethylammonium chlorides, e.g. For example, cetyltrimethylammonium chloride, stearyltrimethylammonium chloride, distearyldimethylammonium chloride, lauryldimethylammonium chloride, lauryldimethylbenzylammonium chloride and tricetylmethylammonium chloride, and the imidazolium compounds known under the INCI names Quaternium-27 and Quaternium-83. The long alkyl chains of the above-mentioned surfactants preferably have 10 to 18 carbon atoms.

Esterquats are known substances which contain both at least one ester function and at least one quaternary ammonium group as a structural element. Preferred ester quats are quaternized ester salts of fatty acids with triethanolamine, quaternized ester salts of fatty acids with diethanolalkylamines and quaternized ester salts of fatty acids with 1,2-dihydroxypropyldialkylamines. Such products are marketed under the trade names Stepantex® ^{®, ®} and Dehyquart® Armocare® ^®. The products Armocare ^® VGH-70, a N, N-bis (2-palmitoyloxyethyl) dimethylammonium chloride, as well as Dehyquart ^® F-75 and Dehyquart ^® AU-35 are examples of such esterquats.

The alkylamidoamines are usually prepared by amidation of natural or synthetic fatty acids and fatty acid cuts with dialkylaminoamines. An inventively particularly suitable compound from this group of substances under the name Tegoamid ^® S 18 commercial stearamidopropyl dimethylamine is.

Further cationic surfactants which can be used according to the invention are the quaternized protein hydrolysates.

Also suitable in the present invention are cationic silicone oils such as the commercially available products Q2-7224 (manufactured by Dow Corning, a stabilized trimethylsilylamodimethicone), Dow Corning 929 emulsion (containing a hydroxylamino-modified silicone, also referred to as amodimethicones), SM-2059 (Manufacturer: General Electric), SLM-55067 (manufacturer: Wacker) and Abil ^® -Quat 3270 and 3272 (manufacturer: Th Goldschmidt; diquaternary polydimethylsiloxanes, quaternium-80.).

An example of a suitable cationic surfactant quaternary sugar derivative is the commercially available product Glucquat ^® 100 is, according to INCI nomenclature a "lauryl methyl Gluceth-10 Hydroxypropyl Dimonium Chloride".

The compounds used as surfactant with alkyl groups may each be uniform substances. However, it is generally preferred to use native vegetable or animal raw materials in the production of these substances, so that substance mixtures having different alkyl chain lengths depending on the respective raw material are obtained.

In the case of the surfactants which are adducts of ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide with fatty alcohols or derivatives of these addition products, both products with a "normal" homolog distribution and those with a narrow homolog distribution can be used. By "normal" homolog distribution are meant mixtures of homologs obtained in the reaction of fatty alcohol and alkylene oxide using alkali metals, alkali metal hydroxides or alkali metal alcoholates as catalysts. Narrowed homolog distributions are obtained when, for example, hydrotalcites, alkaline earth metal salts of ether carboxylic acids, alkaline earth metal oxides, hydroxides or alkoxides are used as catalysts. The use of products with narrow homolog distribution may be preferred.
