Abstract:
A device for temporarily coloring hair, said device comprisingan aerosol container with a foam dispenser; anda foamable colored gel containing from 35 to 98 percent by weight water; at least one gel-forming thickener that provides a yield point to the gel; at least one inorganic pigment; at least one film-forming, hair-fixing polymer; at least one foam-generating surfactant and at least one propellant; wherein said at least one gel-forming thickener is present in the gel in a concentration such that the gel has a sufficiently reduced viscosity so that foaming of the gel is possible and the yield point is at least large enough so that settling of the pigment is prevented, said yield point being at least 3 Pascal, measured with a Haake rotation viscometer RV 12, measuring system PKV-0.5, at 30.degree. C. and a linearly increasing shear rate of 0 to 100 s.sup.-1.
