Abstract:
An atomizible leave-on hair care composition comprising:(i) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a cationic crosslinked polymeric conditioning agent comprising the monomer units (A).sub.m (B).sub.n (C).sub.p and a crosslinking agent which comprises from about 1 ppm to about 10,000 ppm of the polymeric conditioning agent, wherein:(A) is a dialkylaminoalkyl acrylate monomer or a quaternary ammonium or acid addition salt thereof;(B) is a dialkylaminoalkyl methacrylate monomer or a quaternary ammonium or acid addition salt thereof;(C) is a nonionic monomer polymerizable with (A) or (B);m, n, and p are independently zero or greater, but at least one of m or n is one or greater;(ii) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a salt comprising a mixture of monomeric cations and anions; and(iii) from about 0.0001% to about 0.05% of at least one polyalkylene glycol corresponding to the structure ##STR6## wherein R is H or CH.sub.3 and r is an integer from about 2000 to about 25,000;(iv) from about 60% to about 99.7999%, by weight, of a polar solvent selected from the group consisting of water, C.sub.2 -C.sub.3 monohydric alkanols, and mixtures thereof;wherein the weight ratio of said cationic crosslinked polymeric conditioning agent to said salt is from about 1:10 to about 25:1; and wherein the viscosity of the composition is from about 10 cP to about 500 cP.
