Abstract:
There is disclosed a method of producing a coating on an external surface of individual mammalian hair fibers, the method comprising (a) applying on the external surface of the individual fibers, an oil-in-water emulsion including an amino-silicone film forming pre-polymer, so as to form an at least partially cured amino-silicone film; and (b) applying an aqueous dispersion on said amino-silicone film, to produce an overlying, optionally pigmented, polymeric film that coats said at least partially cured amino-silicone film; wherein the aqueous dispersion contains: (i) a polymeric material having neutralized acid moieties; and optionally (ii) a plurality of pigment particles, at least partially enveloped by the polymeric material, and dispersed within said aqueous dispersion. Suitable coating or coloring compositions and kits including the same are also disclosed, as well as methods for preparing the compositions or removing films formed therewith.
