Patent ID: 8241616

Claim:
A hair styling composition comprising (a) one or more fully soluble polymer comprising, as polymerized units, (i) 30% to 75% by weight, based on the weight of said polymer, one or more monomer that has refractive index of 1.490 or higher, (ii) 1% to 30% by weight, based on the weight of said polymer, one or more acid-functional monomer, and (iii) 5% to 69% by weight, based on the weight of said polymer, one or more additional monomer, (b) solvent-propellant mixture comprising (i) 0% to 75% by weight, based on the weight of said solvent-propellant mixture, propellant, (ii) 5% to 95% by weight, based on the weight of said solvent-propellant mixture, volatile organic solvent, and (iii) 0% to 50% by weight, based on the weight of said solvent-propellant mixture, water, (c) neutralizer, wherein the mole ratio of said neutralizer to the acid-functional groups on said polymer (a) is from 0:1 to 1.1:1, and (d) one or more adjuvants, wherein the ratio of the total weight of all adjuvants to the weight of said polymer (a) is from 0:1 to 1.4:1, wherein the amount of said polymer (a) is 1% to 10% by weight based on the sum of the weights of said polymer (a) and said solvent-propellant mixture (b), wherein the amount of said solvent-propellant mixture (b) is 90% to 99% by weight based on the sum of the weights of said polymer (a) and said solvent-propellant mixture (b).
