Abstract:
Formulations, kits, and methods for rebuilding the disulfide bonds in keratin found in hair, skin, or nails. Hair that is damaged due to a hair coloring treatment and/or other reducing treatment, such as during a permanent wave, can be treated with the formulations containing one or more active agents. The formulations may be applied subsequent to a hair coloring treatment or simultaneously with a hair coloring treatment. Use of the active agent formulations during a permanent wave treatment prevents the reversion of the hair to its previous state, for at least one week, preferably at least three months, more preferably at least one year, most preferably greater than one year, after one or more than one application of the formulation. Application of the active agent formulation to skin or nails can help repair damaged disulfide bonds due to natural wear and tear or natural aging.

Claim (Index 30):
A method for bleaching hair comprising:\n (a) providing bleach powder and a developer; (b) mixing the developer and bleach powder to form a bleaching formulation having an alkaline pH; (c) providing an aqueous active agent formulation comprising an active agent in a concentration range of 1 wt % to 15 wt %, wherein the active agent is a compound comprising two carboxylic acid groups, and wherein the compound comprises an \u03b1-\u03b2-unsaturated carbonyl-containing group, wherein the carbonyl-containing group is one of the two carboxylic acid groups, (d) mixing the bleaching formulation with the active agent formulation to provide a mixture; and (e) applying the mixture to the hair.
