Abstract:
A hair straightening or hair styling composition comprising: (i) about 0.1 to about 70 wt. % of at least one hydroxy ketone, dihydroxy ketone or combinations thereof; (ii) about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one organic or inorganic base; (iii) optionally, about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one functional polymer; (iv) optionally, about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one diol, polyol, sugar, or combinations thereof; (v) optionally, about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one reducing agent; and (vi) about 40 to about 95 wt. % of at least one carrier; and wherein, the composition has a pH of about 5 to about 11. This application provides a process for preparing such hair styling or hair straightening composition and a method of use thereof.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of straightening or styling hair, the method comprising:\n (a) washing hair tresses with shampoo; (b) eliminating or reducing the moisture of hair tresses of step (a); (c) applying a hair straightening or styling composition comprising: (i) about 0.1 to about 70 wt. % of at least one \u03b1-hydroxyacetone, \u03b2-hydroxyacetone, dihydroxy acetone, 4-hydroxy butanone, 1-hydroxy-2-butanone and combinations thereof; (ii) about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one organic or inorganic base; (iii) optionally about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one functional polymer; (iv) optionally about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one diol, polyol, sugar, or combinations thereof; (v) optionally about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of at least one reducing agent; and (vi) about 40 to about 95 wt. % of at least one carrier, wherein said composition has a pH of about 5 to about 11, to the dried or damp hair of step (b); (d) leaving the treated hair for about 15 to 30 minutes for penetration; (e) hot air drying the treated hair of step (d) by mechanically straightening with a slow uniform motion from root to tip; (f) ironing the hair resultant of step (e) for at least 4-8 times using flat iron pre-heated to 375-450\u00b0 F.; and (g) allowing the hair tresses as of step (f) to remain as such for at least 15 to 20 minutes to obtain straightened or styled hair.
