Benefits of technology

[0011]According to a second aspect, the present invention relates to the use of a hair care composition, according to the first aspect, for protecting hair and reducing hair damage upon treatment of hair by heat.

Problems solved by technology

However, hair are sensitive to temperature and treating hair using heat generating hair care appliances may alter the structure of hair fibers and, therefore, may damage hair.
Particularly, repeated treatments using a heat generating hair care appliance at regular intervals increase the risk of damaging hair.
However, even if these compositions may reduce in some extent hair damage, these compositions are usually not suitable for reducing hair damage induced upon treatment by heat.
In some cases, such compositions may even contribute to damaging hair, when applying in conjunction with a treatment of hair using a heat generating appliance, because they comprise components degrading under high temperature.

Embodiment Construction

[0016]According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a process for reducing hair damage upon treatment of hair by heat comprising the steps of:[0017]providing a hair care composition comprising a heat-stable silicone material and a cosmetically acceptable carrier;[0018]applying onto hair a sufficient amount of hair care composition for treating hair;[0019]providing a heat generating hair care appliance;[0020]treating hair using the heat generating hair care appliance for a sufficient amount of time.

[0021]The inventors have surprisingly found that applying a hair care composition comprising a heat-stable silicone material before treating hair using a heat generating hair care appliance allows protecting hair against any damage that may occur upon treatment by heat. Indeed, heat generating hair care appliances, and particularly hot surface hair care appliances, may generate temperature above 50° C. or even 100° C. Such high temperature may alter the structure of hair fi...

Abstract

A process for reducing hair damage upon treatment of hair by heat comprising the steps of providing a hair care composition comprising a heat-stable silicone material, applying said composition onto hair, providing a heat generating hair care appliance, and treating hair using said appliance; use and kit thereof.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a process for reducing hair damage upon treatment of hair by heat comprising the steps of providing a hair care composition comprising a heat-stable silicone material, applying said composition onto hair, providing a heat generating hair care appliance, and treating hair using said appliance. According to second and third aspects, the invention relates to the uses of said composition and said heat-stable silicone material. According a fourth aspect, the invention relates to a kit comprising said hair care composition and said appliance. Said processes are useful for treating hair, such as drying and / or styling hair, by heat while protecting hair and / or reducing hair damage that may occur upon treatment of hair by heat.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Heat generating hair care appliances, such as hot air hair care appliances and hot surface hair care appliances, are commonly used for drying and / ...
