Description
[0001] The present invention is related to an aerosol hair styling
composition for keratin fibres especially for hair.
[0002] Aerosol hair styling compositions have been widely used
either as a spray or as a foam. In principal they comprise hair
fixing polymers in an aqueous or aqueous alcoholic medium together
with a propellant. Many fixing polymers have been suggested in the
literature either synthetic or natural origin. Natural polymers so
far suggested do not satisfy the expectations of consumers in terms
of hair feel and hold of hair style for a long time and, therefore,
overwhelmingly synthetic polymers are used.
[0003] The present inventors have surprisingly found out that an
aerosol composition comprising natural starch in an aqueous,
aqueous-alcoholic or alcoholic medium has excellent hair styling
and restyling benefits together with excellent volumizing and
bodifying effects. The hair feels natural upon touching and looks
mattified.
[0004] Thus, the object of the present invention is an aerosol
composition for keratin fibres especially for hair based on an
aqueous, aqueous-alcoholic or alcoholic medium comprising at least
one natural starch and at least one propellant.
[0005] Another object of the present invention is the use of an
aerosol composition based on an aqueous, aqueous-alcoholic or
alcoholic medium comprising at least one natural starch and at
least one propellant for styling and restyling keratin fibres
especially hair.
[0006] Still another subject of the present invention is a process
for styling keratin fibres especially hair wherein an aerosol
composition based on an aqueous, aqueous-alcoholic or alcoholic
medium comprising at least one natural starch and at least
propellant is applied onto wet and/or dry hair and hair is styled
without rinsing off the composition.
[0007] With the term styling it is meant that the hair is freshly
styled. With the term restyling it is meant that hair is already
styled with an aqueous, aqueous-alcoholic or alcoholic composition
of the present invention and after lapse of certain period of time
a new style is given without using further composition of the
present invention.
[0008] Thus, further object of the present invention is a process
for restyling hair wherein keratin fibres especially hair already
styled with an aerosol composition based on an aqueous,
aqueous-alcoholic or alcoholic medium comprising at least one
natural starch and at least propellant is with or without wetting a
new style is given.
[0009] Compositions of the present invention comprise at least one
natural starch at a concentration of 0.1 to 25%, preferably 1.5 to
20%, more preferably 2.5 to 15 and most preferably 4 to 15% by
weight calculated to total composition excluding propellant. Within
the meaning of the present invention any natural starch is
suitable. Preferred are wheat, rice, potato, corn starches. Most
preferred is rice starch.
[0010] Compositions of the present invention comprises at least one
propellant at a concentration of 5 to 60%, preferably 5 to 50% more

ethane or tetrafluoroethane or their mixtures with each other,

mentioned propellants. Preferred are lower alkanes such as propane,

with DME at a alkane to DME weight ratio 10:1 to 1:10.
