20150037271 | Methods for Fixing Hair and Skin - Compositions, kits, and methods for repairing bonds, for example, disulfide bonds, in hair or on the skin are disclosed. The compositions provide improved conditioning benefit for dry hair or moisturize the skin. The compositions also provide a long lasting moisturized feel and smooth feel to the skin or hair, without feeling greasy. The compositions contain one or more compounds that covalently crosslink at least two thiol groups in the hair or on the skin. Use of the crosslinking compositions prevents reversion of the repaired bonds to their reduced (thiol) state, for at least one week, one month, six months, or one year, after a single application of the composition. Improved methods of styling hair, for example permanent hair waving, hair curling, and hair straightening are also provided. | 02-05-2015 |
20150037270 | Compositions and Kits for Hair and Skin - Compositions, kits, and methods for repairing bonds, for example, disulfide bonds, in hair or on the skin are disclosed. The compositions provide improved conditioning benefit for dry hair or moisturize the skin. The compositions also provide a long lasting moisturized feel and smooth feel to the skin or hair, without feeling greasy. The compositions contain one or more compounds that covalently crosslink at least two thiol groups in the hair or on the skin. Use of the crosslinking compositions prevents reversion of the repaired bonds to their reduced (thiol) state, for at least one week, one month, six months, or one year, after a single application of the composition.

20150034119 | Hair Color Smoothing Compositions and Methods - Compositions, kits, and methods for rebuilding the disulfide bonds in hair that is damaged due to a hair coloring treatment are disclosed. The compositions contain one or more compounds that covalently crosslink at least two thiol groups in the hair. The compositions may be applied subsequent to a hair coloring treatment or simultaneously with a hair coloring treatment. Under normal hair washing conditions, the covalent crosslinks formed are not succeptable to reduction or hydrolysis. Use of the crosslinking compositions prevent the reversion of the hair's disulfide bonds to its reduced state, for at least one week, preferably at least three months, more preferably at least one year, most preferably at least greater than one year, after at least one application of the composition. | 02-05-2015 |
20140102469 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR BONDING SILICONE POLYMERS TO HAIR AND NAILS - Methods for covalently binding a silicone polymer to hair or nails using UV light, a catalyst, a reactive solution, and compositions related thereto. The methods can include synthesizing a photo-reactive silicone and bonding the photo-reactive silicone polymer to hair, nails, or keratin. The methods can also include applying a vinyl-containing silicone polymer and a catalyst, or an aldehyde functionalized silicone polymer and reactive composition, to covalently bond the silicone polymer to hair, nails, or keratin. An advantage of covalently bonding silicone polymer to hair or nails can be that the silicone polymer add strengthens and shine to hair and nails, but are more resistant to washings with soap and shampoo than non-covalently bound silicone polymers. | 04-17-2014 |
