Description




The invention relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, comprising, in a medium which is suitable for dyeing, at least one cationic direct dye of given formula and at least one specific thickening polymer. The invention also relates to the dyeing processes and dyeing devices, i.e., kits, using the composition.




Two types of dyeing may be distinguished in the haircare sector. The first is semi-permanent or temporary dyeing, or direct dyeing, which uses dyes capable of giving the hair a natural coloration, a more or less pronounced color change which may withstand shampooing several times. These dyes are also known as direct dyes; they can be used with or without an oxidizing agent. In the presence of an oxidizing agent, the aim is to obtain lightening dyeing. Lightening dyeing is carried out by applying a mixture, prepared at the time of use, of a direct dye and an oxidizing agent to the hair, and makes it possible in particular to obtain, by lightening the melanin in the hair, an advantageous effect such as a unified color in the case of grey hair, or to bring out the color in the case of naturally pigmented hair.




The second is permanent dyeing or oxidation dyeing. This is carried out with so-called “oxidation” dyes comprising oxidation dye precursors and couplers. Oxidation dye precursors, commonly known as “oxidation bases”, are compounds which are initially colorless or weakly colored which develop their dyeing power on the hair in the presence of oxidizing agents added at the time of use, leading to the formation of colored compounds and dyes. The formation of these colored compounds and dyes results either from an oxidative condensation of the “oxidation bases” with themselves or from an oxidative condensation of the oxidation bases with coloration-modifying compounds commonly known as “couplers”, which are generally present in the dye compositions used in oxidation dyeing.




It is known practice to add direct dyes to oxidation dyes in order to vary the shades obtained with the said oxidation dyes or to enrich the shades with glints. Among the cationic direct dyes available in the sector of dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, the compounds whose structure is developed in the text hereinbelow are already known; nevertheless, these dyes lead to colorations which have characteristics that could still be improved, such as the intensity, the homogeneity of the color distributed along the fiber, in which case the coloration is said to be too selective, and the staying power, in terms of the resistance to the various attacking factors to which the hair may be subjected (light, bad weather, shampooing).




After considerable research conducted in this matter, the present inventors have discovered that it is possible to obtain novel compositions for dyeing keratin fibers which are capable of giving more intense and yet unselective colorations which show good resistance to the various attacking factors to which the hair may be subjected, by combining at least one specific thickening polymer with at least one known cationic direct dye of the prior art, which have the respective formulae defined below. This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.




A first subject of the present invention is thus a composition for dyeing keratin fibers, and in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, containing, in a medium which is suitable for dyeing, (i) at least one cationic direct dye whose structure corresponds to formulae (I) defined below, characterized in that it also contains (ii) at least one specific thickening polymer.
