- 9. A hair care composition according to claim 1, wherein the frizz control active is selected from the group consisting of the dimethicone copolyols having an HLB value of about 12 or less, the PEG-modified triglycerides wherein the sum of x+y+z is equal to from about 20 to 30, and the PEG-modified glyceryl fatty acid esters having an average n value of from about 15 to about 30, and mixtures thereof.
- 10. A hair care composition according to claim 1, wherein the composition comprises from about 2% to about 10%, by weight of the composition, of the frizz control active.
- 11. A hair care composition according to claim 1, wherein the composition is a leave-on composition.
- 12. A hair care composition according to claim 1 further comprising a cationic conditioning polymer.
- 13. A hair care composition according to claim 12, wherein the cationic conditioning polymer is selected from the group consisting of cationic polymers of saccharides, cationic copolymers of saccharides and mixtures thereof.
- 14. A hair care composition according to claim 1, wherein the composition further comprises a hydrophobically modified hydroxyalkyl cellulose thickener.
