- 9. The process of claim 8 wherein solution (a) also includes another coupler.
- 10. A process for dyeing keratinic fibers comprising applying to said fibers an effective amount of an oxidation hair dye composition comprising an aqueous or hydroalcoholic solution, wherein the alcoholic component is 1 to 40 weight percent of said solution, of a mixture of
- (a) at least one coupler having the formula ##STR37## wherein R is hydrogen, alkyl or halogen; and R' is hydrogen, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, piperidinoalkyl, acetyl or carbethoxy; (b) at least one oxidation base selected from the group consisting of (i) an oxidation base having the formula ##STR38## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 each independently are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, halogen and alkoxy; and Y is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl and --NR.sub.5 R.sub.6 wherein R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 each independently are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, carbamylalkyl, mesylaminoalkyl, aminoalkyl, acylaminoalkyl, sulfoalkyl, morpholinoalkyl and piperidinoalkyl, the said alkyl radicals containing 1-4 carbon atoms, and (ii) a heterocyclic compound selected from the group consisting of 2,5-diamino pyridine and 2-hydroxy-5-amino pyridine, said oxidation base being in the form of the free base or in the form of an acid addition salt thereof; and (c) an oxidizing agent, said components (a) and (b) being admixed at a point in time just before said fibers are dyed and component (c) being admixed with the resulting mixture of components (a) and (b) or with either of components (a) and (b) prior to admixture of components (a) and (b).
- 11. The process of claim 10 which includes permitting the admixture of components (a), (b) and (c) to remain in contact with said fibers for a period of time ranging from 10 minutes to 30 minutes and thereafter rinsing the said fibers, shampooing the said fibers and drying the said fibers.
