Composition and process for de-coloring dyed hair
First Claim
1. A composition for decoloring dyed hair, consisting of two Compositions A and B being kept separately until application, whereby the Composition A comprises in an aqueous carrier about 5% to about 50% by weight, calculated to its total composition of hydrozxymethane sulfinic acid and/or an alkali salt thereof, and has an alkaline pH-value between 7.5 and 12.5, and the Composition B is present as an aqueous emulsion, containing at least one fatty or oily substance, at least one water-soluble emulsifier, and at least one perfume component, whereby a ready-to-use product with a pH-value between 2.5 and 5 is obtained upon admixing equal parts of both Compositions.

Abstract
A composition for the decoloration of dyed hair consists of an alkaline Composition A containing at least one reducing agent and having a pH-value between 7.5 and 12.5, and a Composition B stored separately therefrom until application, having a highly acidic pH-value of 1 to 4 and containing at least one oily or fatty substance, at least one water-soluble emulsifier and at least one perfume, being present as an emulsion. Both Compositions are admixed immediately prior to application, whereby a product with a pH-value of 2.5 to 5.0 is obtained. This product can be distributed evenly on the hair without dripping, has an agreeable smell by the perfume contained and stabilized in Composition B, and effects even decoloration of the dyed hair.

- 7. A process for decoloring dyed hair, wherein a composition having a pH-value of 2.5 to 5.0, and being obtained by admixing two Compositions A and B, stored separately prior to application, is applied to wet hair, whereby the Composition A contains at least one reducing agent in an aqueous carrier and has an alkaline pH-value between 7.5 and 12.5, and the Composition B is present as an aqueous emulsion, containing at least one fatty or oily substance and at least one perfume component and having an acidic pH-value of 1 to 4, the mixture then being left to process for about five to thirty minutes, subsequently being rinsed out of the hair, the hair optionally being shampooed and dried.
