Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibers, comprising at least one direct dye, at least one bioheteropolysaccharide, at least one cationic surfactant and at least one amphoteric or non-ionic surfactant. Such a composition makes it possible to obtain compositions that allow intense and relatively nonselective shades to be obtained, leaving the hair with good cosmetic properties.

Claims

1. A composition for dyeing keratin fibers, comprising

at least one direct dye,

at least one bioheteropolysaccharide,

at least one cationic surfactant, and

at least one amphoteric surfactant,

wherein,

the at least one bioheteropolysaccharide is chosen from sclerotium gums,

the at least one amphoteric surfactant is chosen from betaines, and

the weight ratio of the at least one cationic surfactant to the at least one bioheteropolysaccharide is greater than 1.

2. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one direct dye is chosen from neutral, acidic, or cationic nitrobenzene direct dyes, neutral, acidic, or cationic azo direct dyes, quinone direct dyes, azine direct dyes, triarylmethane direct dyes, indoamine direct dyes, and natural direct dyes.

3. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one direct dye is present in an amount ranging from 0.001% to 20% by weight of the total weight of the composition.

4. The composition according to claim 3, wherein the at least one direct dye is present in an amount ranging from 0.005% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

5. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one bioheteropolysaccharide is present in an amount ranging from 0.01% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

6. The composition according to claim 5, wherein the at least one bioheteropolysaccharide is present in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 4% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

7. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one cationic surfactant is chosen from primary, secondary, or tertiary fatty amine salts, quaternary ammonium salts, and mixtures thereof.

8. The composition according to claim 5, wherein the at least one cationic surfactant is chosen from primary, secondary, or tertiary fatty amine salts, quaternary ammonium salts, and mixtures thereof.

9. The composition according to claim 5, wherein the at least one cationic surfactant is chosen from behenyltrimethylammonium chloride, cetyltrimethylammonium chloride, quaternium-83, quaternium-87, behenylamidopropyl-2,3-dihydroxypropyldimethylammonium chloride, palmitylamidopropyltrimethylammonium chloride, and stearamidopropyldimethylamine.

10. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one cationic surfactant is present in an amount ranging from 0.01% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

11. The composition according to claim 10, wherein the least one cationic surfactant is present in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 4% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

12. The composition according to claim 1, wherein the at least one amphoteric surfactant is chosen from alkylbetains, alkylamidoalkylbetains, and coamphodiacetate.

14. The composition according to claim 13, wherein the at least one amphoteric surfactant is present in an amount ranging from 5% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

15. The composition according to claim 1, further comprising at least one oxidation base, at least one coupler, and/or mixtures thereof.

16. The composition according to claim 1, further comprising at least one oxidizing agent.

17. A process for dyeing keratin fibers comprising applying to said keratin fibers a dyeing composition comprising

at least one direct dye,

at least one bioheteropolysaccharide,

at least one cationic surfactant, and

at least one amphoteric surfactant,

for a period of time sufficient to develop a desired coloration,

wherein

the at least one bioheteropolysaccharide is chosen from sclerotium gums,
