Description
The present invention relates to a composition for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, comprising at least two oxidation bases which are different from each other in combination with a suitably selected indole coupler, and to a dyeing process using this composition with an oxidizing agent.
It is known to dye keratin fibers, and in particular human hair, with dye compositions containing oxidation dye precursors, in particular ortho- or para-phenylenediamines, ortho- or para-aminophenols, and heterocyclic compounds such as diaminopyrazole derivatives, which are generally referred to as oxidation bases. The oxidation dye precursors, or oxidation bases, are colorless or weakly colored compounds which, when combined with oxidizing products, may give rise to colored compounds and dyes by a process of oxidative condensation.
It is also known that the shades obtained with these oxidation bases may be varied by combining them with couplers or coloration modifiers, the latter being chosen in particular from aromatic meta-diamines, meta-aminophenols, meta-diphenols and certain heterocyclic compounds such as indole derivatives and in particular 4-hydroxyindole. The variety of molecules used as oxidation bases and couplers makes it possible to obtain a wide range of colors.
The so-called "permanent" coloration obtained by means of these oxidation dyes should highly preferably moreover satisfy a certain number of requirements. Thus, it should highly preferably have no toxicological drawbacks and should highly preferebly allow shades of the desired intensity to be obtained and have good resistance to external agents (light, inclement weather, washing, permanent waving, perspiration and friction).
The dyes should highly preferably also allow white hairs to be covered and, lastly, they should highly preferably be as unselective as possible, that is to say that they should highly preferably allow the smallest possible differences in coloration to be produced over the entire length of the same keratin fiber, which may indeed be differently sensitized (i.e. damaged) between its tip and its root.
Compositions for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers in an alkaline or acidic medium containing an oxidation base such as para-phenylenediamine or para-aminophenol, in combination with a heterocyclic coupler such as, for example, 4-hydroxyindole, have already been proposed, in particular in patent applications DE 3,031,709 and FR 2,664,304. Such compositions make it possible to achieve varied ranges of shades depending on the nature of the oxidation bases chosen; however, they are not entirely satisfactory, in particular from the point of view of the resistance of the colorations obtained to the various attacking factors to which the hair may be subjected and, in particular, to light.
The inventors have discovered that it is possible to obtain novel dyes by combining at least two suitably selected different oxidation bases and a suitably selected indole coupler, these dyes being capable of giving rise to intense colorations in varied shades, which are quite unselective and particularly resistant, especially with respect to light, shampooing and permanent-waving. This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.
The subject of the invention is thus a composition for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers, and in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, characterized in that it comprises, in a medium which is suitable for dyeing:
a) at least two oxidation bases which are different from each other,
b) at least one indole coupler, said indole coupler being of the formula (I), and/or at least one acid addition salt thereof: ##STR1## in which: R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl radical,

X represents a hydrogen or halogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.18 alkoxy or acetylamino radical.
The oxidation dyeing composition in accordance with the invention makes it possible to obtain colorations in varied shades, which are quite unselective and have excellent properties of resistance both to atmospheric agents such as light and inclement weather and to perspiration and the various treatments to which the hair may be subjected (shampooing, permanent-waving). These properties are particularly noteworthy, especially with respect to the resistance of the colorations obtained to light, shampooing and permanent-waving operations.

The appropriate medium for the dyeing (or the support) generally consists of water or of a mixture of water and at least one organic solvent to solubilize the compounds which would not be sufficiently soluble in water. Organic solvents which may be mentioned, for example, are C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 lower alkanols such as ethanol and isopropanol; glycerol; glycols and glycol ethers such as 2-butoxyethanol, propylene glycol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether and monoethyl ether, as well as aromatic alcohols such as benzyl alcohol or phenoxyethanol, similar products and mixtures thereof.
The solvents may be present in proportions preferably of approximately from 1 to 40% by weight relative to the total weight of the dye composition, and even more preferably of approximately from 5 to 30% by weight.
The pH of the dye composition in accordance with the invention is generally approximately from 3 to 12 and even more preferably approximately from 5 to 11. It may be adjusted to the desired value using acidifying or basifying agents usually used in the dyeing of keratin fibers.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the dyeing process according to the invention, the dye composition described above is mixed, at the time of use, with an oxidizing composition containing, in a medium which is suitable for dyeing, at least one oxidizing agent present in an amount which is sufficient to develop a coloration. The mixture obtained is then applied to the keratin fibers and is left in place for 3 to 50 minutes approximately, preferably 5 to 30 minutes approximately, after which the fibers are rinsed, washed with shampoo, rinsed again and dried.
The oxidizing agent present in the oxidizing composition as defined above may be chosen from the oxidizing agents conventionally used for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers, and among which mention may be made of hydrogen peroxide, urea peroxide, alkali metal bromates and persalts such as perborates and persulphates.

EXAMPLES
Examples 1 to 4 of Dyeing in an Alkaline Medium
The following dye compositions in accordance with the invention were prepared (contents in grams):
Each dye composition was mixed, at the time of use, with an equal weight amount of 20-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (6% by weight).
Each resulting composition had a pH of approximately 10.2, and was applied for 30 minutes to locks of natural or permanent-waved grey hair containing 90% white hairs. The locks of hair were then rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then dried.
The locks of hair were dyed in the shades featured in the table below:
Example 5 of Dying in an Acidic Medium
The following dye composition in accordance with the invention was prepared (contents in grams):
The dye composition was mixed, at the time of use, with an equal weight amount of 20-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (6% by weight), the pH of which had been adjusted to between 1 and 1.5 with 2.5 g of orthophosphoric acid per 100 g of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution.
The resulting composition had a pH of 6.5, and was applied for 30 minutes to locks of natural or permanent-waved grey hair containing 90% white hairs. The locks of hair were then rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then dried.
The locks of hair were dyed in the shades featured in the table below:
Comparative Example 6
The following dye compositions were prepared (contents in grams):
Compositions A1 and A2 do not form part of the invention.
Composition A3 is in accordance with the invention.
Each dye composition was mixed, at the time of use, with an equal weight amount of 20-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (6% by weight).
Each resulting composition had a pH of about 10.2, and was applied for 30 minutes to locks of natural grey hair containing 90% white hairs. The locks of hair were then rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then dried.
The color of the locks was then evaluated in the Munsell system using a Minolta CM 2002 calorimeter.
According to the Munsell notation, a color is defined by the expression HV/C in which the three parameters respectively denote the shade or Hue (H), the intensity or Value (V) and the purity or Chromaticity (C), the oblique line in this expression simply being a convention and not indicating a ratio.
The locks of hair thus dyed were then subjected to a test of resistance to washing (Ahiba-Texomat machine).
To do this, the locks of hair were placed in a basket which is immersed in a solution of a standard shampoo at 37.degree. C. The basket was subjected to an up-and-down motion of variable frequency as well as to a rotational motion, which reproduced the action of manual rubbing, thereby causing the formation of foam.
After a test time of 3 minutes, the locks were removed and then rinsed and dried. The dyed locks were subjected to 5 consecutive shampooing tests.
The color of the locks was then re-evaluated in the Munsell system using a Minolta CM 2002 calorimeter.
The difference between the color of the lock before the shampooings and the color of the lock after the shampooings was calculated by applying the Nickerson formula:
.DELTA.E=0.4 C.sub.0 .DELTA.H+6.DELTA.V+3.DELTA.C, as described, for example, in "Couleur, Industrie et Technique"; pages 14-17; vol. No. 5; 1978.
In this formula, .DELTA.E represents the difference in color between two locks, .DELTA.H, .DELTA.V and .DELTA.C represent the variation in absolute value of the parameters H, V and C, and C.sub.0 represents the purity of the lock relative to which it is desired to evaluate the color difference.
The results are given in the table below:
These results show that the composition A3 in accordance with the invention, that is to say comprising at least two oxidation bases (para-phenylenediamine and para-aminophenol), in combination with 4-hydroxyindole as coupler, leads to a coloration which resists shampooing better than the colorations obtained with the compositions A1 and A2 as described, for example, in patent application DE 3,031,709 and which do not form part of the invention since they each contain only one of these two oxidation bases.
Comparative Example 7
The following dye compositions were prepared (contents in grams):
Compositions A4 does not form part of the invention.
Composition A5 is in accordance with the invention.
Each dye composition was mixed, at the time of use, with an equal weight amount of 20-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (6% by weight), the pH of which had been adjusted to between 1 and 1.5 with 2.5 g of orthophosphoric acid per 100 g of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution.
Each resulting composition had a pH of 6.5, and was applied for 30 minutes to locks of permanent-waved grey hair containing 90% white hairs. The locks of hair were then rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then dried.
The color of the locks was then evaluated in the Munsell system using a Minolta CM 2002 calorimeter, in order to determine the power of the coloration obtained.
The results are given in the table below:
These results show that the composition A5 in accordance with the invention, that is to say comprising at least two oxidation bases (para-phenylenediamine and para-aminophenol), in combination with 4-hydroxyindole as coupler, leads to a much more powerful coloration than the coloration obtained with the composition A4 as described, for example, in patent application FR 2,664,304 and which does not form part of the invention since it contains only one of these two oxidation bases, namely para-aminophenol.
Comparative Example 8
The following dye compositions were prepared (contents in grams):
Composition A6 does not form part of the invention.
Composition A7 is in accordance with the invention.
Each dye composition was mixed, at the time of use, with an equal weight amount of 20-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution (6% by weight), the pH of which had been adjusted to between 1 and 1.5 with 2.5 g of orthophosphoric acid per 100 g of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution.
Each resulting composition had a pH of 6.5, and was applied for 30 minutes to locks of permanent-waved grey hair containing 90% white hairs. The locks of hair were then rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then dried.
The color of the locks was then evaluated in the Munsell system using a Minolta CM 2002 calorimeter.
The dyed locks were then subjected to a test of resistance to permanent-waving. To do this, the locks were immersed in a commercial permanent-wave reducing solution, containing 9% by weight of thioglycolic acid, for 15 minutes; the locks were rinsed; they were then soaked in a fixing solution (8-volumes aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution) for 5 minutes. The locks were then rinsed with water, washed with a standard shampoo, rinsed with water and dried.
The color of the locks was then re-evaluated in the Munsell system using a Minolta CM 2002 calorimeter, in order to determine the degradation of the coloration following permanent-waving.
The results are featured in the table below:
These results show that the composition A7 in accordance with the invention, comprising at least two oxidation bases (para-phenylenediamine and para-aminophenol), in combination with 4-hydroxyindole as coupler, leads to a coloration which is much more resistant to permanent-waving than the coloration obtained with the composition A6 as described, for example, in patent application FR 2,664,304 and which does not form part of the invention since it contains only one of these two oxidation bases, namely para-phenylenediamine.
