  • Conditioner compositions of the invention preferably additionally comprise fatty materials.
  • fatty materials and cationic surfactants in conditioning compositions is believed to be especially advantageous, because this leads to the formation of a lamellar phase, in which the cationic surfactant is dispersed.

  • the surfactant may be an anionic, nonionic or cationic emulsifier. Particularly preferred are nonionic emulsifiers which are formed from alkoxylation of hydrophobes such as fatty alcohols, fatty acids and phenols.
  • Hair oils are also suitable hair treatment compositions according to the invention.
  • Hair oils predominantly comprise water-insoluble oily materials as described herein.
  • Lotions are aqueous emulsions comprising water-insoluble oily conditioning materials.
  • Suitable surfactants and suspending agents as described herein can also be included in lotions to improve their stability to phase separation. It is preferred if these compositions according to the invention are applied to the hair as a pre-treatment prior to dyeing or colouring the hair.
