A composition suitable for hair care which has excellent hair conditioning effects and provides a pleasant sensory feeling during use. The composition contains basic amino acids and high alcohols, and is preferably free of non-polymeric alkyl quaternary ammonium salts, which are irritating and poorly biodegradable. The composition may also contain cationic polymers to enhance the conditioning effects. Anionic surface active agents, ampholytic surface active agents, or both, may also be incorporated into the hair care composition in order to impart hair cleansing properties. |
