The problem of the present disclosure is to impart manageability and flexibility to hair after being dyed or bleached using an oxidative hair dye or a hair bleaching agent. The features for solving the problem are a first agent of an oxidative hair dye or a hair bleaching agent comprising: (A) a polyvalent carboxylic acid having no hydroxyl group or a salt thereof; (B) a surfactant including (B1) a cationic surfactant and (B2) a nonionic surfactant; (C) an oily component; and (D) an alkaline agent.

Hair bleaching compositions, methods for using hair bleaching compositions, and methods for preparing hair bleaching compositions are provided herein. The hair bleaching compositions comprise at least one gallic acid derivative, at least one amino acid and/or at least one amino acid derivative, at least one oxidizing agent, and optionally, at least one hair care agent and/or hair treatment agent.

Compositions, kits, and methods for repairing bonds, for example, disulfide bonds, in hair or on the skin are disclosed. The compositions provide improved conditioning benefit for dry hair or moisturize the skin. The compositions also provide a long lasting moisturized feel and smooth feel to the skin or hair, without feeling greasy. The compositions contain one or more compounds that covalently bind at least two thiol groups in the hair or on the skin. Use of the binding compositions prevents reversion of the repaired bonds to their free thiol state, for at least one week or one month, or more, after a single application of the composition. Improved methods of styling hair, for example permanent hair waving, hair curling, hair coloring or highlighting, and hair straightening, are also provided.

The present invention relates to the use, for dyeing or lightening keratin fibres, in particular human keratin fibres such as the hair, of a hand-held styling apparatus (1) equipped with at least one treatment surface (2d, 3d) partially or totally covered with at least one substrate (6) comprising a surface (6a) coated with at least one layer (6b) containing one or more dyes, preferably chosen from oxidation dyes and/or direct dyes, and/or one or more oxidizing agents. The invention also relates to an assembly (11, 24, 26) intended for dyeing or lightening keratin fibres, in particular human keratin fibres such as the hair, comprising at least one aqueous composition and at least one hand-held styling device (1) as defined above.
