Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A process for dyeing keratinous material, in particular human hair, is disclosed. The process comprises applying to the keratinous material an agent (a) and an agent (b). The agent (a) comprises: (a1) at least one organosilicon compound; and (a2) at least one color-imparting compound comprising at least one effect pigment comprising (A) a substrate platelet comprising synthetic mica and (β) a coating comprising at least a first metal oxide (hydrate) layer. The agent (b) comprises (b1) at least one sealing reagent. A multi-component packaging unit (kit-of-parts) for dyeing keratinous material is also provided, and comprises separately packaged containers including the agents or components thereof for use in the process.
