Methods and related agents. Said agents including, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, a) at least one copolymer A having at least one structural unit (A1), at least one structural unit (A2), at least one structural unit (A3) and at least one structural unit (A4), wherein R1 represents an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl group; R2 represents an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl group which is different from R1; R3 independently represents an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl group different from R1 and R2, and b) at least one copolymer B, which is different from copolymer A and has at least one structural unit (B1), wherein R4 represents an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl group, improve the color retention of oxidatively dyed keratin-containing fibers.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. Method for treating keratin-containing fibers, in particular human hair, comprising the following steps: i) carrying out oxidative dyeing of the keratin-containing fiber, ii) applying an agent to the oxidatively dyed keratin-containing fiber, said agent including a cosmetically acceptable carrier and a) at least one copolymer A comprising at least one structural unit (A1), at least one structural unit (A2), at least one structural unit (A3), and at least one structural unit (A4) wherein R1 stands for an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl radical; R2 stands for an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl radical which is different from R1; R3 independently stands for an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl radical which is different from R1 and R2; b) at least one copolymer B, which is different from copolymer A, having at least one structural unit (B1) wherein R4 stands for an optionally heterofunctionalized alkyl radical. 2. The method of claim 1 , improves the color retention of the oxidatively dyed keratin-containing fibers. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein R1 in formula (A1) stands for a —CH(CH 3 )CH 2 —(OCH(CH 3 )CH 2 ) x (O[CH 2 ] 2 ) y OCH 3 radical, in which x and y independently have a value between 1 and 100. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the radical R2 in the structural unit (A2) stands for a radical containing an amino group. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the amino group is a tertiary amine. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the radicals R3 of the structural unit (A3) stands for an alkyl radical. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the alkyl radical is a C1 to C4 alkyl radical. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the radical R4 in the structural unit (B1) stands for an alkyl radical. 9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the alkyl radical is a C1 to C4 alkyl radical. 10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the alkyl radical is —CH 3 . 11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight fraction of copolymer A relative to the total weight of cosmetic agents according to the invention is 0.05 to 10% by weight. 12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight fraction of copolymer A relative to total weight of cosmetic agents according to the invention is 0.2 to 5.0% by weight. 13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight fraction of copolymer B relative to the total weight of cosmetic agents according to the invention is 0.05 to 10% by weight. 14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight fraction of copolymer B relative to the total weight of cosmetic agents according to the invention is 0.2 to 5.0% by weight. 15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of copolymer A to copolymer B is 20:1 to 1:20. 16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of copolymer A to copolymer B is 5:1 to 1:5. 17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the total quantity of the mixture of copolymer A and copolymer B is 0.1 to 10.0%, based on the total weight of the agent. 18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the total quantity of the mixture of copolymer A and copolymer B is 1.0 to 5.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the agent. 19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the agent has a pH of 6.8 to 9.5. 20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the agent is present as a cream, gel, pump foam, or aerosol foam.
