FIELD: cosmetics. SUBSTANCE: invention relates to cosmetic composition designated for oxidative staining keratin fibers. The composition comprises the following components in a carrier corresponding to keratin fibers staining: (a) enzyme of laccase type; (b) thickening polymer taken among group consisting of: (i) non-ionic amphiphilic polymers including aliphatic chain and hydrophilic link; (ii) anionic amphiphilic polymers including hydrophilic link and link with aliphatic chain; (iii) cross-linked homopolymers of acrylic acid; (iv) cross-linked homopolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfoacid and partially or fully neutralized cross-linked copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfoacid with acrylamide; (v) homopolymers of ammonium acrylate or copolymers of ammonium acrylate with acrylamide; (vi) homopolymers of dimethylaminoethyl acrylate quaternized with methyl chloride or copolymers of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate quaternized with methyl chloride with acrylamide; (vii) non-ionic guare resins; (viii) scleroglucane resins (biopolysaccharide of bacterial origin); (ix) gums originating from vegetable exudates, for example, gum arabic and tragacanth gum; (c) dye fixing in oxidation. Invention relates also to method for staining where this composition is used. Invention provides uniform, chromatic and intense hair staining. EFFECT: valuable properties of composition. 33 cl
