[0079] (Examples 1 to 10, Comparative Examples 1 and 2) Hair cosmetics (hair styling products) having the compositions shown in Table 1 were prepared and evaluated.

[0080] (Method of preparing hair styling product) Hair styling products of each example were obtained according to the formulations shown in Table 1. Specifically, all powder components were weighed and mixed uniformly for 30 seconds using a portable laboratory grinder LAB MILL II (manufactured by Osaka Chemical Co., Ltd., OML-2), and the oily component was added thereto and mixed uniformly again for 30 seconds. In examples not containing an oily component, only the powder phase components were mixed uniformly for 60 seconds.

[0081] (How to use) A hair bundle of 20 cm in length and 10 g in mass was prepared using straight hair of a Japanese woman that had not been chemically treated. The hair bundle was washed with the evaluation shampoo and evaluation conditioner having the following composition, towel-dried, and completely dried with a hair dryer. Then, a certain amount of each hair styling product was applied to an applicator (described below) as shown in the evaluation method below, and applied to the entire hair bundle.

[0082] Shampoo for evaluation (mass%) Lauramide DEA (Aminone L-02, Kao Corporation) 1.50 Sodium laureth sulfate (Emal 227, Kao Corporation) 15.5 Sodium benzoate (Sodium benzoate, Fushimi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) 0.50 EDTA-2Na (Clewat N, Nagase & Co., Ltd.) 0.30 Phosphoric acid (food additive 75% phosphoric acid, manufactured by Nippon Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) 0.07 Distilled water remaining

[0084] (Evaluation method) The hair styling products obtained in each example were applied to the hair bundles prepared by the above-mentioned method in the following manner, and the hair was evaluated for the lack of white cast and matte feeling after application, the ease of combing the hair after application, and the lack of powdering. In addition, the stickiness due to sebum and the sebum solidification power were evaluated by mixing oleic acid, which imitates sebum, with an amount of hair makeup. Products with a score of 5 or more in all evaluation items were considered to have passed. The evaluation results are also shown in Table 1.

[0085] (No white cast or matt feeling on hair after application) 15 mg of the hair cosmetic was taken into an applicator (a sewn puff manufactured by Nippon Puff Co., Ltd.; size D of application part 101: 6.5 cm; core 105: polyurethane foam; thickness H of core 105: 2 cm; material of fabric 107 and pile 109: polyamide (nylon); length L of pile 109: 5 mm; handle 103: included) and applied evenly over an area of ​​5 cm vertically (lengthwise) and 3 cm horizontally on the surface of the hair bundle prepared by the above-mentioned method. The lightness (L * The CIE color system (L value) was measured using a color difference meter (Konica Minolta, CR-400). * ,a * ,b * ) and the color was measured. * , a * and b * The measurement was performed at three different points on the hair bundle (one point at the center of each of the three equal areas in the longitudinal direction of the application site on the hair bundle), and the average value was calculated. * The score was used as an index of the absence of white cast and matte finish on hair after application, and was rated on a scale of 1 to 10. The higher the score, the less white cast and matte finish there was, and the more natural the finish.

[0086] (Easy combing of hair after application) Using the same applicator as used to evaluate the white cast and lack of mattness on the hair after application, 80 mg of the hair cosmetic composition was taken and applied evenly to the hair bundle prepared by the method described above to obtain a hair bundle for evaluating combability. The above hair bundle was set in a combing force measuring device (Utsunomiya Seiki Co., Ltd., KOT-0303), and a comb (Uehara Cell Co., Ltd., New Delrin Ring Comb No. 1) was inserted into the top of the hair bundle, and the load (gf) applied when the comb was passed through to the tip of the hair at a speed of 5 cm / sec was measured. The load was calculated at 200 points for a hair bundle of 20 cm in length, and the maximum load out of the 200 points was taken as the maximum load. X, calculated by the following formula, was used as an index of how well the hair could be combed after application, and was evaluated on a 10-point scale. X(gf) = (maximum load after application of hair cosmetic product G1(gf)) - (maximum load before application of hair cosmetic product G0(gf)) 10X<70 9 70≦X<140 8 140≦X<210 7 210≦X<280 6 280≦X<350 5 350≦X<420 4 420≦X<490 3 490≦X<560 2 560≦X<630 1 630≦X

[0087] (Powder Difficulty Flying) Using the same applicator as that used to evaluate the white cast and lack of mattness of the hair after application, 15 mg of the hair cosmetic was dispensed and applied by tapping onto the hair bundle prepared by the method described above. When five expert panelists performed the same procedure, the degree to which the cosmetic product scattered outside the application area was regarded as the ease of scattering, and the evaluation was made on a 5-point scale, with the total score converted to a maximum of 10 points. 5. Very difficult to dance 4. Difficult to dance 3 Neither 2. Easy to dance 1. Very easy to dance

[0088] (Reduces stickiness caused by sebum) A small amount of hair cosmetic was added to approximately 0.05g of oleic acid (Lunac OV, Kao Corporation) placed in a petri dish and mixed. A resin piece cut into 1cm square of Unipack (low density polyethylene, Seisan Nippon Sha) was brought into contact with the surface of the mixture, and the amount of hair cosmetic added until the resin piece no longer adhered was defined as A (g) and the amount of oleic acid was defined as B (g). Z, calculated using the formula below, represents the reduction in stickiness caused by sebum, and was evaluated on a 10-point scale. Z=A / B 10 Z<1.6 9 1.6≦Z<1.7 8 1.7≦Z<1.8 7 1.8≦Z<1.9 6 1.9≦Z<2.0 5 2.0≦Z<2.1 4 2.1≦Z<2.2 3 2.2≦Z<2.3 2 2.3≦Z<2.4 1 2.4≦Z

[0089] (Sebum solidifying power) Oleic acid (Lunac OV, manufactured by Kao Corporation) was added little by little to approximately 0.2 g of hair cosmetic placed in a petri dish and mixed. The amount of oleic acid added just before the mixture started to flow was C (g) and the amount of hair cosmetic was D (g). The P calculated by the following formula was used as an index of sebum solidifying power and was evaluated on a 10-point scale. The fluidity of the mixture was determined when the petri dish containing the mixture was tilted 90 degrees and left to stand for 5 seconds, and 5 mm of the mixture dripped out.
