Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a one-component hair dye composition. [Background technology]

[0002] Since hair color is expressed by the amount and ratio of melanin pigment, dyeing hair with melanin pigment is expected to produce a more natural finish, and much research has been conducted on this. In particular, hair dyeing compositions using dihydroxyindole, a precursor of eumelanin, and its derivatives have been investigated. However, since eumelanin is dark brown, other dyes are necessary to express a wide range of hair colors using it.

[0003] Patent Document 1 describes a multi-component hair dye comprising (A) an acidic agent containing a melanin precursor and (B) a reducing agent, and (C) an alkaline agent containing an alkaline agent, wherein one or more of the agents contain (D) a nonionic or anionic direct dye, and the agents are applied to the hair simultaneously, wherein the total alkalinity when the agents are mixed is below a specific value, and this air-oxidizing hair dye prevents the polymerization of the melanin precursor before use and provides sufficient hair dyeing power by applying the agents simultaneously. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-184460 [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0005] However, the hair dye described in Patent Document 1, which involves mixing multiple agents, has drawbacks such as complexity and the risk of misalignment of the mixing ratio when combining the agents. Therefore, a single-component hair dye that can achieve a wide range of hair color expressions is desired. However, in the presence of a melanin precursor, the air oxidation of the melanin derivative proceeds rapidly, causing a polymerization reaction outside the hair, and the polymerized pigment is adsorbed onto the hair surface, which may reduce the feel of the hair. Furthermore, in the case of air-oxidation type hair dyes such as melanin precursors, if the composition is made alkaline to obtain high dyeing performance, the reaction proceeds easily within the composition and is affected by even small amounts of dissolved oxygen, making it extremely difficult to stably formulate it as a single-component product.

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a one-component hair dye composition that can stably combine a predetermined melanin precursor and a specific direct dye, thereby enabling a wide range of hair color expressions that cannot be achieved with the predetermined melanin precursor alone, and further providing a good feel for the hair after treatment. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The present inventors have found that the above problem can be solved by a one-component hair dye composition containing a predetermined melanin precursor, a specific direct dye, and a nonionic surfactant in specific ratios. In other words, the present invention relates to the following. [1] The following components (A) to (E): (A) Compounds represented by the following formula (1) or salts thereof [ka] (In equation (1), the dashed line indicates the presence or absence of a π bond. R 1 R represents a hydroxyl group or an acetoxy group. 2 R represents a hydrogen atom, or a -COOR group (where R is a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or an ethyl group). 3 (This represents a hydrogen atom, an acetyl group, a methyl group, or an ethyl group.) (B) Neutral or anionic direct dyes (C) Alkaline agent (D) Nonionic surfactant (E) Cationic surfactant A one-component hair dye composition containing the above, wherein the ratio (D) / (B) of the mass content of component (D) to the mass content of component (B) is 3.0 or more and 30.0 or less, and the pH is 8.0 or more and 11.0 or less. [2] A method of dyeing hair by applying the one-component hair dye composition described in [1] above to the hair. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] The present invention provides a one-component hair dye composition that allows for the stable blending of a predetermined melanin precursor and a specific direct dye, resulting in a wide range of hair color expression and a pleasant feel to the hair after treatment. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] [One-part hair dye composition] The one-component hair dye composition of the present invention comprises the following components (A) to (D): (A) Compounds represented by the following formula (1) or salts thereof [ka] (In equation (1), the dashed line indicates the presence or absence of a π bond. R 1 R represents a hydroxyl group or an acetoxy group. 2 R represents a hydrogen atom, or a -COOR group (where R is a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or an ethyl group). 3 (This represents a hydrogen atom, an acetyl group, a methyl group, or an ethyl group.) (B) Neutral or anionic direct dyes (C) Alkaline agent (D) Nonionic surfactant The composition contains the above, and the ratio of the mass content of component (D) to the mass content of component (B), (D) / (B), is 3.0 or more and 30.0 or less, and the pH is 8.0 or more and 11.0 or less. In the following description, a one-part hair dye composition may be simply referred to as "composition".

[0010] The one-component hair dye composition of the present invention, having the above-described structure, allows for the stable blending of a predetermined melanin precursor and a specific direct dye. As a result, it is possible to provide a one-component hair dye composition that enables a wide range of hair color expression and also provides a good feel for the hair after treatment. [Definition] In this specification, "ability to achieve a wide range of color expression" means that, by stably combining a predetermined melanin precursor with a specific direct dye, it is possible to produce colors that would be difficult to achieve with the predetermined melanin precursor alone.

[0011] The reason why the composition of the present invention produces the above effects is not clear, but it is presumed to be as follows. Component (B) contributes to the diverse color expression of hair. Component (C) has the effect of swelling the hair and opening the cuticle, allowing dyeing components such as components (A) and (B) to penetrate deep into the hair, as well as promoting the polymerization reaction of component (A) and improving the hair dyeing properties. Component (D) contributes to the stable formulation of dyeing components such as components (A) and (B). If the amount of component (D) is too small, the stability of components (A) and (B) decreases and aggregates form. On the other hand, if the amount of component (D) is too large, the feel of the hair after treatment tends to deteriorate. Therefore, by setting the ratio of the mass content of component (D) to the mass content of component (B) [(D) / (B)] within a specific range, components (A) and (B) can be stably formulated while allowing component (E) to contribute to improving the feel of the hair. As a result, a one-component hair dye composition can be provided that enables diverse hair color expression and provides a good feel for the hair after treatment. Furthermore, although the dyeing ability tends to decrease if the amount of component (E) is too large, by setting the ratio of the mass content of component (E) to the mass content of component (B) [(E) / (B)] within a specific range, even better dyeing ability and color expression can be achieved.

Among these, hair cosmetics selected from the group consisting of rinses, conditioning agents, and treatment agents are preferred. The dosage form of the single-agent type hair dyeing material composition is not particularly limited, and for example, it can be in any dosage form such as liquid, foamy, paste, cream, solid, powder, etc. From the viewpoint of the applicability to hair, it is preferably in a liquid, foamy, paste or cream form.

Examples

[0065] [[ID=##]] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the examples. [[ID=##]] [[ID=##]]

[0066] [[ID=##]] [[ID=##]] <pH measurement>[[ID=##]] Using a pH meter (F - 51, manufactured by Horiba, Ltd.), the pH of the one - agent - type hair - dyeing material composition at 25°C was measured. [[ID=##]]

[0067] [[ID=##]] [Preparation of one - agent - type hair - dyeing material composition (conditioner)] [[ID=##]] Example 1 [[ID=##]] A predetermined amount of 2-amino-6-chloro-4-nitrophenol (component B), 3.0 parts by mass of monoethanolamine (component C), 3.15 parts by mass of a 28% aqueous solution of stearyltrimethylammonium chloride (Cotamin 86W: manufactured by Kao Corporation) (0.88 parts by mass as stearyltrimethylammonium chloride) (component E), purified water, and phosphoric acid were mixed so that the one-part hair dye composition had a pH of 10.2 and a volume of 100 parts by mass. To this aqueous solution, 0.24 parts by mass of polyoxyethylene(2) cetyl ether and 0.53 parts by mass of polyoxyethylene(40) cetyl ether (component D), and 2.2 parts by mass of stearyl alcohol and 2.8 parts by mass of behenyl alcohol (component F) were added to prepare an emulsifier. Furthermore, under a nitrogen atmosphere, 0.6 parts by mass of ascorbic acid, 0.35 parts by mass of sodium sulfite, and 25.0 parts by mass of an aqueous solution containing component (A) (0.25 parts by mass of component (A)) were added to obtain a one-component hair dye composition.

[0068] Examples 2-13, Comparative Examples 1 and 2 The procedure was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the content of each component was changed as shown in Table 1, to obtain the one-component hair dye compositions of Examples 2 to 13, and Comparative Examples 1 and 2. The pH at 25°C was 10.2 in all cases. The following evaluations were performed using the one-component hair dye compositions of Examples 1 to 13 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[0069] <Evaluation of one-component hair dye composition (stability)> The stability of the one-part hair dye composition was evaluated by visually observing the presence or absence of precipitates in the composition after spreading 0.1g of the composition onto a glass slide and placing a coverslip on top. The evaluation criteria were as follows. A: No precipitates were observed. B: Precipitates are present but are fine and uniformly dispersed throughout. C: Precipitates are observed and are aggregated and present locally.

[0070] <Evaluation of one-part hair dye composition (tactile evaluation)> For each example, 10g of the one-part hair dye composition obtained was uniformly applied to a 30cm long, 10g mass black human hair strand (Beaulux Co., Ltd. "BS-A" with aligned roots) so that the bath ratio was 1:1 (stretch:one-part hair dye composition), and left for 10 minutes in a 30°C atmosphere. Next, the treated strand was rinsed with warm water for 30 seconds to wash away the one-part hair dye composition, and then towel-dried to adjust the water content to a bath ratio of 1:0.4 (stretch:water).

[0071] The tactile evaluation was conducted after the completion of this series of processes, according to the following criteria. Five expert panelists performed a 5-point rating system based on the criteria below, and the average score of the five panelists was calculated. 5 points: Judged to have good glide. 4 points: Judged to have slightly good glide. 3 points: Judgment that the slipperiness is neither good nor bad. 2 points: Judged to have slightly poor glide. 1 point: Judged to have poor sliding properties.

[0072] <Evaluation of one-component hair dye compositions (ΔC value, L value)> For a 10cm long, 1g gray hair treatment (BM-WA, manufactured by Beaulux Co., Ltd.), 1g of the one-part hair dye composition obtained in each example was uniformly applied to the hair treatment (BM-WA, manufactured by Beaulux Co., Ltd.) in a bath ratio of 1:1 (treatment:one-part hair dye composition), and left for 10 minutes in a 30°C atmosphere. Next, the treated treatment was rinsed with warm water for 30 seconds, then washed with a plain shampoo of the composition shown below for 15 seconds, and rinsed again with warm water for another 15 seconds. After 15 minutes in a 30°C atmosphere, the treatment was dried by applying cool air from a hairdryer for 15 minutes.

[0073] For the dried traces obtained, the saturation (C value) and lightness (L value) were measured at six locations per trace using a colorimeter (Konica Minolta CR-400), and the average values ​​for each were calculated. The saturation (C value) was calculated using the following formula (x), and the obtained C value was introduced into the following formula (y) to find the ΔC value. C value = {(a * ) 2 +(b * ) 2 } 1 / 2 ...(x) ΔC value = (C value of hair dyed with the composition of each example and comparative example) - (C value of hair dyed with a composition containing only DHI as a dye) ... (y)

[0074] (Plain Shampoo) (Percentage by Mass) Sodium polyoxyethylene lauryl ether sulfate (Emal E-27C (active ingredient content: 27% by mass), manufactured by Kao Corporation) 57.4 Lauramide DEA (Aminone L-02, manufactured by Kao Corporation) 1.5 EDTA-2Na (Frost DS, manufactured by Daiichi Chemical Co., Ltd.) 0.3 Appropriate amount of phosphoric acid (adjusted to pH 7.0) Purified water remainder Total 100 To evaluate the ability to express a wide range of colors, a ΔC value of 3.6 or higher was considered a pass (P), an L value of 36 or higher was considered a pass (P), and anything else was considered a fail (F). When both the ΔC value and the L value passed (P), it was evaluated that a wide range of colors had been achieved.

[0075] <Evaluation of one-part hair dye composition (color)> For a 10cm long, 1g gray hair sample (BM-WA, manufactured by Beaulux Co., Ltd.), 1g of the one-part hair dye composition obtained in each example was uniformly applied to the sample in a bath ratio of 1:1 (Tres:one-part hair dye composition), and left for 10 minutes in a 30°C atmosphere. Next, the treated Tres was rinsed with warm water for 30 seconds, then washed for 15 seconds with the plain shampoo used in the "Evaluation of One-Part Hair Dye Composition (ΔC value, L value)" above, and rinsed again with warm water for another 15 seconds. After 15 minutes in a 30°C atmosphere, the Tres was dried by applying cool air from a hairdryer for 15 minutes. The color of the Tres after drying was evaluated by visual observation in accordance with JIS Z 8102.
