[0007] In recent years, hair cosmetics have been provided with new functions such as suppressing hair curls and imparting a hair unity. However, the technology for controlling the shape of the hair itself has not been established. Therefore, there is a demand for a function of bundling hair to give a certain shape and fixing that shape, for example, a function of bundling curly hair or other curly hair and fixing it in a straight shape or fixing it in a bundled wave shape. The hair cosmetics in Patent Documents 1 to 3 above had room for improvement in terms of the hair shape fixing power. The present invention relates to a hair cosmetic and a hair treatment method with improved hair shape fixing power. Means for Solving the Problems

[0008] The present inventors have found that a hair cosmetic containing (A) at least one anionic polymer selected from a crosslinked polyacrylic acid and an (acrylates / acrylic acid alkyl (C10-30)) copolymer, (B) an anionic surfactant, and (C) a cationic polymer having a cellulose backbone can improve the hair shape fixing power, and have completed the present invention.

[0009] That is, the present invention relates to the following [1] and [2]. [1] A hair cosmetic containing the following components (A) to (C). (A) At least one anionic polymer selected from a crosslinked polyacrylic acid and an (acrylates / acrylic acid alkyl (C10-30)) copolymer (B) Anionic surfactant (C) Cationic polymer having a cellulose backbone [2] A hair treatment method comprising a step of applying the hair cosmetic according to [1] to hair and a step of rinsing the hair to which the hair cosmetic has been applied with water. [Advantages of the Invention]

[0010] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a hair cosmetic and a hair treatment method with improved hair shape fixing power. [Brief Description of the Drawings]

[0011]

Figure 1

[0012] [Hair Cosmetic] The hair cosmetic of the present invention contains the following components (A) to (C). (A) At least one anionic polymer selected from crosslinked polyacrylic acid and (acrylates / acrylic acid alkyl (C10-30)) crosspolymer (B) Anionic surfactant (C) Cationic polymer having a cellulose backbone In the present invention, "containing component X" shall be regarded as synonymous with "being formulated with component X".

[0013] The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention can improve the shape fixing power for fixing the shape of the bundled hair while tying hair into a certain shape, and therefore can be suitably applied, particularly when styling unruly hair such as curled hair into a straight or neat wavy shape, since it can reduce the time and effort required and can maintain the created shape for a long time. FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining fixation of hair shape, and shows a photograph of a hair bundle hung with its upper end fixed, viewed from the front. (a) shows an untreated evaluation hair bundle, and (b) shows the untreated evaluation hair bundle of (a) after it has been treated with the hair cosmetic product of the present invention, straightened with a ring comb, and completely dried with a hair dryer. That is, in the present invention, "hair shape fixing power" refers to the power to strongly fix the shape of, for example, curled hair as shown in Fig. 1(a) by bundling it into a straight shape as shown in Fig. 1(b), and maintaining the shape even after drying. Note that in the present invention, "fixing the hair shape" refers to a state in which hairs are bound together and the hair bundle is fixed in a certain shape, which is different from "tidy hair" which refers to a state in which the hair line is beautiful and not disturbed from the top to the tip.

[0014] The reason why the hair cosmetic composition of the present invention having the above-mentioned composition exhibits the effects of the present invention is presumed to be as follows. The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention contains, as component (A), at least one anionic polymer selected from crosslinked polyacrylic acid and (acrylates / C10-30 alkyl acrylate) crosspolymer, as component (B) an anionic surfactant, and as component (C) a cationic polymer having a cellulose skeleton. Component (A) which is an anionic polymer, component (B) which is an anionic surfactant, and component (C) which is a cationic polymer can form a complex gel through interaction with each other. When rinsing the hair to which the hair cosmetic of the present invention is applied, the component (B), which is an excessive anionic surfactant, is washed away, and the complex gel is deposited on the hair surface, and it is considered that a complex gel film having adhesiveness is formed on the hair surface. It is considered that the hair on which the complex gel film having adhesiveness is formed is fixed in shape by the complex gel film causing the hairs to bind to each other and support each other. Here, since the component (C) has excellent adhesiveness to hair, it is likely to be adsorbed uniformly over the entire hair. Further, since the above components (A) and (C) have excellent water retention, the binding force of the complex gel film can be improved. Therefore, the hair cosmetic of the present invention can uniformly form a film with good binding force over the entire hair by combining the components (A) to (C). Thus, it is considered that the hair fixing force for fixing the shape of the bundled hair can be improved while bundling the hair and imparting a certain shape.

[0015] Examples of the embodiment of the hair cosmetic of the present invention include hair cleaning agents such as hair shampoos, hair rinses, hair conditioners, hair treatments, hair packs, hair styling agents, and the like. Among these, from the viewpoint of more effectively exhibiting the effects of the present invention, those used after shampooing are preferred, and those used in a mode of being rinsed after getting used to the hair are more preferred. From such a viewpoint, as the hair cosmetic of the present invention, a hair rinse, a hair conditioner, a hair treatment, a hair pack or a hair styling agent is preferred. The dosage form of the hair cosmetic of the present invention can be any dosage form such as liquid, foamy, paste-like, cream-like, etc. Among these, from the viewpoints of ease of use and the like, it is preferably liquid, paste-like or cream-like, and more preferably liquid.

[0016] <Component (A): Anionic polymer> The hair cosmetic of the present invention contains at least one anionic polymer selected from crosslinked polyacrylic acid and (acrylates / acrylic acid alkyl (C10-30)) cross polymer as the component (A).

Carbomer is a polymer of acrylic acid crosslinked with pentaerythrityl allyl ether, sucrose allyl ether or propylene allyl ether. Component (A) forms a complex gel by interacting with component (C), which is a cationic polymer having cationicity. The water retention improvement effect of the hair by the complex gel and the effect of binding the hairs together can improve the hair shape fixing power. (Acrylates / C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Cross Polymer) is a copolymer of one or more monomers composed of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or their simple esters and alkyl acrylate (C10-30) crosslinked with allyl ether of sucrose or allyl ether of pentaerythritol, and its INCI name is Acrylates / C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Cross Polymer.

Therefore, in an aqueous medium, the hair shape fixing power can be further improved by the interaction with component (C) compared with a polymer containing alkyl methacrylate, which is less hydrophilic than acrylic acid, as a monomer structural unit. Also, the polymer of component (A) is preferably crosslinked. Since component (A) is a crosslinked polymer, the water retention improvement effect of the hair is high and the hair shape fixing power can be further improved.

The reason why component (C) containing both components (C1) and (C2) is able to further improve the hair shape fixing power is not clear, but is presumed to be as follows. Component (C2) forms a highly viscous gel and has excellent adhesion to hair, so it is easy to be uniformly adsorbed to the entire hair.

Example

[0064] [Examples 2~10、12~16 、 Reference Example 1, 11, Comparative Examples 1 to 3] Hair cosmetics having the compositions of the respective examples and comparative examples shown in Tables 1 to 3 below were prepared, and using hair bundles for evaluation, the shape fixing power of these hair cosmetics on hair was evaluated. The evaluation results are shown in Tables 1 to 3, respectively.

[0065] <Method for Blending Hair Cosmetics> Components (C1) and (C2) dissolved or uniformly dispersed in water, an appropriate amount of water, and component (B) were each placed in a beaker, and these components were uniformly mixed at 80°C. To the resulting mixture, component (A) uniformly dispersed in water was added, cooled to room temperature, and uniformly mixed. The pH was adjusted to 6 using a pH adjuster (sodium hydroxide) to obtain hair cosmetics, respectively.

[0066] <Evaluation of Shape Fixing Power of Hair> Curly hair bundles with a mass of 2 g and a length of 35 cm were washed with a plain shampoo having the composition shown below and thoroughly rinsed with warm water (35 - 40°C). Then, 0.2 g of the hair cosmetics having the compositions of the respective examples , each reference example, and comparative examples was applied to this hair bundle and allowed to soak in for 1 minute. Then, the hair bundle to which the hair cosmetics were applied was rinsed with warm water (35 - 40°C) for 30 seconds. Thereafter, the hair bundle was straightened with a ring comb and towel-dried, and then completely dried with a dryer equipped with a diffuser to obtain hair bundles for evaluation, respectively. The length of the obtained hair bundles for evaluation and the bundle width at a point 20 cm from the root of the hair bundle were measured, respectively, to evaluate the shape fixing power of the hair. The fixing power in the width direction of the hair bundle was evaluated by the bundle width (cm). The fixing power in the length direction of the hair bundle was evaluated by Δ length (cm) = (the length of the hair bundle when stretched before treatment) - (the length of the hair bundle after treatment). The smaller the bundle width and Δ length, the better the shape fixing power of the hair bundle. Here, the "length of the hair bundle when stretched before treatment" is the length when the curly hair bundle before treatment is gently stretched by hand to make the curled hair bundle straight.
