Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to oxidation hair dye compositions. [Background technology]

[0002] Oxidative hair dyes are known as hair dyes that dye hair. Oxidative hair dyes dye hair by penetrating an oxidative dye into hair that has been swollen by the action of an alkaline agent, causing the oxidizing agent to decompose the melanin pigment contained in the hair and the oxidative polymerization of the oxidative dye to develop color.

[0003] However, even if the same oxidative hair dye is used, the new growth of hair, i.e., the part that has grown since the previous dyeing treatment, and the previously dyed part of hair, i.e., the part that grew before the previous dyeing treatment, may not be dyed to the same degree. In response to this, for example, hair salons sometimes use different oxidative hair dyes for the new growth and previously dyed parts. However, it is difficult to select an appropriate oxidative hair dye that will achieve the same degree of dyeing.

[0004] Patent Document 1 describes that an oxidation hair dye composition containing a specific oxidation dye and one or more selected from threonine and serine exhibits equivalent dyeing performance in both new growth and already dyed hair sections. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2015-59110 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] Hair generally fades during repeated washing after a hair dyeing process. According to the inventors' research, since the degree of fading of hair differs between the new growth portion and the previously dyed portion, even if the new growth portion and the previously dyed portion are dyed to the same degree immediately after the hair dyeing process, the degree of dyeing may become uneven after fading. Specifically, when the degree of dyeing of the new growth portion and the previously dyed portion after fading was strictly evaluated, there were cases where the degree of dyeing was uneven in terms of hue, saturation, or brightness.

[0007] It was also found that in addition to the degree of dyeing, the feel of the hair may differ between the newly grown hair and the already dyed hair. One aspect of the present disclosure provides an oxidation hair dye composition that maintains long-lasting uniformity in the dyeing of new growth and previously dyed parts of hair, and that provides a uniform feel to the new growth and previously dyed parts, thereby maintaining the uniform feel to the touch. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] One aspect of the present disclosure is an oxidation hair dye composition containing (A) a polyhydric alcohol having an IOB value of 3.5 or more, (B) an oily component that is solid or pasty at room temperature, (C) an oxidation dye, and (D) an amino acid or a salt thereof. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, component (A) may include glycerin. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, component (B) may include shea butter.

[0009] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the mass ratio (A) / (B) of the content of component (A) in the oxidative hair dye composition to the content of component (B) in the oxidative hair dye composition may be 1 or more and 10 or less. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the component (C) may contain at least one or more selected from (C-1) α-naphthol, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, and 2,2′-[(4-aminophenyl)imino]bisethanol sulfate.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the component (C) may contain at least (C-2) resorcinol. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, (E) a synthetic cationic polymer may be further contained. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] According to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an oxidation hair dye composition that maintains the uniformity of dyeing between new growth and previously dyed parts of hair for a long time, and that provides a uniform feel between the new growth and previously dyed parts, thereby maintaining the uniformity of feel for a long time. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] The oxidation hair dye composition of one embodiment of the present disclosure contains (A) a polyhydric alcohol having an IOB value of 3.5 or more, (B) an oily component that is solid or pasty at room temperature, (C) an oxidation dye, and (D) an amino acid or a salt thereof.

[0013] As mentioned above, it is difficult to achieve the same degree of dyeing between the newly grown and already dyed parts of the hair, and even if the degree of dyeing is the same immediately after the hair dyeing treatment, the degree of dyeing may become uneven after fading. In addition to the degree of dyeing, the feel of the hair may also be different.

[0014] This difference is thought to be due to the difference in the condition of the hair between the new growth section and the already dyed section. In other words, in the already dyed section, damage has accumulated through previous dyeing treatments, causing the cuticle to peel off and the hydrophobicity maintained in healthy hair to be lost, making it more likely to absorb excess moisture.

[0015] During hair dyeing, the action of alkaline agents causes hair to swell, making it easier for ingredients such as oxidative dyes and oxidizing agents to penetrate into the hair. However, the dyed areas, which tend to absorb excess moisture, swell more easily than the new growth areas, making these ingredients more likely to penetrate into the hair than the new growth areas. As a result, the dyed areas are dyed relatively darker than the new growth areas. On the other hand, the dyed areas are more likely to absorb water even when washed, making it easier for the dye to be washed out of the hair. Therefore, after the dyeing process, the hair fades more in the dyed areas than in the new growth areas.

[0016] Furthermore, such differences in hair condition directly manifest as differences in the feel of the hair. In particular, previously dyed sections are more likely than newly dyed sections to be dry, rough, difficult to run your fingers through, and prone to catching when combed. According to the investigations of the present inventors, by using the above component (A) and the above component (B) in combination, it is possible to make the degree of dyeing and feel of the newly dyed and already dyed areas uniform.

[0017] Component (A), a polyhydric alcohol with an IOB value of 3.5 or more, is thought to regulate the amount of water adsorbed by both dyed and newly dyed areas by reducing the amount of water adsorbed by the previously dyed areas and increasing the amount of water adsorbed by the newly dyed areas. Component (B), an oily component that is solid or paste-like at room temperature, is thought to contribute to the hydrophobicity of previously dyed areas. In this way, the components (A) and (B) can make the amount of moisture adsorbed by the newly dyed part and the already dyed part closer to each other, thereby making the dyeing degree and feel of the newly dyed part and the already dyed part uniform.

[0018] Furthermore, component (D) remains in the hair for a long time while preventing the oxidative dye (component (C)) from washing away, thereby maintaining the uniformity of the dyeing between the newly grown and already dyed sections. Component (D) also has the effect of improving the feel of the hair, particularly by reducing the dryness, roughness, and difficulty in running fingers through the hair, which tend to occur in already dyed sections, as well as the tendency for the hair to get caught when combed or combed by hand, thereby improving the feel of the hair, and allowing the uniformity of the feel of the newly grown and already dyed sections to last longer.

[0019] The oxidation hair dye composition according to one embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below. [Oxidative hair dye composition] Examples of oxidative hair dye compositions include multi-component compositions containing a first component containing an alkaline agent and a second component containing an oxidizing agent. The first and second components are mixed and applied to the hair at the time of use. The mixing operation may be performed before or after application to the hair. For example, they may be mixed just before application to the hair, or the first and second components may be taken up with a comb or the like and mixed on the hair using the comb or the like. A multi-component composition may be composed of only two components, the first and second components, or may be composed of three or more components including other components. Furthermore, an oxidative hair dye composition may be composed of only one component.

[0020] The form of each component constituting the oxidation hair dye composition and the form of the components mixed together at the time of use are not particularly limited. Examples of the form include cream, liquid, powder, tablet, gel, and foam. When foaming at the time of use, the composition can be made into a foam using a known foaming tool. Examples of known foaming tools include non-aerosol foamers, aerosol foamers, and shakers. In the case of an aerosol foamer, known propellants and foaming agents can be used.

[0021] [Component (A)] (A) Polyhydric alcohols with an IOB value of 3.5 or more can be used in combination with component (B) as described above to make the dyeing and feel of the new hair growth and already dyed hair uniform.

[0022] IOB stands for Inorganic / Organic Balance. The IOB value is the ratio of a compound's inorganic value to its organic value and is an index of the polarity of an organic compound. Specifically, it is expressed as "IOB value = inorganic value / organic value." The inorganic and organic values ​​of a compound are determined by adding up the inorganic and organic values ​​of all atoms and functional groups in the organic compound, such as a carbon atom with an organic value of 20 and a hydroxyl group with an inorganic value of 100. (See, for example, Yoshio Koda, "Organic Conceptual Diagram: Fundamentals and Applications," pages 11-17, Sankyo Publishing, 1984.) The IOB value of a compound is calculated using the summed inorganic and organic values.

[0023] (A) Examples of polyhydric alcohols having an IOB value of 3.5 or more include glycerin, diglycerin, sorbitol, maltitol, erythritol, xylitol, mannitol, glucose, maltose, sucrose, trehalose, etc. Only one of these may be contained, or two or more may be contained.

[0024] As component (A), a polyhydric alcohol with an IOB value of 4 or more is preferred, as this allows for more uniform dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas. Furthermore, as component (A), it is preferable to contain at least one selected from glycerin, diglycerin, and sorbitol, as this makes it possible to achieve a more uniform dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas, and it is more preferable to contain glycerin.

[0025] The content of component (A) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.03% by mass or more, even more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, even more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.5% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (A) is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, and even more preferably 2% by mass or less. When the content of component (A) is within this range, the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas can be made more uniform.

[0026] The content of component (A) in the oxidative hair dye composition refers to the content in the oxidative hair dye composition at the time of use. For example, in the case of a two-component composition, it refers to the content of component (A) in the mixture when the two components are mixed. The same applies to the contents below.

[0027] [(B) Component] (B) The oily component that is solid or pasty at room temperature can be used in combination with component (A) as described above to achieve a more uniform dyeing and feel between the new and already dyed parts of the hair. In the case of a multi-component composition, component (B) may be contained in any of the first, second, or other components. However, component (B) is preferably contained in the first component containing an alkaline agent, as this allows for more uniform dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas and maintains that uniformity for a longer period of time. Furthermore, component (B) is preferably contained in the same component as component (A), as this allows for more uniform dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas and maintains that uniformity for a longer period of time.

[0028] Here, an oily component that is solid or pasty at room temperature specifically refers to an oily component that is solid or pasty at 25°C. Note that an oily component that is pasty at 25°C specifically refers to a component that can freely change shape while maintaining a constant volume at 25°C and can maintain that changed shape.

[0029] Component (B) is preferably at least one selected from vegetable oils, waxes, hydrocarbons, and esters, and is solid or pasty at 25°C. Examples of vegetable oils include vegetable fats, hydrogenated vegetable oils, and other vegetable oils. Examples of vegetable fats include shea butter, cacao butter, Theobroma grandiflorum seed oil, mango seed oil, and Japan wax. Examples of hydrogenated vegetable oils include hydrogenated coconut oil, hydrogenated castor oil, hydrogenated castor oil stearate, and hydrogenated palm oil. Examples of other vegetable oils include partially hydrogenated isomerized jojoba oil, rice bran fatty acid phytosteryl, oleic acid phytosteryl, and macadamia nut fatty acid phytosteryl.

[0030] Examples of waxes include beeswax, candelilla wax, carnauba wax, jojoba wax, lanolin, reduced lanolin, whale wax, rice bran wax, sugarcane wax, palm wax, montan wax, cotton wax, bayberry wax, privet wax, kapok wax, and shellac wax.

[0031] Examples of hydrocarbons include ozokerite, paraffin, ceresin, and microcrystalline wax. Examples of esters include tri(caprylic acid / capric acid / myristic acid / stearic acid)glyceryl, dipentaerythrityl tetra(hydroxystearate / isostearate), dipentaerythrityl hexahydroxystearate, hydroxyalkyl dimer fatty acid ether, and bisdiglyceryl polyacyladipate-2.

[0032] Only one of these may be contained, or two or more may be contained. As component (B), it is preferable to contain vegetable oils and fats, and more preferable to contain vegetable fats, because this can make the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed parts more uniform. This is because vegetable oils and fats, particularly vegetable fats, have appropriate polarity and are more easily absorbed into hair. As the vegetable fat, it is preferable to contain at least one selected from shea butter and cocoa butter, and more preferable to contain shea butter.

[0033] The content of component (B) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.5% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (B) is preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, and even more preferably 2% by mass or less. When the content of component (B) is within this range, the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas can be made more uniform.

[0034] The mass ratio (A) / (B) of the content of component (A) in the oxidation hair dye composition to the content of component (B) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.05 or more, and more preferably 1 or more. Furthermore, the mass ratio (A) / (B) is preferably 20 or less, and more preferably 10 or less. When the mass ratio (A) / (B) is within this range, the blending balance between component (A) and component (B) is good, and the amount of moisture adsorbed to the newly dyed portion and the already dyed portion can be adjusted more uniformly.

[0035] [(C) component] The oxidation dye, which is component (C), is composed of a dye intermediate that develops color through oxidation of itself and a coupler that develops color through reaction with this intermediate.

[0036] Examples of dye intermediates include p-phenylenediamine, toluene-2,5-diamine, N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, 4,4'-diaminodiphenylamine, p-aminophenol, o-aminophenol, p-methylaminophenol, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, 2-hydroxyethyl-p-phenylenediamine, o-chloro-p-phenylenediamine, 4-amino-m-cresol, 2-amino-4-hydroxyethylaminoanisole, 2,4-diaminophenol, 1-hydroxyethyl-4,5-diaminopyrazole, and salts thereof. Examples of salts include hydrochlorides and sulfates. Only one of these may be contained, or two or more may be contained.

[0037] Examples of couplers include resorcinol, α-naphthol, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, 2,2'-[(4-aminophenyl)imino]bisethanol, 5-amino-o-cresol, m-aminophenol, 5-(2-hydroxyethylamino)-2-methylphenol, m-phenylenediamine, 2,4-diaminophenoxyethanol, toluene-3,4-diamine, 2,6-diaminopyridine, diphenylamine, N,N-diethyl-m-aminophenol, phenylmethylpyrazolone, and salts thereof. Examples of salts include hydrochlorides and sulfates.

[0038] Examples of oxidation dyes other than those mentioned above include oxidation dyes listed in "Standards for Quasi-drug Raw Materials" (published in June 2006 by Yakuji Nipposha). Only one of these oxidation dyes may be contained, or two or more of them may be contained.

[0039] The coupler in component (C) preferably contains at least one selected from (C-1) α-naphthol, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, and 2,2'-[(4-aminophenyl)imino]bisethanol sulfate. Component (C-1) has a relatively large molecular size and tends to remain in the hair, which helps maintain the uniformity of dyeing between the new and previously dyed sections for a longer period of time.

[0040] The coupler in component (C) preferably contains (C-2) resorcinol, which has the effect of reducing the color difference between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas, thereby achieving a more uniform dyeing of the newly dyed and previously dyed areas.

[0041] The oxidation hair dye composition may contain both the component (C-1) and the component (C-2), or may contain only one of them, but it is preferable that both are contained. The content of component (C-1) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.1% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (C-1) is preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 1% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.5% by mass or less. When the content of component (C-1) is within this range, the uniformity of the dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas can be maintained for a longer period of time.

[0042] The content of component (C-2) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.1% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (C-2) is preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 1% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.5% by mass or less. A content of component (C-2) within this range allows for more uniform dyeing of newly dyed and previously dyed hair.

[0043] The total content of component (C) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.1% by mass or more, more preferably 0.5% by mass or more, and even more preferably 1% by mass or more, since a high hair dyeing effect can be obtained. The upper limit of the total content of component (C) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and even more preferably 5% by mass or less.

[0044] [(D) component] As mentioned above, component (D) can be used in combination with components (A) and (B) to prolong the uniformity of the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas.

[0045] Examples of amino acids include threonine, serine, taurine, glycine, theanine, arginine, lysine, histidine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. Examples of salts include hydrochlorides. Only one of these may be contained, or two or more may be contained.

[0046] The amino acid is not particularly limited, but preferably contains at least one selected from threonine, serine, and taurine, and more preferably contains threonine. The content of component (D) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.1% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (D) is preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 1% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.5% by mass or less. When the content of component (D) is within this range, the uniformity of the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas can be maintained for a longer period of time.

[0047] In the oxidation hair dye composition ( D ) component in the oxidation hair dye composition relative to the content of the BThe mass ratio (B) / (D) of the contents of the components (B) and (D) is preferably 0.3 or more, and more preferably 3 or more. The mass ratio (B) / (D) is preferably 300 or less, and more preferably 30 or less. When the mass ratio (B) / (D) is within this range, the blending balance between the components (B) and (D) is good, and the uniformity of the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas can be maintained for a longer period of time.

[0048] [(E) component] The oxidation hair dye composition may contain (E) a synthetic cationic polymer. A cationic polymer is a polymer that has been cationized by introducing a cationic group, for example, a nitrogen-containing group exhibiting cationicity, such as a quaternary ammonium base. Cationic polymers are broadly classified into natural cationic polymers and synthetic cationic polymers. Natural cationic polymers are polymers obtained by cationizing common naturally occurring polymers, such as cellulose, starch, and guar gum. In contrast, synthetic cationic polymers are polymers obtained by cationizing non-naturally occurring polymers, and are usually synthesized chemically.

[0049] While components (A) and (B) have the above-mentioned effects, compositions containing components (A) and (B) tend to make hair feel slightly sticky. In contrast, the inclusion of a cationic polymer further suppresses hair stickiness. Furthermore, synthetic cationic polymers are more easily absorbed into hair than natural cationic polymers, allowing this effect of improving hair feel to last longer.

[0050] In addition, like component (D), the synthetic cationic polymer also has the effect of preventing the oxidative dye (component (C)) from washing away, thereby prolonging the uniformity of the dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas. Therefore, by blending component (E) in addition to the above components (A) to (D), the uniformity of the dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas can be maintained for a longer period of time.

[0051] Examples of (E) synthetic cationic polymers include polydimethyldimethylenepyrrolidinium chloride, dimethyldimethylenepyrrolidinium chloride-(meth)acrylamide copolymer, (meth)acrylamide-(meth)acrylic acid-dimethyldiallylammonium chloride copolymer, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl diethyl(meth)acrylate sulfate, N,N-dimethyl polyethylene glycol(meth)acrylate, cationized polyvinylpyrrolidone, etc. Only one of these may be contained, or two or more may be contained.

[0052] As component (E), it is preferable to contain polydimethyldimethylenepyrrolidinium chloride, as this can improve the feel of the hair and maintain the uniform feel between the newly dyed and previously dyed sections for a longer period of time. The content of component (E) in the oxidation hair dye composition is preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.1% by mass or more. Furthermore, the content of component (E) is preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, and even more preferably 1% by mass or less. When the content of component (E) is within this range, the effect of improving the feel of hair and the uniformity of feel between newly grown and already dyed hair can be maintained for a longer period.

[0053] [Alkaline agent] As described above, in the case of a multi-component composition, the alkaline agent is contained in the first component. The pH of the first component is not particularly limited, but is preferably from 8 to 12. The content of the alkaline agent in the oxidation hair dye composition is not particularly limited, but is preferably from 0.5 to 20% by mass.

[0054] Examples of alkaline agents include ammonia, ammonium salts, alkanolamines, organic amines, inorganic alkalis, and carbonates. Examples of ammonium salts include ammonium salts of inorganic acids such as ammonium chloride, ammonium carbonate, ammonium hydrogencarbonate, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, and ammonium nitrate, and ammonium salts of organic acids such as ammonium citrate, ammonium acetate, ammonium oxalate, and ammonium tartrate.

Only one of these alkaline agents may be contained, or two or more of them may be contained.

[0058] [Oxidizing agent] As described above, in the case of a multi-component composition, the oxidizing agent is contained in the second component. The pH of the second component is not particularly limited, but is preferably from 1 to 6. The content of the oxidizing agent in the oxidation hair dye composition is not particularly limited, but is preferably from 0.1 to 15% by mass.

[Example]

[0077] [Preparation of Oxidative Hair Dye Composition] A cream-like first agent containing each of the components shown in Tables 1 to 5 and a cream-like second agent shown in Table 6 were prepared in a conventional manner, and the first and second agents were mixed to obtain oxidation hair dye compositions. In each table, the unit of the numerical values ​​representing the content of each component is % by mass.

[0078] [evaluation] The oxidation hair dye compositions thus prepared were evaluated as follows. The evaluation results are shown in the lower columns of Tables 1 to 5.

[0079] (Evenness of dyeing immediately after dyeing) The tip 5 cm of a 10 cm long white hair bundle sample was bleached using bleach (Promaster® EX LT, manufactured by Hoyu Corporation). Next, the prepared oxidative hair dye composition was applied to the entire hair bundle sample using a brush in a ratio of 1 g of oxidative hair dye composition per 1 g of hair bundle sample, and left to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Next, the oxidative hair dye composition was rinsed off with water, and the hair bundle sample was washed twice with a shampoo composition (Bigen® Treatment Shampoo, manufactured by Hoyu Corporation). Next, the hair bundle sample was dried with warm air.

[0080] The root portion of the unbleached hair bundle sample can be likened to the new growth portion of hair, while the tip portion of the bleached hair bundle sample can be likened to the dyed portion of hair. Therefore, by comparing the degree of dyeing of both samples after dyeing, it is possible to evaluate whether the degree of dyeing of the new growth portion of hair and the dyed portion of hair is equivalent.

[0081] Ten expert panelists visually inspected the dyeing of the entire hair bundle sample under a standard light source and scored the uniformity of the dyeing between the new and previously dyed sections according to the following criteria. The dyeing was evaluated primarily from the perspectives of hue, saturation, and brightness.

[0082] 4 points: No difference in dyeing was observed. 3 points: Almost no difference in the degree of dyeing. 2 points: There is a slight difference in the degree of dyeing. 1 point: There is a clear difference in the degree of dyeing.

[0083] The average scores of the 10 panelists were calculated, and an average score of 3.6 or more was rated as "A: Excellent (5)", 2.6 to less than 3.6 was rated as "B: Good", 1.6 to less than 2.6 was rated as "C: Fairly poor", and less than 1.6 was rated as "D: Poor".

[0084] (Uniformity of texture immediately after dyeing) Ten expert panelists touched the entire hair bundle sample prepared in the "Evenness of dyeing immediately after dyeing" section above with their fingers and compared the difference in feel between the newly grown and already dyed areas, and scored the evenness of feel according to the following criteria.

[0085] 4 points: There is absolutely no difference in feel. 3 points: There is almost no difference in feel. 2 points: There is a slight difference in feel. 1 point: There is a clear difference in feel.

[0086] The average scores of the 10 panelists were calculated, and an average score of 3.6 or more was rated as "A: Excellent (5)", 2.6 to less than 3.6 was rated as "B: Good", 1.6 to less than 2.6 was rated as "C: Fairly poor", and less than 1.6 was rated as "D: Poor".

[0087] (Evenness of dyeing after washing) The following test was conducted to evaluate the uniformity of dyeing on dyed hair bundle samples after a certain number of washings. The hair bundle sample prepared in the above "Evenness of dyeing immediately after dyeing" was immersed for 20 minutes in a 2% aqueous solution of sodium lauryl sulfate at 50° C. The hair bundle sample was then removed from the 2% aqueous solution of sodium lauryl sulfate, washed twice with a shampoo composition ("Bigen (registered trademark) Treatment Shampoo" manufactured by Hoyu Corporation), and then dried with warm air.

[0088] After washing, 10 expert panelists visually inspected the dyed condition of the entire hair bundle sample under a standard light source and scored the uniformity of dyeing between the newly grown and already dyed sections according to the following criteria. The dyeing condition was evaluated mainly from the perspectives of hue, saturation, and brightness.

[0089] 4 points: No difference in dyeing was observed. 3 points: Almost no difference in the degree of dyeing. 2 points: There is a slight difference in the degree of dyeing. 1 point: There is a clear difference in the degree of dyeing.

[0090] The average scores of the 10 panelists were calculated, and an average score of 3.6 or more was rated as "A: Excellent (5)", 2.6 to less than 3.6 was rated as "B: Good", 1.6 to less than 2.6 was rated as "C: Fairly poor", and less than 1.6 was rated as "D: Poor".

[0091] (Uniformity of feel after washing) Ten expert panelists touched the entire washed hair bundle sample prepared in the "Evenness of dyeing after washing" section above with their fingers and compared the difference in feel between the newly grown and already dyed areas, and scored the evenness of feel according to the following criteria.

[0092] 4 points: There is absolutely no difference in feel. 3 points: There is almost no difference in feel. 2 points: There is a slight difference in feel. 1 point: There is a clear difference in feel.

[0093] The average scores of the 10 panelists were calculated, and an average score of 3.6 or more was rated as "A: Excellent (5)", 2.6 to less than 3.6 was rated as "B: Good", 1.6 to less than 2.6 was rated as "C: Fairly poor", and less than 1.6 was rated as "D: Poor".

[0100] [Consideration] As shown in Examples 1 to 22, the oxidation hair dye compositions containing components (A) to (D) provided uniform dyeing and texture between the new growth and already dyed parts of the hair, and this uniformity lasted for a long time.

[0101] As shown in Examples 1 to 4, the compositions of Examples 1 and 2, which contained a synthetic cationic polymer (component (E)) as the cationic polymer, were able to maintain the uniformity of the dyeing and feel between the newly dyed and already dyed areas for a longer period of time than the composition of Example 3, which contained a natural cationic polymer, and the composition of Example 4, which contained no cationic polymer whatsoever.

[0102] Furthermore, when Example 1 and Example 3 were separately compared in terms of the stickiness of hair immediately after the hair dyeing treatment, it was found that Example 1, which contained the synthetic cationic polymer (E) as the cationic polymer, was more effective in reducing hair stickiness than Example 3, which contained the natural cationic polymer.

[0103] As shown in Examples 1 and 5, the composition of Example 1, which contained the component (C-2) as the (C) component, was able to achieve more uniform dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas than the composition of Example 5, which did not contain the component (C-2).

[0104] As shown in Examples 1, 6 to 8, the compositions of Examples 1, 6, and 7, which contained the component (C-1) as the component (C), were able to achieve more uniform dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas than the composition of Example 8, which did not contain the component (C-1).

[0105] As shown in Examples 1, 9, and 10, the compositions of Examples 1 and 10, which contain vegetable fat as component (B), were able to achieve more uniform dyeing between the newly dyed and previously dyed areas than the composition of Example 9, which contains hydrocarbons as component (B).

[0106] As shown in Examples 1, 15, and 16, the composition of Example 1 containing glycerin as component (A) and the composition of Example 15 containing sorbitol maintained uniformity of dyeing and feel for a longer period of time than the composition of Example 16 containing diglycerin.

[0107] As shown in Examples 25 and 26, even when serine or taurine was used instead of threonine as component (D), the uniformity of the dyeing and feel was maintained for a long time. As shown in Examples 11 to 14, 17 to 20, 21 to 24, and 27 to 30, the uniformity of the dyeing condition and feel was maintained for a long time even when the content of each component was changed. On the other hand, as shown in Comparative Example 1, with the composition not containing component (A), the degree of dyeing and the feel were not uniform even immediately after dyeing the hair.

[0108] Furthermore, as shown in Comparative Examples 2 and 3, even when a composition containing propylene glycol or dipropylene glycol, which is a polyhydric alcohol with an IOB value of less than 3.5, instead of (A) a polyhydric alcohol with an IOB value of 3.5 or more, was used, the uniformity of the dyeing condition and feel was not uniform immediately after dyeing the hair.

[0109] As shown in Comparative Example 4, with the composition not containing component (B), the degree of dyeing and the feel were not uniform immediately after dyeing the hair. Furthermore, as shown in Comparative Examples 5 and 6, even in the case of a composition containing liquid paraffin or cetyl ethylhexanoate, which is an oily component that is liquid at room temperature, instead of (B) an oily component that is solid or pasty at room temperature, the degree of dyeing and the uniformity of the feel were not uniform immediately after dyeing the hair.

[0110] As shown in Comparative Example 7, the composition containing neither component (A) nor component (B) showed poor long-lasting uniformity of dyeing and feel compared to the compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 6 containing either component (A) or component (B).

[0111] As shown in Comparative Example 8, with the composition not containing component (D), the color and feel immediately after dyeing were uniform, but this uniformity did not last long.
