The invention relates to the technical field of daily chemicals, and discloses a
silicone oil-free
shampoo composition containing
polyquaternium-51 and a preparation method thereof, the composition comprises a mild surfactant, an
ion gradient builder, the
polyquaternium-51 and low molecular weight
hydrolyzed protein which are specifically combined. The core of the bulking technology is that the preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a core premix from
polyquaternium-51 and a specific synergistic component in advance, blending the core premix into a main water phase containing an
ion gradient
building agent at a controlled rate, and finally adjusting the pH value to 5.0-6.0. According to the method, an inside and outside synergistic fluffy repairing
system is constructed, so that ordered deposition of active matters on the surface of the hair and effective filling of the inside of the hair are ensured. The prepared composition is high in stability, can endow hair with an instant, lasting and non-dry fluffy effect, remarkably improves
carding smoothness and natural gloss, and is suitable for fine, soft and collapsed hair so as to realize long-acting fluffy effect after cleaning.
