Description

  The present invention relates to a hair cosmetic used for wave or straight or curly hair correction in a hairdressing salon or the like, and for use in home hair, such as comb hair or bed rest. More specifically, in the present invention, the reducing agent and tannin are blended at the same time, and when they are used, the damage to the hair is reduced, and the shape deformation and feel improvement effect due to the bond conversion of fibers, hair, etc. can be easily performed in a short time. The present invention relates to a hair cosmetic composition.

  Conventionally, for hair shape conversion, wave set, straight, etc., it is common to cut and recombine various bonds such as hydrogen bonds, salt bonds, disulfide bonds, peptide bonds between amino acids present in hair In particular, it is known that it is effective to chemically break and recombine disulfide bonds in order to maintain the wave of hair.

  For the cleavage of disulfide bonds, the first agent mainly containing a reducing agent such as thioglycolic acid, cysteine, acetylcysteine, cysteamine, thioglycerin, thiolactic acid, butyrolactone thiol or salts thereof is used as a reducing agent. After partially reducing and softening the disulfide bond (-S-S-) of keratin, it is cleaved with a second agent mainly composed of an oxidizing agent having strong oxidizing power such as bromate and hydrogen peroxide. The resulting disulfide bonds are recombined to change the shape of the hair, forming waves and straights.

  Specifically, in the perm process, when the first agent containing a reducing agent is applied while the hair is lightly moistened with water and wound around a lot or the like, the disulfide bond is cut and the hair follows the shape of the lot. . After that, when oxidized with a second agent containing an oxidizing agent, a technique has been put into practical use in which disulfide bonds are recombined while maintaining the shape of a lot and the shape is maintained (Patent Document 1).

  Basically, the same principle is used to use a reducing agent and an oxidizing agent. When straightening the hair, a physical force is applied using a comb or a trowel, etc. It has become.

  However, if the treatments such as permanent wave, straight set and curly hair straightening as described above are repeated, peptides in the hair will flow out due to strong chemical action by the reducing agent and oxidizing agent, and further, the hair tissue and microstructure In many cases, damage or modification can cause deterioration of the elasticity or strength of the hair.

  In addition, after the first agent's reaction with the reducing agent, after washing with intermediate water on a shampoo table, applying the second agent's oxidizing agent and allowing it to stand for 10 to 15 minutes is also accompanied by great pain for the patient.

  On the other hand, although a one-bath type permanent agent containing sulfite and the like that does not require the second agent has been proposed (Patent Document 2), this is in a state where the hair is wound in a lot after the first agent treatment. Rinse with water, wash away the first agent, and leave the hair wrapped in a lot for natural standing for 10 to 20 minutes to oxidize with air. Not. Furthermore, there is a drawback that hair damage is increased due to insufficient air oxidation.

  In addition, the current permanent wave, straight set, and hair straightener, which are based on a highly concentrated mercaptan-based reducing agent with strong odor, are devised to mask unpleasant odors with perfumes. Is still inadequate.

  At the same time as the permanent treatment, one or more tannic acids and tannin compounds are used as the first agent of the permanent solution, an oxidizing agent such as peroxide is used as the second agent, and an iron compound is used as the coloring aid. Although a method capable of performing hair dyeing treatment is disclosed (Patent Document 3), it is not an easy solution for a short time and is not an essential solution for suppressing hair damage.

  In addition, the present applicants are tannin cross-linking agents mainly composed of tannin that has been previously reduced in an alkaline region of pH 8 to 10 and further activated by reduction action with sulfite, and between polypeptide chains in the hair. The present invention provides a hair set treating agent capable of correcting a wave set of hair, a straight set of comb hair, correction of curly hair, etc. by generating a large number of tannin cross-linked three-dimensional network structures. This achieves the above-mentioned problem, but studies on hair cosmetics capable of performing wave wave setting of hair, straight setting of comb hair, correction of curly hair, etc. even in a wider range of pH have been conducted.

  The present invention seeks to solve the problems associated with the prior art as described above. In other words, the conventional two-bath type permanent wave, straight set and curly hair straightening, and the one bath type permanent wave, straight set and straight hair straightening are intended to improve the disadvantages, while suppressing damage to the hair, Reduces discomfort caused by mercaptan odor and post-treatment hair odor during treatment for practitioners and patients. Furthermore, the present invention aims to provide a hair cosmetic having an improved shape deformation / feel improvement effect, which can simplify the conventional process, reduce the treatment time, and alleviate the pain of the practitioner.

  As a result of intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have found that a reducing agent that cleaves disulfide bonds between keratin molecules in hair by a reducing action in the range of pH 6 to 10, an odorless and safe and safe. By simultaneously using tannin that can be used with heart, in the presence of a reducing agent, a tannin cross-linking bond instead of a disulfide bond is generated between the polypeptide chains in the hair, thereby cleaving the hair waveset and the internal distortion of the hair. Uses a hair cosmetic that has features that enable easy recombination of hair straight set and hair straightening, etc., and that suppresses damage to hair, and is effective in deforming hair and improving touch I found out that it can be achieved. That is, this invention relates to the hair cosmetics as shown below.

  The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention contains a reducing agent and tannin in one agent at the same time when wave or straight or curly hair correction is performed on the hair in a hairdressing salon etc. Therefore, there is little damage to hair, and it has an effect of improving shape deformation and feel by binding conversion of fibers, hair, etc. easily in a short time.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.
The present invention relates to keratin molecules in hair selected from the group consisting of one or more organic or inorganic tannins of natural or synthetic origin, and sulfites and combinations of sulfites and mercaptan-based reducing agents. Provided is a hair cosmetic composition having a pH of 6 to 10, comprising one or more reducing agents that cleave interdisulfide bonds.

The tannin used in the present invention includes any organic or inorganic hydrolyzed tannin or condensed tannin of natural or synthetic origin, and is not particularly limited, but natural products generally include tannin from plant raw materials. It may also contain non-tannins extracted at the same time. The hair cosmetic of the present invention is not particularly limited to conventionally known tannins, and one or two or more tannins can be appropriately used in combination. In particular, catechol-based condensed tannin is preferably used.
In general, when catechol-based condensed tannin having a large molecular weight is used for damaged hair, the keratin molecule variation in the hair and the polypeptide chain spacing are expanded, so that the formation of a three-dimensional network structure of tannin crosslinks is generated. It becomes advantageous and the cross-linking effect works effectively.

  Examples of the condensed tannin include quebracho tannin, wattle tannin, green tea tannin, mangrove tannin, Gambian tannin, and persimmon astringent tannin, which can be appropriately used alone or in combination of two or more. Persimmon tannin, wattle tannin, quebracho tannin and green tea tannin are preferred, and quebracho tannin and green tea tannin are more preferred.

In addition, since the degree of damage varies depending on the hair tip part, middle part, and root rebirth part, hair is mixed with pyrogallol hydrolyzable tannin with low molecular weight, mainly catechol-based condensed tannin with high molecular weight. By using a thing and prescribing it corresponding to all those parts, an excellent setting effect and a straight effect are exhibited.
Examples of the hydrolyzable tannin include pentaploid tannin, gallic tannin, chestnut tannin, mylobaran tannin, oak tannin and the like, and one or a combination of two or more can be used as appropriate. Preferable are gallic tannin, milovalan tannin, pentaploid tannin and chestnut tannin, and more preferred are pentaploid tannin and chestnut tannin.

  Although the density | concentration of the said tannin is not specifically limited, 0.001-10 mass% is preferable with respect to the total mass of the cosmetics for hair, Furthermore, 0.05-5 mass% is more preferable. If the tannin content is less than 0.001% by mass, the effect may not be sufficiently exhibited. On the other hand, if the tannin content is more than 10% by mass, the hair is squeezed or stiff. It is not preferable because the feeling of sticking or the like is deteriorated and a dosage form such as cream or lotion cannot be obtained and the effect may be reduced. In the present specification, the term “%” simply means “% by mass”.

  In addition, the amount of tannin bound to the hair generally increases in penetrating power as the tannin concentration increases, but in condensed tannins with strong binding power, the tannin molecules become aggregated when the concentration exceeds a certain level, and conversely decreases. It was also confirmed that there was a risk of doing so.

The reducing agent used in the present invention cleaves disulfide bonds between keratin molecules in hair used in the technical field such as wave or straightening and hair straightening, such as sulfites and mercabtan reducing agents. Although any reducing agent is included, the use of sulfite alone and the combination of sulfite and a mercabtan reducing agent are preferred. The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention is not particularly limited to conventionally known reducing agents, and can be appropriately used singly or in combination of two or more. The compounding quantity of sulfites exists in the range of 1-9 mass% with respect to the total mass of cosmetics for hair. If it is less than 1% by mass, the reducing power is not sufficient, and if it exceeds 9% by mass, the hair is seriously damaged.
As the mercaptan-based reducing agent, thioglycolic acid, cysteine, acetylcysteine, cysteamine, thioglycerin, thiolactic acid, butyrolactone thiol, or a mixture of two or more thereof is used. The compounding quantity of these mercaptan-type reducing agents is 0.1-5 mass% with respect to the total mass of cosmetics for hair. If it is less than 0.1% by mass, the reducing power is not sufficient, and if it exceeds 5% by mass, the hair is seriously damaged and the unpleasant odor is strong.

  Moreover, it is preferable to contain at least one selected from urea, guanidine carbonate, sodium lactate, salicylic acid and the like as a component for promoting chain opening of hydrogen bonds and salt bonds. The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention can be suitably used singly or in combination of two or more kinds without being particularly limited to conventionally known chain-opening promoting components. The compounding quantity of a hydrogen bond chain-opening acceleration | stimulation component is 0.1-3 mass% with respect to the total mass of cosmetics for hair. When the amount is less than 0.1% by mass, the hydrogen bond or the salt bond is not sufficiently opened, and when the amount exceeds 3% by mass, the effect is not improved.

  The cosmetic for hair of the present invention is adjusted to pH 6 to 10, more preferably pH 6 to 8, by adding an alkaline agent as a pH adjusting component. When the pH is less than 6, the hair swells little and the activity of the reducing agent becomes low. When the pH exceeds 10, the damage to the hair increases, which is not preferable.

  Although it does not specifically limit as an alkaline agent, Ammonia water, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, monoisopropanolamine, diisopropanolamine, 2- Other inorganic alkaline substances and amines such as amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, ammonium chloride, trisodium phosphate, trisodium citrate, L-arginine, etc., and one of these Alternatively, from the viewpoint of adding two or more in combination and reducing irritation to the hair and scalp of the user, it is preferable to adjust the hair cosmetic to pH 6-10, more preferably pH 6-8, More preferably, the pH is adjusted to 6 or more and less than 8. That.

  Moreover, in the cosmetic for hair of this invention, you may add the direct dye for performing a hair dyeing process simultaneously with the wave or straight or hair curling correction to hair. Direct dyes include acid dyes, basic dyes and HC dyes. The hair cosmetic composition of the present invention is not particularly limited to conventionally known direct dyes, and can be appropriately used singly or in combination of two or more. The compounding quantity of a direct dye is 0.0001-10 mass% with respect to the total mass of the cosmetics for hair. If it is less than 0.0001% by mass, the dyeing power on the hair is insufficient, and if it exceeds 10% by mass, the dyeing effect is not improved and the stability of the dosage form cannot be obtained.

The tannin in the present invention may be mixed with a penetrating agent such as an anionic surfactant or a nonionic surfactant in order to enhance the penetration into the hair.
In order to further improve solubility and permeability, at least one monohydric alcohol selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol and benzyl alcohol, glycerin, 1,3-BG, propylene glycol, A polar organic solvent such as at least one polyhydric alcohol selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol and hexylene glycol, or water may be used, and these may be used alone or in combination of two or more. May be. In particular, an alcohol having a hydroxyl group is preferable, and a monovalent lower alcohol represented by ethanol is more preferable.

  The cosmetics for hair of the composition of the present invention are also other ingredients such as a moisturizer, astringent, refreshing agent, antioxidant, as needed, as long as the effects are not hindered by the components usually used in cosmetics and the like. UV absorbers, high molecular weight polymer agents such as cationic, anionic, amphoteric or nonionic, liquid oils, solid oil waxes, ester oils, hydrocarbon oils, higher alcohols, sterol oils, thickeners, gelling Agents, fluorine compounds, silicones, pH stabilizers, chelating agents, anti-inflammatory agents, plant extracts, protein hydrolysates, amino acids, solvents, alcohols, organic acids, powder ingredients, preservatives, colorants, water, fragrances Etc. can be appropriately added and blended as necessary, but is not limited thereto.

  Further, the form of the cosmetic for hair can be prepared in various forms and is not particularly limited. For example, cream, lotion, gel, paste, powder, solid, foam, spray In order to make it foamy, a propellant such as LPG, DME, or hexane is mainly blended, and a non-gas foaming type may be used.

  When the cosmetic for hair of the present invention is used for the purpose of permanent wave, straight set, curly hair correction, etc., it is applied at a treatment temperature of 30-60 ° C. in order to enhance the cross-linking effect of tannin. For 10 to 30 minutes.

  In using the cosmetic for hair of the present invention as a permanent wave agent, the hair is wound around a lot after applying the agent to the hair, and heated at a heating temperature of 30 to 60 ° C, preferably 40 to 50 ° C. If it is 30 ° C. or less, it takes too much time and it is difficult to obtain a sufficient effect, and if it is 60 ° C. or more, the hair is greatly damaged and the touch tends to deteriorate. In addition, although the heating method is not specifically limited, It is preferable to make it act in water vapor | steam atmosphere using the steamer etc. which are used for a permanent wave process during heating process time. Further, the treatment time varies depending on the properties and state of the hair, but a treatment time of 15 to 30 minutes is required at 40 to 50 ° C. When the treatment temperature is increased to 50 to 55 ° C., the penetration rate and reaction rate of the components are increased, and the treatment time can be shortened to 10 to 20 minutes.

In addition, when used as a straight set or straightening hair, after applying the hair cosmetic of the present invention to the hair, applying a physical force using a comb or the like to straighten the hair, the heating temperature Is heated to 30 to 60 ° C, preferably 40 to 50 ° C. Below 30 ° C., it takes too much time and it is difficult to obtain a sufficient straight effect. Above 60 ° C., hair damage is large and the touch tends to be poor.
In addition, although the heating method is not specifically limited, It is preferable to make it act in water vapor | steam atmosphere using the steamer etc. which are used for a permanent wave process during heating process time. Further, the treatment time varies depending on the properties and state of the hair, but a treatment time of 15 to 30 minutes is required at 40 to 50 ° C. When the treatment temperature is increased to 50 to 55 ° C., the penetration rate and reaction rate of the components are increased, and the treatment time can be shortened to 10 to 20 minutes. As an alternative, it is also preferred to be used in a usage using a high-temperature hair iron.

Furthermore, in using as a comb hair straightening, after applying the cosmetic for hair of the present invention to the hair, it is combed and stretched with a comb or a trowel, and then left as it is for a while.
Moreover, it is also preferable that drying with a dryer and a hair iron are used as needed.
