Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: A common way to enhance beauty is using hair coloring. This study sought to develop a natural hair coloring ingredient that could reduce hair damage.
Method: First, Opuntia humifusa powder, or eastern prickly pear cactus powder, was applied to samples of virgin hair and three bleached hair levels (levels 7, 9, and 11), after which the samples were heated either for 10 min or 20 min and then washed. To assess the dyeing effectiveness, the samples’ L*, a*, b*, and C* decoloring values were compared, and to analyze the hair texture, tensile strength was measured.
Results: It was found that the L*, a*, b*, and C* values and the K/ S values were greater in the hair samples that had been heated for 20 min, and the tensile strength of samples coated Opuntia humifusa was higher than that of bleached hair samples. No color fading was observed when the samples were measured 5 days after the dyeing. After being dyed with the Opuntia humifusa , an increase in the L*, a*, b*, and C* values and an improvement in tensile strength and hair texture was observed.
Conclusion: Therefore, it appears that Opuntia humifusa could be an effective natural coloring ingredient that could improve hair strength and texture.
