PURPOSE: To prepare a shampoo composition, capable of softening and facilitating the handling of hair by adding a surfactant, an insoluble nonvolatile silicone, a specific suspended polymer and mica coated with titanium dioxide in a specified proportion to water. CONSTITUTION: This shampoo composition is prepared by adding an anionic surfactant (sodium lauryl ether sulfate EO, etc., are especially preferred), a nonionic surfactant or an amphoteric surfactant (cocobetaine is especially preferred), 0.01-10wt.% insoluble nonvolatile silicone (a polydimethylsiloxane, etc., are especially preferred), 0.1-5wt.% suspended polymer selected from an acrylic acid-based polymer or a copolymer containing the polymer and 0.01-5wt.% mica coated with titanium dioxide (preferably having 2-150μm average paritcle size) to water. |
