History
Before the advent of shampoos, people typically used soap for personal care.
However, soap had the distinct disadvantages of being irritating to the eyes
and incompatible with hard water, which made it leave a dull-looking film
on the hair. In the early 1930s, the first synthetic detergent shampoo was
introduced, although it still had some disadvantages. The 1960s brought the
detergent technology we use today.
Over the years, many improvements have been made to shampoo
formulations. New detergents are less irritating to the eyes and skin and have
improved health and environmental qualities. Also, materials technology has
advanced, enabling the incorporation of thousands of beneficial ingredients
in shampoos, leaving hair feeling cleaner and better conditioned.
Raw Materials
New shampoos are initially created by cosmetic chemists in the laboratory.
These scientists begin by determining what characteristics the shampoo
formula will have. They must decide on aesthetic features such as how thick
it should be, what color it will be, and what it will smell like. They also
consider performance attributes, such as how well it cleans, what the foam
looks like, and how irritating it will be. Consumer testing often helps
determine what these characteristics should be.
Once the features of the shampoo are identified, a formula is created in the
laboratory. These initial batches are made in small beakers using various
ingredients. In the personal care industry, nearly all of the ingredients that
can be used are classified by the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance
Association (CTFA) in the governmentally approved collection known as the
International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI). The more
important ingredients in shampoo formulations are water, detergents, foam
boosters, thickeners, conditioning agents, preservatives, modifiers, and
special additives.
