Abstract

In this study, we conducted a compositional analysis of five darkening shampoos available in the South Korean market and evaluated their active ingredients and safety based on the analysis results. GC-MS analysis was employed to identify the main components of each shampoo, revealing discrepancies between the detected compounds and the ingredient lists provided by the manufacturers. These differences are interpreted as being due to the limitations of the GC-MS analysis and the volatility of certain compounds. Further investigations were carried out to explore compounds potentially contributing to hair darkening. However, it was not definitively concluded that these compounds are directly involved in the hair darkening process. It is speculated that they may enhance hair care product performance and offer additional benefits to hair, or improve product texture, stability, or preservation. Additionally, the GC-MS analysis identified several compounds with potential safety concerns, necessitating caution when used as cosmetic ingredients.

본 연구에서는 국내 시장에서 판매되는 다크닝 샴푸 5종에 대한 성분 분석을 실시하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 해당 제품들의 유효 성분과 안전성에 대해 평가하였다. GC-MS 분석을 통해 각 샴푸의 주요 성분을 확인한 결과, 제조사가 표기한 전성분 목록과 일부 차이가 있는 화합물들이 검출되었다. 이는 GC-MS 분석의 한계와 특정 화합물의 휘발성 여부에 따른 것으로 해석된다. 이러한 분석을 바탕으로, 모발의 색상 변화에 기여할 가능성이 있는 화합물을 조사하였다. 그러나 이러한 화합물들이 모발 다크닝 과정 자체에 직접적으로 관련된 역할을 하는 성분이라고 단정지을 수는 없었다. 다만 헤어 케어 제품의 성능을 향상시키고 모발에 대한 일부 추가적인 이점을 제공하거나 제품의 질감, 안정성 또는 보존 등의 특성을 향상시키는 역할을 하는 것으로 추정할 수 있었다. 또한 GC-MS 성분 분석 결과, 확인된 성분 중 안전성이 우려되는 화합물에 대한 조사를 통해 화장품 원료로 사용될 경우 주의가 필요한 몇 가지 화합물에 대한 정보를 제시하였다.
