{Object} To provide an oil-in-water emulsified hair cosmetic of the present invention manifests good absorption and spreadability into the hair, doesn't cause dripping during use, and yet has an aesthetic appearance of transparent or semi-transparent gel despite the fact that it has a high mending effect and a rich sensation as is found in oil-based hair care agents. {Means to achieve the object} (a) Silicones chosen from high polymer silicone that is gum-like or has a viscosity of 1 million cs or higher, silicone with both ends hydroxy-modified, amino-modified silicone, ammonium-modified silicone, and polyalkylene glycol-modified silicone: 0.1-10 wt%, (b) Dimethylpolysiloxane having a viscosity of 100 cs or less: 0.5-79 wt%, (c) Polyhydric alcohol: 1-25 wt%, and (d) Hydrophilic surfactant: 1-10 wt% are blended in, the blend ratio of the oil phase is made to be 50-80 wt%, and the blend ratio (mass ratio) between (a) and (b) is made to be (a) : (b) = 1 : 5 - 1 : 100.本發明之課題在於提供一種水中油型乳化毛髮化妝料，其對毛髮之適應性及延展性良好，使用時不會滴落，且具有如油性護髮劑般之豐厚感與高修補效果，並且具有透明或半透明之凝膠狀之美觀外觀。摻合(a)選自膠狀或者黏度為100萬cs以上之高分子聚矽氧、兩末端羥基改質聚矽氧、胺基改質聚矽氧、銨改質聚矽氧及聚亞烷基二醇改質聚矽氧中之聚矽氧0.1～10質量%、(b)黏度為100 cs以下之二甲基聚矽氧烷0.5～79質量%、(c)多元醇1～25質量%、以及(d)親水性界面活性劑1～10質量%，油相之摻合量為50～80質量%，(a)與(b)之摻合比例(質量比)為(a)：(b)=1：5～1：100。
