PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hair conditioning agent making it possible that fingers are smoothly passed through hair without friction, when the hair is washed and rinsed, smoothness is sustained, when the hair is rinsed, and a comb is well passed through the hair, after the hair is dried, and to provide a hair washing agent composition.SOLUTION: This hair conditioning agent contains a cationic group-containing polymer which is formed by using monomers, for example, expressed by formula (I), etc., and a crosslinkable monomer as constituent monomers, wherein physical properties of the polymer obtained from measurement of dynamic shear viscoelasticity on a 2.5 wt.% solution thereof in ion-exchanged water at 25°C comprise a dynamic modulus of 1-50 Pa and a loss tangent (Tan&delta) of 0.1-0.25 at a frequency of 5Hz and a strain of 1%. Further, the hair washing agent composition contains the polymer.COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT【課題】 洗髪時及び濯ぎ時の指通りが滑らかで軋みがなく、濯ぎ時の滑らかさの持続性があり、乾燥後の櫛どおりが良い毛髪用コンディショニング剤及び毛髪用洗浄剤組成物の提供。【解決手段】 例えば式(I)等で表されるモノマー及び架橋性モノマーを構成モノマーとするカチオン性基含有ポリマーで、該ポリマーの2.5重量%イオン交換水溶液の25℃における動的ずり粘弾性によって得られる物性値が、周波数5Hz、ひずみ1%の時、動的弾性率が1~50Pa、損失正接(Tanδ)が0.1~0.25であるポリマーを含有する毛髪用コンディショニング剤、及びこのポリマーを含有する毛髪用洗浄剤組成物。【選択図】 なし
