122 JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY OF COSMETIC CHEMISTS At the present time there are no adequate techniques published for measuring hair manageability and ease of wet combing. Mills, Ester and Henkin (11) described a technique for measuring static charge developed on hair. This technique was excellent for measuring reduction of static charge on the hair after the application of creme rinses but was inadequate for distinguishing difi:erences in the action of detergents on the hair. When adequate tests are developed for reliably measuring hair manage- ability, we will have taken a giant step forward toward being able to pre- dict with the aid of laboratory tests the potential consumer acceptance of a new shampoo The study of shampoos continues to show that many factors contribute to their acceptance or rejection. When synthetic detergents are formulated without additives, we discover again that cleansing action is not the whole story in a shampoo. As better and more extensive laboratory tests are available, we are coming closer to the time when we can predict a cosmeti- cally acceptable and successful shampoo from laboratory tests. , REFERENCES (1) Zussman, H.
