Abstract
This work presents the development of hair treatment cream by using keratin protein. Keratin derived from chicken feather is used as an active ingredient in the hair treatment cream. The extracted keratin protein will act as replacement for the damaged or missing keratin inside the hair since it has a huge advantage in repairing damaged hair. It can also add smoothness to the hair and reducing the brittle cuticle cells. The objectives of this experiment are to formulate a hair treatment cream by using keratin protein and to analyze and characterize the properties of the hair treatment cream and the treated hair. Hair damage can happen when the protective cuticle cell of the hair is weakened and vulnerable therefore a hair treatment cream is needed to overcome this problem. Furthermore, the cuticle cells would not be able to protect its inner layer from the brittleness of hair and this will lead to a dry hair and splits end occurrence. Therefore, the treatment cream developed will improve the surface layer of the damaged hair. The formulation is made by mixing both oil and water phase at desire temperature and finally mix the solution until it homogenize. Both oil and water phase are prepared separately at the desired temperature and then after both solution are stable, they are mixed together to form the complete hair treatment cream. There were six analysis perform to test the cream stability and it capability to repair the damaged hair. All the results show a positive result in the stability of the cream and improving the damaged hair especially in repairing the hair surface. As the conclusion, the development of hair treatment cream by using keratin protein as an active ingredient managed to develop a good cream to treat the damaged hair by repairing the protein linkage especially on the hair surfaces.
