A waving lotion for cold waving, ironing or straightening curly hair is obtained by using an alkali metal salt or ammonium salt of carboxymethylcellulose having a degree of etherification of at least 2.0 as a thickening spreader for the waving lotion. The hair is treated with the waving lotion by a specified method. The operation can be effectively conducted, since the waving lotion has an excellent storability and satisfactory properties necessitated for various uses, such as viscosity, fluidity, uniform spreadability and affinity for the hair. |
