Abstract

A water-repellent polyacrylonitrile-based synthetic hair fiber contains a polyacrylonitrile-based synthetic fiber (A) and a water repellent (B) attached to the polyacrylonitrile-based synthetic fiber (A). The water repellent (B) does not have a fluoro group and contains at least one selected from the group consisting of a dendrimer-based water repellent (B-1), an alkyl urethane-based water repellent (B-2), and condensation reaction type polydimethylsiloxane (B-3). The dendrimer-based water repellent (B-1) has an ester and/or urethane bond. The alkyl urethane-based water repellent (B-2) has a long-chain hydrocarbon side chain and is non-dendrimer-based. The condensation reaction type polydimethylsiloxane (B-3) has, at both terminals, a hydroxyl group, an organic group having a hydroxyl group, or an organic group capable of generating a hydroxyl group. The amount of the water repellent (B) attached is between 0.05 mass % and 1.0 mass % both inclusive with respect to a total mass of the polyacrylonitrile-based synthetic fiber (A).
