This study by M.L. Garcia and J. Diaz in 1976 compared the effects of two shampoo formulations (A and B) on hair combability using 16 hair swatches and 5 replicates per swatch. Combability measurements were taken after shampooing, with shampoo as a fixed factor and swatch as random. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed no significant formulation differences but revealed variation in combability with different swatches.

Nested Design Comparison of 2 Shampoo Formulations on Hair Combability M.L. Garcia and J. Diaz (1976). “Combability Measurements on Human Hair,” Journal of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, Vol.27 pp.379-398
Data Description • 2 Formulations of Shampoo (A and B) • 16 Hair Swatches Prepared (8 for A, 8 for B) • 5 Test Runs Made per Swatch (Replicates) • Combability Measurements made before and after shampooing (we consider only AFTER here) • Shampoo Treated as FIXED Factor, Swatch RANDOM • N=2x8x5=80 Measurements
Statistical Model Note: For Computational purposes, we will label the swatches 1,…,16 and not 1,…,8 separately for each shampoo
ANOVA – Tests of Factor Effects H0: a1 = a2 = 0 HA: a1≠ a2 T.S.: FForm = 0.112 (P=0.7390) Conclude no formulation differences on combability H0: sb2 = 0 HA: sb2> 0 T.S. FSwatch(F) = 9.43 (P=.0000) Conclude Swatch effects vary with respect to combability
