Formulation and Evaluation of Polyherbal Shampoo to Promote Hair Growth and Provide Antidandruff Action Using Poly Herbal Extract

Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop and assess a polyherbal shampoo that is free from synthetic chemicals, utilizing herbal extracts as an alternative to conventional chemical-based shampoos. This approach aims to offer a safer and more effective option for hair care. The proposed shampoo is designed to address multiple hair concerns, including dirt and dandruff removal, hair growth promotion, enhancement of luster, strengthening, and darkening of hair strands. The shampoo formulation incorporates a blend of herbal extracts derived from Hibiscus Flowers, Pomegranate Peels, Neem Leaves, Curry Leaves, Shikakai, and Amla Fruit, each in varying proportions. Subsequently, the formulated shampoo underwent a series of evaluations, including tests for pH levels, visual inspection, % of solids content, viscosity, dirt dispersion, foaming ability, foam stability, surface tension, and other relevant parameters.
