This study developed a herbal hair wax stick using natural ingredients like Tulsi, Amla, and Bhringraj extracts, combined with a wax base of beeswax and natural oils, to offer both styling and hair care benefits. Three formulations (F1, F2, and F3) were evaluated for physical properties, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activities. Phytochemical analysis confirmed the presence of beneficial compounds such as flavonoids and phenolics. Formulation F3 demonstrated the best performance with suitable pH, good spreadability, and higher antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. The study concludes that this herbal hair wax stick is a safe, stable, and effective natural alternative to synthetic hair styling products.
