Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Shampoo

The study focused on formulating and evaluating a herbal shampoo using medicinal plant materials such as Neem, Shikakai, Amla, Aloe vera, Fenugreek, Hibiscus, Rosemary, and Jatamansi. The shampoo was designed to offer cleansing, conditioning, anti-dandruff, and hair growth-promoting properties. Evaluations of the shampoo showed it had acceptable organoleptic characteristics, good foaming ability, satisfactory cleansing action, a suitable pH for scalp application, and stability under storage conditions. The bioactive phytoconstituents from the herbal ingredients contributed to improved hair conditioning and scalp health. The formulation was deemed safe, effective, eco-friendly, and free from harsh synthetic chemicals.
