This review explores herbal approaches for managing premature hair greying (PHG), focusing on mechanisms, phytoconstituents, and delivery strategies. It highlights the limitations of synthetic dyes and emphasizes the potential of herbal remedies to maintain follicular melanin, enhance antioxidant defenses, and improve melanogenic pathways. Ethnopharmacological leads from Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Japanese Kampo, and Unani medicine include Eclipta alba, Emblica officinalis, and others, with phytoconstituents like gallic acid and wedelolactone. Advanced delivery systems such as ethosomes and nanostructured lipid carriers may enhance treatment efficacy. However, the review stresses the need for botanical authenticity, standardization, toxicological profiling, and controlled trials to validate these treatments, suggesting they remain evidence-developing until further human research is conducted.

The study investigates a polyherbal hair growth oil formulated with botanical substances like Bhringraj, Hibiscus Rosa Sinensis, Rosemary, Brahmi, and Vetiveria Zizanioides, using coconut, castor, and black seed oils as bases. The oil was prepared using an infusion technique and tested for physical properties, safety, and sensory characteristics. Results show that the oil is stable, non-irritating, and safe for external use. The herbal compounds exhibit synergistic effects that may promote hair growth through mechanisms such as follicle nourishment, improved scalp blood flow, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The research suggests that natural herbal treatments could be a sustainable and effective alternative to artificial hair treatments.

This review highlights the benefits of polyherbal hair oils, which combine multiple medicinal plant extracts to promote hair growth and improve scalp health. Key plants such as Amla, Bhringraj, Neem, Hibiscus, and Fenugreek are noted for their antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and hair growth–stimulating properties. The review discusses how these formulations address hair disorders like alopecia, dandruff, premature greying, and hair thinning through various biological pathways. It concludes that polyherbal hair oils are a scientifically validated, cost-effective, and sustainable alternative to synthetic products, with potential for large-scale production and clinical use.

The study developed a polyherbal anti-dandruff shampoo using medicinal plants such as Azadirachta indica, Ocimum tenuiflorum, and others, known for their antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. The shampoo's aqueous extract showed high levels of bioactive compounds like alkaloids and flavonoids, contributing to its effectiveness. The shampoo maintained a pH compatible with scalp health, exhibited significant antioxidant activity, and demonstrated antimicrobial effects against bacteria and fungi responsible for dandruff. The findings suggest that such herbal shampoos are effective and preferable alternatives to synthetic options for dandruff treatment.
