This study developed a multifunctional organic hair cream using natural extracts from onion, garlic, aloe vera, turmeric, neem leaves, hibiscus flower, lemon grass, and curry leaves. Three cream samples with varying extract concentrations (5%, 10%, 15%) were analyzed. Sample C (15%) was the most stable and effective, showing desirable texture, ease of application, and strong antimicrobial and antifungal activities, which contribute to scalp protection. It also improved hair strength and sheen more effectively than synthetic creams. The study supports using organic ingredients for safe, effective, and sustainable hair-care products, highlighting a promising direction for future cosmetic innovations.
