    This study investigates the formulation and evaluation of celery leaf extract (Apium graveolens L) shampoo for hair growth. The experimental research tested different concentrations of celery leaf extract (0%, 2%, 3%, 4%) in shampoo formulations. Evaluations included organoleptic tests, foam height, viscosity, pH, and shampoo type. Results showed that the 2% celery leaf extract formulation (F1) performed best, closely resembling the control formulation in terms of physical and chemical properties. The study concludes that the 2% extract formulation is optimal for hair growth stimulation.
