    TLDR Herbal depilatories are safer and cause fewer side effects than chemical ones for hair removal.
    The study emphasizes the advantages of using herbal depilatories over chemical ones for hair removal, particularly due to their higher efficacy, safety, and fewer side effects. It explores various hair removal methods, identifies herbs with depilatory properties, and discusses their use in creating herbal creams. The global hair removal products market was valued at $2.2 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2019 to 2025. Chemical depilatories often contain thioglycolic acid salts, sulphides, and stannites, which can cause rashes and other side effects with long-term use. In contrast, herbal depilatories use safe ingredients such as Turmeric, Indian nettle, Neem, Tanner’s cassia, Apple cider vinegar, and Paw-paw extract. The study also covers the importance of folklore herbal medicine and the preparation methods for both chemical and herbal depilatories.
