TLDR The homemade hair oil made from natural ingredients helps hair grow, reduces hair fall, dandruff, and graying, and makes hair shiny with few or no side effects.
The study aimed to formulate a polyherbal hair oil using various herbs including Cocos nucifera (oil), Ricinus communis (oil), Brassica juncea (oil), Trigonella foenum-graecum (Seeds), Murraya koenigii (Leaf), Hibiscus rosa-sinensis (Flowers), Nigella sativa (seeds), and Cinnamomum camphora. These ingredients are rich in phytochemicals, vitamins, proteins, antioxidants, and other constituents important for hair growth and rejuvenation. The hair oil was evaluated using parameters such as sensitivity test, acid value, saponification value, phytochemical screening, pH, specific gravity, viscosity, and irritation test. The results showed that all evaluation values were within acceptable limits and the herbal oil had minimal or zero adverse effects compared to market formulations. The conclusion of the study is that the formulated hair oil boosts hair growth, decreases hair fall, dandruff, gray hair, and gives lustrous and shiny hairs.
