TLDR The polyherbal hair oil with Vitamin B7 may increase hair growth, reduce hair loss, and protect against dandruff.
The study focused on the preparation and evaluation of a polyherbal hair oil enriched with Vitamin B7, using extracts from hibiscus rosa sinensis flowers, curry leaves, henna leaves, fenugreek seeds, tulsi leaves, and shikakai. The oil was further enhanced by the addition of Vitamin B7 capsules, which are known to stimulate keratin production. The oil underwent various tests, including phytochemical screening, organoleptic characterization, physical evaluation, specific gravity, pH, stability, and antimicrobial assays using the cup plate method. The antimicrobial properties were found to help reduce dandruff and improve scalp health, while the oil's antioxidant activity was assessed through DPPH radical scavenging activity. The study concluded that the polyherbal hair oil formulation could potentially increase hair growth, reduce hair loss, and protect against dandruff.
