Formulation and Evaluation of Polyherbal Hair Oil
Studysummary This study suggests that a polyherbal hair oil formulation, using traditional herbs like hibiscus and amla, may benefit hair growth, darken white hair, protect against dandruff, and result in shiny hair. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
The study formulated a polyherbal hair oil using herbs like hibiscus, shikekai, amla, neem, curry leaves, aloe vera, and coconut oil, traditionally known for promoting hair growth. The oil was evaluated on parameters such as phytochemicals, density, pH, viscosity, acid value, and saponification value, and passed a primary skin irritation test. The results indicated that the oil is effective in promoting hair growth, darkening white hair, protecting against dandruff, and providing shiny hair.
