Studysummary This study explored the development of herbal hair gels using natural extracts like flaxseed and guava leaves, targeting the reduction of dandruff and regulation of hair loss through antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, though specific results of efficacy are not reported. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
Herbal hair gels, made from natural ingredients like flax seed and guava leaves extracts, show promise in reducing dandruff and regulating hair loss, which is often caused by microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus and Candida species. Flaxseed provides a strong base for hair strengthening, reducing hair fall, and treating the scalp due to its antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. These gels aim to repair damage caused by chemicals in commercial products. The study evaluated the gels based on color, transparency, smell, visual appearance, and presence of foreign particles, with a focus on the pharmacological evaluation of chia seed extract and aloe vera transemul gel.
