Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Hair Gel Containing Curry Leaf Extract and Flax Seed Extract

The study developed a herbal hair gel using curry leaf and flaxseed extracts, aiming to promote hair growth and reduce hair fall. Five formulations (F1-F5) were evaluated for color, odor, texture, pH, viscosity, spreadability, and antimicrobial activity. Phytochemical analysis confirmed beneficial compounds like alkaloids, saponins, and flavonoids in the extracts. The results showed the gel effectively promotes hair growth and reduces hair fall, suggesting the potential of natural ingredients in cosmetic products. The gel also demonstrated good texture, stability, and sensory appeal, making it a suitable natural alternative to chemical-based styling products.
