    TLDR Herbal shampoos with Neem and Tulsi might be safer and more effective for controlling dandruff.
    The document discusses the issue of dandruff, caused by the Pittosporum yeast, and the use of shampoo formulations with surfactants to manage it. It highlights that while dandruff cannot be completely eradicated, it can be controlled. The study focuses on the development and evaluation of an herbal shampoo as an alternative to synthetic antifungal agents, which can cause side effects such as hair loss and nausea. The herbal shampoo utilizes "Azadirachta indica" (Neem) and "Ocimum sanctum" (Tulsi) for their anti-dandruff properties. The study suggests that herbal shampoos may be more effective and safer than synthetic drugs for treating dandruff.
