The study focused on creating and analyzing two types of herbal shampoos using goat milk and natural extracts. Shampoo 1 included celery leaf, banana knot, and pegagan leaf extracts, while Shampoo 2 contained noni, mangkokan leaf, and spinach extracts. Both shampoos were light brown, transparent, and had a pleasant odor. The physicochemical properties of Shampoo 1 were a pH of 5.25, solid content of 29.17%, surface tension of 51.17 dyne/cm, and foam ability of 9.50 mL. Shampoo 2 had a pH of 5.5, solid content of 29.67%, surface tension of 44.63 dyne/cm, and foam ability of 15.0 mL. The herbal shampoos demonstrated physicochemical properties comparable to commercial shampoos, suggesting their potential as natural alternatives.
