Preparation And Evaluation Of Herbal Shampoo Using Custard Apple Leaves Extract, Vitamin E, Lemon Oil

The study developed a herbal shampoo using custard apple leaves, vitamin E, and lemon oil, evaluating its physical and chemical properties. The shampoo maintained a pH of 5.5, aligning with the scalp's natural acidity, and exhibited good cleansing ability, foam stability, and no skin irritation. It also demonstrated antimicrobial properties with a 10mm zone of inhibition against E. coli. The findings suggest that this herbal shampoo is safer than chemical alternatives, with potential benefits in reducing hair loss and promoting hair growth.
