    TLDR The herbal oil significantly improved hair growth and reduced hair loss.
    The study investigated the effects of a formulated poly herbal hair repair oil on hair growth in Sprague Dawley rats. The oil, composed of various herbs and oils such as Hibiscus rosa sinensis, Murraya koenigii, and castor oil, was tested for its ability to promote hair growth and reduce hair loss. The results showed that the poly herbal hair repair oil significantly increased hair length and demonstrated superior efficacy, safety, and antioxidant activity compared to locally purchased hair oils. The study suggests that this herbal formulation could be a promising alternative to synthetic hair loss treatments.
