TLDR The polyherbal hair oil is stable, cosmetically acceptable, and a potential natural alternative to synthetic hair products.
The study focused on developing and evaluating a polyherbal hair oil containing Trigonella foenum-graecum and other herbal ingredients, formulated in a blend of coconut, almond, and castor oils. Four formulations were created using a controlled hot infusion technique, and they were assessed for various physicochemical properties. Formulation F3 showed optimal viscosity, balanced pH (5.4), and satisfactory spreadability, maintaining stability over 30 days without phase separation or rancidity. The results indicate that the polyherbal hair oil is physically stable and cosmetically acceptable, suggesting its potential as a natural alternative to synthetic hair care products. Further clinical evaluation is recommended to confirm its therapeutic efficacy.
