Preparation and Evaluation of Polyherbal Shampoo

The study focused on developing a polyherbal shampoo using herbal extracts such as Azadirachta indica, Zingiber officinale, Citrus limon, Parkinsonia aculeata, Emblica officinalis, and Ocimum sanctum as alternatives to chemical-based shampoos, which were associated with side effects like irritation and hair loss. The formulated shampoo aimed to offer better safety and efficacy. It underwent various evaluations, including visual inspection, pH measurement, percentage of solid contents, dirt dispersion, viscosity, foaming ability, foam stability, and surface tension, to ensure its effectiveness and safety as a hair care product.
