This review highlights Neelibhringadi Hair Oil as a traditional Ayurvedic option for managing hair issues like dandruff and thinning, supported by its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, but emphasizes the need for modern clinical trials to confirm its effectiveness.
October 2025 in “Journal of Advances in Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences” This study reported that Neelibhringadi Kera Tailam, a traditional Ayurvedic herbal oil, contains bioactive compounds that may support hair health by stimulating growth, providing antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, and preventing hair loss, as evidenced by its physicochemical, phytochemical, and GC-MS analyses.
In this study, Neeli Bhringadi hair oil showed statistically significant improvements in hair growth rate, density, thickness, and reduction in premature graying on participants with androgenetic alopecia and hair graying over 120 days, supporting its potential use in integrative hair care.
December 2021 in “International research journal of pharmacy” This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of Neelibhringadi keratailam and found significant variations in market samples compared to a prepared sample, indicating potential quality control issues.
This study proposed a new standardized in vitro framework using human hair tresses to evaluate cosmetic hair product performance and found significant improvements in hair breakage, tensile strength, shine, volume, and frizz control compared to a control group without such changes.
