Abstract:
The creation and assessment of a polyherbal shampoo as a natural, chemical-free substitute for store-bought hair care products is the main objective of the study. This formulation uses botanically derived chemicals to provide gentle yet efficient cleansing, conditioning, and scalp nourishment, in contrast to traditional shampoos that contain sulfates, parabens, silicones, and artificial preservatives. The shampoo is enriched with Sidr (Ziziphus spina-christi), Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum), Moringa (Moringa oleifera), Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis), and Coco Glucoside, a biodegradable, plant-based surfactant that provides gentle cleansing while preserving the scalp's natural oils. Each herbal component was selected for its therapeutic properties, such as antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and hair-strengthening benefits. The formulation was meticulously developed to ensure optimal pH balance (4.5–5.5), maintaining scalp health and minimizing irritation. Comprehensive physicochemical evaluations were conducted, including pH determination, foaming ability, viscosity, wetting time, cleansing efficiency, conditioning properties, and microbiological stability. The shampoo exhibited good lathering capacity, effective dirt dispersion, and excellent conditioning effects without causing dryness or irritation. It successfully removed excess oil and impurities, leaving hair soft, manageable, and lustrous. This research demonstrates the potential of herbal formulations in modern hair care, offering an ecofriendly, non-toxic, and dermatologically safe alternative to synthetic shampoos. By merging ancient herbal knowledge with contemporary scientific validation, this study paves the way for sustainable, natural hair care solutions while addressing consumer demand for clean beauty products.
