Formulation And Evaluation Of Alkanna Tinctoria Extract Based Poly Herbal Hair Dye Shampoo

Abstract

When it comes to highlighting a person's beauty and personality, hair is essential. Due to a variety of genetic and environmental variables, everyone experiences the natural process of greying their hair after a certain age. Due to their superior activity and fewer adverse effects compared to synthetic medications, people use herbal formulations. The current study has a strong emphasis on creating and assessing herbal hair dye shampoo formulations. A shampoo base to encourage hair cleaning and a variety of natural extracts for the colouring effect are used to make the herbal hair dye shampoo. Alkanna tinctoria, hibiscus, coffee powder, lemon juice, rose oil, Reetha extract (foam), shikakai extract, fenugreek extract, hibiscus extract, henna powder, and distilled water are all included in the created composition. Numerous commercially available hair products, including shampoos and hair colours, contain dangerous compounds that are harmful to human skin and hair. Additionally, processed goods rather than natural materials are used in the preparations. Thus, it is necessary to create ready-to-use, side-effect-free formulations with raw medications that have not been processed and just trace amounts of synthetic substances. When used over time, the prepared herbal hair dye shampoo exhibits permanent colouring and functions well as a shampoo without generating any negative skin reactions. It is stable, efficient, and user-friendly.
