Eco-Friendly Herbal Shampoo: Formulation, Benefits, Testing

Herbal shampoos have grown in popularity due to their natural components and supposed advantages for hair health. This study describes the formulation of a herbal shampoo using plant extracts recognized for their therapeutic properties, such as Aloe vera, Hibiscus, and Amla. The shampoo was prepared to offer cleansing, hydrating, and strengthening effects while reducing the use of harsh chemicals. The formulation process involved adjusting the proportions of surfactants, thickeners, and herbal extracts to obtain the required consistency and stability. The final product was assessed for its physicochemical characteristics, antimicrobial potential, and user acceptance through sensory testing. The findings showed that the herbal shampoo demonstrated desirable attributes, making it a suitable alternative to conventional synthetic shampoos
