Definition:
Herbal shampoo is prepared from natural materials such as plant extracts, oils,
and herbs, rather than synthetic chemicals. Herbal shampoos are frequently
free of harsh chemicals and surfactants and can be used on all hair types,
particularly those with sensitive scalps.

Abstract:
The study aimed to formulate a pure herbal shampoo and to evaluate and
compare its physicochemical properties with the marketed synthetic and
herbal shampoos. The herbal shampoo was formulated by adding the extracts
of Sapindus mukorossi, Acacia concinna, Amblica offinalis, Hibiscus rosa-
sinesis, Aloe barbadensis, Citrus limon, Azardirachta indica. There are
numerous sorts of shampoos on the market today, including synthetic, herbal,
medicated, and non-medicated variants, but herbal shampoo is growing
increasingly popular among customers due to their belief that natural items

for washing and foaming. However, prolonged usage can cause eye discomfort,
scalp irritation, hair loss, and hair dryness.Natural herbal shampoos are a
viable alternative to synthetic shampoos. Shampoo is a detergent-based
solution with ingredients for hair conditioning, lubrication, and medication.
There are various synthetic, herbal, medicated, and non-medicated shampoos
on the market today, but the popularity of herbal shampoo among customers
is growing due to their perception that these products are safe and free of
adverse effects.

Aim: To prepare & evaluate herbal shampoo using Sapindus mukorossi, Acacia
concinna, Amblica offinalis, Hibiscus rosa-sinesis, Aloe barbadensis, Citrus
limon, Azardirachta indica.

Introduction
People have been using herbs for cleansing, beautifying, and hair management
since ancient times because hair is regarded as an essential component of hum
an beauty [1]. Keratin is the primary component found in hair. Keratin is a
remarkable protein which is resistant to wear and tear. Synthetic agents have
become increasingly prevalent in the formulation industries over the years, but
consumers are becoming more drawn to natural products these days because
they are less costly and have fewer negative effects. On the eyes, hair, and skin
brought on by synthetic goods [2]. Throughout history, hair on the head has
been linked to social status and attractiveness. Since the earliest ages, hair has
been cut, styled, and even colored; yet, not much emphasis has been put on
the cleaning process for it. Only this century has seen the development of true
hair and scalp washing technology. First, hygienic facilities and cake soap were
widely distributed to make personal hygiene and body cleansing practical. The
specialty of branded shampoo products for the hair and scalp, available in a
wide variety of sorts and shapes, followed [3].
Simple shampoo, anti-dandruff shampoo, anti-septic shampoo, and shampoos
with vitamins, amino acids, and protein hydrolyses—referred to as nutritional
shampoos—can all be used, depending on the kind and kind of components[4].
Shampoos are of numerous varieties, like powder shampoo, clear liquid
shampoo liquid shampoo, lotion shampoo, solid gel shampoo, medicated
shampoo, liquid herbal shampoo etc. Regarding herbal shampoos and stability
requirements Depending upon the nature of the contents they may be simple
or plain shampoo, antibacterial or antidandruff shampoo and nutritional
shampoo containing vitamin, amino acids proteins hydrolyses [5]. Herbal
shampoos are cosmetic preparations that, like conventional shampoos, are
designed to cleanse the hair and scalp by utilizing traditional Ayurveda herbs.

products over chemical ones since they have been shown to improve health.
Herbal cosmetics are becoming more and more popular, mostly because
people think they're safe and don't have any negative consequences [6]. The
middle ground between nature and culture is hair. Hair care attitudes
are different from one society to another regardless of economic differences,
and from one person to another within societies [7].
A preparation of a surfactant, i.e. surface active material in a suitable form -
liquid, solid, or powder, is how Harry defined shampoo. However, using surface
active material for extended periods of time might be quite detrimental. Time
for the children and our surrounding. The word herbal is a symbol of safety in
contrast to the synthetic one which
has adverse effects on human health. As a result, there is an increase the allure
of herbal cosmetics and the enormous assortment of herbal goods that are
already widely accessible to the public [8].
Due to their hectic schedules, people today often neglect to preserve their hair
from different issues. Individuals don't have time for various forms of
treatment to yield positive outcomes. Creating a technique for hair growth and
strengthening without harming or influencing hair was the aim of this study.
Herbal medications were used in the shampoo's formulation for this purpose.
Shampoo is a polyherbal mixture that includes extracts from Phyllanthus
emblica (phyllanthaceae), well known as Amla, and Sapindus trifoliatus
(sapindaceae), commonly known as Reetha, Aloe vera gel, Nardostachys
jatamansi (Valerianaceae) common name Jatamanasi, Eclipta alba (Asteraceae)
common name Bhringraj, and Azadirachta indica (Meliaceae) known name
Neem. These herbs were chosen using a combination of scientific rationale and
traditional methods with contemporary application [9]. In India, neem leaf
extract was initially used to treat skin conditions and fungus infections.
Additionally, it has been utilized for millennia for its anti-tumor, anti-
inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial properties [10].
One of the visible indicators of interior bodily disorders is hair. The most
popular hair treatment is shampooing. Shampoo's main purpose is to cleanse
the hair, which is necessary because of accumulated sebum, dust, and other
waste from the scalp. Various shampoo formulations are associated with hair

shampoos that could deplete the hair's natural oils. Because they
contain mild substances derived from plants, they are appropriate for all
hair types, but particularly for individuals with sensitive scalps.

harsh chemicals like phthalates, parabens, and sulfates that are harmful
to your hair. Because herbal shampoos don't include these harmful
components, they are safer and less likely to cause allergies or hair
damage.

been used for millennia to prevent hair loss. The herbal shampoo's
natural ingredients have antibacterial qualities that help maintain a
healthy scalp and protect against viral or inflammatory factors that can

dry scalp, but a greasy scalp may be the result of excessive oil
production. Herbal shampoo for dry hair that contains neem and tea
tree oil helps control sebum production, the natural oil the scalp
produces, to keep the scalp healthy.

boost by adding volume and gloss. One component that has been shown
to enhance hair texture and give it a fuller, glossier appearance is
rosemary.

induce side effects like pruritus, edema, vertigo, or respiratory
difficulties.

Shampoos are probably the most widely used cosmetic products for cleansing
hairs and scalp in our daily. A shampoo is basically a solution of a detergent

irritation to scalp and eyes.

Formulation Of Herbal Shampoo:

The composition of the soap is shown in Table 2, which was made by blending
the ratios of the plant extracts. Herbal extracts were mixed with a 10% gelatin
solution and shaken for 20 minutes. Additionally, methylparaben was added
while being stirred. The final volume was adjusted to 100 mL using gelatin
solution. Ultimately, the pH of the solution was altered by adding a sufficient
1% citric acid solution. The final volume was adjusted to 100 mL using gelatin
solution[14].

Evolution Parameters:
1.Physical appearance:
The physical appearance of a shampoo should be enticing. Its color, odor, and
transparency can all be assessed.
2.PH study:

21
A shampoo's performance, stability, and suitability for the hair and scalp are all
impacted by its pH. A shampoo's ideal pH range is normally between 4.5 and
6.5.
3.Viscosity determination:
One rheological factor that influences a shampoo's thickness and flow
characteristics is viscosity. It also impacts how well the shampoo cleans and
how the user feels about it.
4.Determination of foam formation:
The initial amount of foam produced by the herbal shampoo formulation was
measured by pouring 20 mL of shampoo into a dry, clean measuring cylinder.
The following computations were performed to ascertain the foam formulation
after the measurement cylinder was shaken ten times to record the final
volume[15].
5.Dirt dispersion test:
To make a volume of 10 mL, add two shampoo droplets to a test tube. After
that, ten shakes, one drop of India ink, and water are added to the test tube. A
precise measurement of the ink content in the foam was made[16].
6.Determination of surface tension:
The amount of surfactant in a shampoo is indicated by the surface tension
measurement. In order to lower the surface tension of water, surfactants are
necessary. The shampoo's capacity to clean is enhanced by a decreased
surface tension.

7.Wetting time test:

The concentration of a surfactant determines how well it wets. A quick and
accurate test to determine a shampoo's wetting ability is the canvas disc
method. A longer wetting time means there are less detergents in the
shampoo.
8.Percentage solid content:
The solid content of a high-quality shampoo should range from 20% to 30%.
Shampoo with a higher solid content is more difficult to remove.

22
Standard preparation:
Take a bowl and add Shikakai, Soap nuts, Dried Amala. Soak in in 1.2 liters of
water all over the night. In the morning, it becomes a black colour liquid. Put
that liquid in a pressure cooker and let it go for three to four whistles. Take out
the soap nuts' seeds. We have now prepared the aloe vera gel and leaf
extraction. Put 250 milliliters of water in a pan and bring it to a boil. Add the
aloe vera gel, tulsi, neem, and hibiscus leaves. Add this extraction to the
Shikakai mixture after it has thoroughly boiled. Mix this mixture thoroughly.
Use a fine filter to strain the shampoo. Store it in a glass bottle after allowing it
to cool.

Type of Shampoo:
1. Deep cleansing shampoos:
These shampoos include more detergent and produce a lot of foam;
they are also referred to as thickening, oil control, balancing, volumizing,
and clarifying.

23
 2. Anti-dandruff shampoos:
Medicated to reduce dandruff.
3. Baby shampoos:
These shampoos, also referred to as tear-free, have less detergent and
create less foam.
4. Moisturizing shampoos:
Excellent for giving hair—especially thick, curly, or coarse hair—more
hydration, luster, and smoothness.
5. Conditioning shampoos:
These shampoos, which are also referred to as moisturizing, 2-in-1,
smoothing, anti-frizz, color care, and hydrating, use silicone or
polyquaternium-10 to promote smooth hair.
6. Antibreakage shampoos:
Excellent for hair that is brittle, fragile, highlighted, damaged, or
overprocessed.
7. Thickening shampoos:
By removing perspiration, debris, and other contaminants that might
harm hair follicles, these shampoos can make your hair appear healthier.
They are most effective on thinning, fine, and thin hair.

Future Scope:
In 2023, the Indian herbal shampoo market was projected to be worth USD
578.33 million. The size of the Indian herbal shampoo market is anticipated to
increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.07% from 2024 to
2030, reaching a value of USD 789.21 million.

India Herbal Shampoo Market – By Type:

The growing emphasis and spending on personal grooming and hygiene by
consumers, the growth of e-commerce, the increase in disposable incomes,
and improved accessibility, especially in tier 2 and tier 3 cities, are the main

26
factors propelling the Indian herbal shampoo market. Growing knowledge of
the negative effects of chemicals in conventional products is causing a change
in the market from synthetic to herbal shampoos. The need for herbal
shampoos, which are renowned for their low side effects and affordability, is
increased by India's tropical environment, pollution, and stressed lives, all of
which contribute to the country's widespread hair-related problems. In order
to maintain market leadership and client loyalty in this changing environment,
major industry players are aggressively developing new products[17].

Estimation:
Consumers favor herbal items due to the significance of Ayurveda and
traditional herbal medicines in Indian culture. Moreover, there is a growing
trend toward shampoos that address specific hair concerns, such as color-
treated hair, frizz control, and thinning hair. Herbal shampoos targeting these
niche needs are becoming more prevalent. Although affordability is significant,
a portion of consumers is prepared to pay a premium for superior, luxury
herbal shampoos. These products often come with added benefits like exotic
ingredients or specialized hair treatments. Manufacturers also respond to this
trend by launching premium products. For instance, in May 2023, CavinKare
introduced a 'Nyle Natural and Pure’ range of no-sulphate hair care products
under its Nyle brand. The new line included formulas that combined elements
to give customers a better value, efficacy, and enjoyment. Shampoos,
conditioners, and other items were part of the newly introduced line, which
the business positioned as a high-end hair care brand. Furthermore, more
herbal shampoos are being sold through e-commerce platforms as a result of
consumers' increasing use of online purchasing. As a result, it anticipates rising

27
to prominence in the market throughout the course of the forecast period.
For example, in January 2022, WOW Skin Science, a well-known personal care
brand, encouraged consumers to switch to natural goods through its most
recent campaign, #AbNatureKiSuno, which featured Disha Patani. The goal of
the campaign is to inform and persuade people to switch from harsh chemical-
based goods to herbal ones.

Market Trends:

● The expansion of the Indian personal care sector is being complemented

by people's growing awareness of hygiene and beauty. Another
important reason for the rising demand for personal care items like
herbal shampoo is the prevalence of e-commerce. According to a poll
conducted by top Indian e-commerce business Nykaa, over 27 million
orders for cosmetics and personal hygiene items were placed on its
website in 2022. Almost 10 times as many orders were placed as the
year before.
● Hair health can be harmed by exposure to specific chemical compounds,
such as surfactants, preservatives, and antibacterial agents, which are
typically included in synthetic shampoos. Customers are switching to
herbal formulations as a safer substitute as a result. Accordingly,
companies are always working to raise customer knowledge of the
advantages of herbal extracts in shampoos through commercials,
promotions, and product demos[18].

Applications:

● Shampoo was created to remove excess sebum from the scalp and hair,
replacing soap.
● Shampoo was created to eliminate dandruff and replace soap in the
cleaning of the scalp and hair.
● Shampoo was created to balance hair oil and substitute soap for
cleaning the scalp and hair.
● Shampoo was created as an alternative to soap to clean the scalp and
hair by eliminating dust from the environment and product residue.

28
 ● Shampoo was created contains various herbal medicament to cure
dandruff and other debris.
