The aim of this study was to formulate and evaluate a completely herbal shampoo which is at par with the other natural shampoo available in the market. We formulated an herbal shampoo by using plant extracts which are commonly used traditionally and lauded for their hair cleansing actions across Asia. All the ingredients used to formulate shampoo are safer than silicone sand polyquaterniums synthetic conditioning agents can greatly reduce the hair or protein loss during combing. Instead of using cationic conditioners we have used Sheekakai, Amla, Neem, Aloe vera and other plant extracts to provide the conditioning effects several tests were performed to evaluate and compare the physicochemical properties of both prepared and marketed shampoos. Our prepared shampoo showed comparable result with that of marketed shampoo for quality control tests but further research and development is required to improve its overall quality.
