Formulation and Evaluation of Natural Hair Colour
View through CrossRef
This study details the formulation and evaluation of
a herbal hair dye composed of natural ingredients:
beetroot, hibiscus, black catechu, alum powder,
banana pulp, and rosemary oil. Both powder-based
and paste-based dyes were developed. The
formulations underwent organoleptic,
physicochemical, and preliminary phytochemical
screening to assess their suitability as natural hair
dyes and their potential as safer alternatives to
synthetic colorants. The dye exhibited favorable
sensory characteristics, standard pH, moisture, and
ash content. Phytochemical screening indicated the
presence of carbohydrates, proteins, tannins,
anthraquinones, and mucilage, validating the use of
herbal constituents. This research suggests that this
herbal hair dye presents a potential alternative to
synthetic hair colorants, potentially minimizing
adverse side effects
