Hair have been associated with beauty since time immemorial. A number of natural and synthetic hair cleansers are available in the market. The challenges associated with hair and scalp health are increasing day by day. Aside from the fast life, stress, dietary issues; the increasing temperature, dust, pollution, erratic climate changes, the sulphates and parabens included in synthetic hair cleansers and conditioners are majorly responsible for deterioration of hair strands and scalp. The aim of the current work was to combine trichologically beneficial herbal ingredients and prepare a formulation that would serve for conditioning and cleaning the hair and scalp effectively. Three herbal hair shampoo powder formulations containing the same ingredients in varying proportions were prepared and evaluated for their physicochemical and stability parameters. The formulation F1 showed better results when evaluated for the physicochemical and stability parameters as compared to formulations F2 and F3.
