ABSTRACT

Hair fall is a common problem that affects both men and women and is influenced by genetic, hormonal nutritional, and environmental factors. Although synthetic anti-hair fall formulations can be effective, they often cause adverse effects such as scalp dryness and irritation. Consequently, research has increasingly focused on herbal alternatives that offer improved safety and tolerability. This review focuses on the formulation and evaluation of a herbal anti-hair fall gel using natural ingredients such as flaxseed, chia seeds, aloe vera, fenugreek, curry leaves, and neem. The study highlights their synergistic effects in promoting hair growth, reducing hair fall, and improving scalp health. Herbal hair gels are chemical-free products that promote hair health. It aims to nourish the scalp, moisturize hair, reduce hair fall, promote growth, and address scalp issues like dandruff.

The main objective of present work is to formulate and evaluate herbal hair gel containing flax seed and curry leave extract.
