ABSTRACT:
Hair care is a vital aspect of personal hygiene and self-presentation, yet many individuals face issues such as dandruff, hair fall, and dryness due to stress, hormonal imbalances, poor nutrition, and the frequent use of chemical-based products. In response, this project presents the development of a multipurpose herbal hair mask formulated entirely from natural ingredients. The mask incorporates traditional Ayurvedic components including castor oil, coconut oil, bhringraj oil, and various herbal extracts such as neem, basil, and tea tree oil—each selected for their proven benefits in nourishing the scalp, strengthening hair, and treating dandruff. Designed for home preparation, the product is safe, affordable, and effective for a range of hair types, particularly damaged or thinning hair. This formulation provides a holistic, chemical-free solution that aligns with the rising global demand for natural and sustainable personal care products.
