ABSTRACT

The present study demonstrates the formulation, evaluation and quantitative estimation of nano-herbal hair dye cream. Nano herbal hair dye cream was formulated using various natural constituents like Henna, Walnut, Chamomile, Rosemary, Cinnamon and Fenugreek. Three batches of the hair dye cream were formulated and evaluated for their organoleptic, physico-chemical, rheological properties along with skin irritation testing and stability testing. Colour dyeing activity was carried out on white human hair. The effective contact time for hair colouring was found be 60 min as compared to 90 min of henna and walnut powder cream/paste. Quantitative estimation of constituents e.g. Lawsone and Apigenin was performed by TLC and HPTLC techniques. Content of Lawsone and Apigenin in nano herbal hair dye cream was found to be 12.6 mg and 19.68 mg per 30 g of nano herbal hair dye cream respectively. Keywords: Nano herbal hair dye cream, Henna, Lawsone, Apigenin
