Ratanjot Hue: A Potential Natural Hair Dye Containing Alkanna tinctoria

Abstract Herbal products are increasingly preferred over synthetic alternatives due to their safety and lack of harmful side effects caused by chemicals. Herbal hair dyes, particularly, have gained popularity because they effectively address the adverse effects associated with chemical-based dyes. The term "herbal" is often associated with safety and natural care. Hair discolouration occurs due to various factors such as genetics, environmental influences, and exposure to harsh substances like alcohol-based solutions. The natural hair shade is determined by the ratio of melanin pigments, including eumelanin and pheomelanin. This research focuses on the formulation of a herbal hair dye using extracts from natural ingredients, including Ratanjot, Henna, Mustard Oil, Tea Extract, Egg Yolk, and Lemon Juice. These ingredients provide vibrant colouring, deep conditioning, scalp nourishment, and exhibit antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Ratanjot (Alkanna tinctoria), a medicinal plant rich in alkannin, is the key ingredient responsible for the reddish-brown to deep burgundy colour. The prepared herbal hair dye was evaluated using various parameters, including organoleptic properties, physicochemical tests, dyeing effects, and patch testing to ensure safety and effectiveness.
