Abstract	The study focuses on the development of a natural herbal shampoo as a safer alternative to synthetic shampoos, which often contain harsh surfactants leading to scalp irritation, dryness, and hair fall. The formulation primarily incorporates Shikakai (Acacia concinna) and Reetha (Sapindus mukorossi), both known for their natural cleansing and conditioning properties. The shampoo is designed to provide effective hair cleansing without synthetic additives like sulphates and parabens. Various quality control tests were conducted, including pH analysis, viscosity, foaming ability, surface tension, washability, and antimicrobial activity. The results confirmed that the herbal shampoo is non-irritant, maintains hair health, and offers an eco-friendly, chemical-free alternative. Stability tests further ensured that the formulation remains effective over time. This herbal shampoo formulation presents a sustainable solution for daily hair care, catering to consumer demands for natural, plant-based personal care products.
