Abstract	Abstract: This study focuses on the formulation and evaluation of an anti- dandruff herbal hair serum incorporating nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) as the key active ingredient. Nutmeg has long been recognized in traditional medicine for its antifungal, antibacterial, and anti- inflammatory properties, making it a promising natural remedy for dandruff and scalp irritation. The formulation process involved combining nutmeg extract with a blend of natural excipients and mild essential oils to enhance the serum’s effectiveness and improve its sensory appeal. The results demonstrated that the nutmeg-based serum maintained a stable pH suitable for scalp application, exhibited good spread ability and consistency, and showed notable antifungal activity. The formulation was well-tolerated in preliminary skin irritation tests, suggesting it is safe for topical use. This study concludes that nutmeg can be effectively used in the formulation of a herbal anti-dandruff serum, offering a natural and gentle alternative to conventional chemical treatments.
