Description
This book investigates the relationship between phytoconstituents
and properties in specific plants, such as Hibiscus rosa sinesis, Cuscuta
reflexa, Citrullus colocynthis, Nardostachys jatamansi and Ocimum
gratissimum, that are used in hair care products including shampoos,
conditioners, dyes, and oils. It explains the impact of these materials on the
growth, structure, appearance, and health of hair. It also explores how the
chemistry of certain plants from sustainable sources is exploited for use in
hair products and nutraceuticals. Additionally, the authors include information
on ingredients used for formulating 'green' hair products that treat common
conditions such as canities, dandruff and alopecia.
