Depending upon the nature of the ingredients they may be simple or plain shampoo, antiseptic or antidandruff shampoo and nutritional shampoo containing vitamin, aminoacids proteins hydrolysate. The preparations were formulated using bahera, amla, neem, tulsi, shikakai, henna &brahmi at different ratio . Ash value is calculated to determine the inorganic contents which are characteristic for an herb. Particle size Angle of repose Bulk density 25-20 micrometer 20.550 5/g/cc of powdered shampoo. Average % foaming capacity, total Ash , acid insoluble , Moisture Content , pH value 151.8, 4.45 % w/w, 2.35%, 2.00 % w/w , 6.5 was found respectively. Cleaning percentage, surface tension, detergency, viscosity, foaming ability and foaming solubility was found to be 24.21, 32.15dyne/cm, 64.23%, 94607.84 cps, 170 ml respectively.
