About Shikakai:

Shikakai, an ancient herbal plant renowned for its medicinal properties, has long been used in hair care. Indigenous to the lush tropical forests of India, Shikakai is a prickly shrub whose fruits serve as a natural hair cleanser. The dark brown pods of this plant shrink and contain six to ten seeds each when dried. Its leaves, bark, and fruits have historically been employed for medicinal purposes. After sun-drying, the pods, fruits, bark, and leaves are ground into a fine powder, which is then applied into a paste. This traditional shampoo is highly regarded for its cleansing abilities without compromising hair health due to its naturally low pH levels. Serving as both a detangler and cleanser, Shikakai eliminates the need for additional conditioning products. Furthermore, infusions made from the leaves have been incorporated into anti-dandruff formulations.
