Hair Oil & Cream 



Insight— The Consumer Magazine’s has published its in-house laboratory test findings on 13 brands of hair oil and three brands of hair cream. Three widely sold brands of hair oil did not conform to the specifications of Indian Standards, while all the three brands of hair cream tested complied with all the statutory requirements.



Under Schedule S (Rule 150-A) of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945, hair oils and hair creams must conform to specifications laid down by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The hair oils were tested as per IS 7123: 1993 (IInd revision) and the hair creams as per IS: 7679: 1978.



Brands Tested : The 13 hair oil brands tested were : Clinic Plus Coconut Hair Oil, New Nihar Amla Coconut Oil, Hair & Care, Parachute Jasmine, Bajaj Almond Drops, Shanti Amla, Dey’s Keo Karpin Hair Oil, Dabur Amla Hair Oil, New Nihar Coconut Oil, Cantharidine Hair Oil, Jabakusum Taila, Swastik Perfumed Castor Hair Oil, and Parachute Coconut.



Among all of them, Clinic Plus Coconut Hair Oil and New Nihar Coconut Amla each scored the highest at 91. The next came Parachute Jasmine and Marico’s Hair & Care, each having scored 90.



Our recommendation for the ‘Best Buy’ among the 10 conforming brands of hair oil is, however, Shanti Amla Hair Oil, since its price was less than most brands and its overall performance was good. This brand’s overall score was 86.




INSIGHT has also published the laboratory test findings on three brands of hair cream, namely, Brylcreem Dandruff Control Hair Cream, Brylcreem Protein Plus Styling Hair Cream and Clinic Active Hair Grooming Cream.



Among the three, Brylcreem Dandruff Control Hair Cream scored the highest at 72, Brylcreem Protein Plus came next with 70 and Clinic Active scored 61. Brylcreem Dandruff Control hair cream is our recommendation for the ‘Best Buy’ among the three hair creams tested.



Ayurvedic Hair Oil & De-tanglers : The laboratory also tested four brands of hair oil which made therapeutic claims. The brands tested were Dabur Vatika Premium Coconut Oil, Himani Navratna Oil, Himtaj Oil and Banphool Oil. But since Indian Standards do not cover hair oils which make therapeutic claims, INSIGHT published only the test findings but did not rate or rank them nor did it call them conforming or non-conforming.
