What are Keshohills tablet and Keshohills hair oil?
Keshohills tablet is an Ayurvedic polyherbal tablet containing botanicals traditionally used for hair and scalp health. Keshohills hair oil is an Ayurvedic medicated oil containing Henna, Brahmi, Aloe vera, Betel leaf, Methi and Kalonji, among other herbs. Used together, they offer an internal plus external approach to hair care.
Where does an Ayurvedic hair oil for hair fall fit in Ayurvedic hair care?
Ayurveda describes hair fall as Khalitya, influenced by Pitta imbalance, diet, stress, lifestyle and environmental factors. Classical management combines internal formulations with external medicated oils (shiro abhyanga), which is why Herbal Hills has developed and studied both a tablet and an oil.
How was the Keshohills tablet study designed?
It was an open-label, single-arm, prospective study in 35 adults aged 21 to 45 with active mild to moderate hair fall. Participants took Keshohills tablets for 60 days and were assessed at baseline and on Days 15, 30, 45 and 60 using the 60-Second Hair Comb Test and the Adherent Scalp Flaking Score (ASFS), along with scalp itching and safety checks.
What results did the tablet study report?
Mean hair fall scores fell from 2.67 to 1.00, a 62.5% improvement (p<0.0001). Scalp flaking scores fell from 5.51 to 0.18, a 96.8% improvement (p<0.0001), and scalp itching was fully resolved by Day 60, with most of the change seen by Day 45. No adverse events were reported.
What did the hair oil study find?
The Keshohills hair oil study enrolled 50 adults with mild to moderate hair fall and dandruff and used the same 60-Second Hair Comb Test and ASFS methods. Published in the Journal of Ayurveda and Integrated Medical Sciences in 2023, it concluded that the oil was effective in reducing hair loss and scalp flaking linked to seborrheic dermatitis.
What is the 60-Second Hair Comb Test?
It is a simple, standardised test in which hair is combed for 60 seconds and the shed hairs are counted and graded. It gives an objective, repeatable measure of hair fall that can be compared between visits, which makes it well suited to clinical studies and to follow-up in practice.
Why is Keshohills a strong category for stores and distributors?
Hair fall is one of the most searched personal care concerns in India, and an Ayurvedic range with published research for both an internal tablet and an external oil gives stores a credible, differentiated offer. Both products are supplied directly by the manufacturer in retail and value packs.
