TEST REPORT
F
or ages hair has been a source of both pride and
despair for mankind. And, in a tropical country
like India, hair oil has been a product of regular,
if not daily, use for health, hygiene and beauty care. We
have a big market, a number of brands, a wide range of
manufacturers’ claims — factual or otherwise. The
choice of the right brand makes the consumers rack
their brains. If you too are among them, we’ve tried to
make your task easier.
This Test Report speaks about the myths and facts
behind hair oils and hair creams, tested by our in-house
laboratory to ascertain whether they deliver what they
claim to.
Brands Tested
We tested 13 brands of hair oil and three brands of hair
cream. The hair oils were Clinic Plus Coconut
Hair Oil, New Nihar Coconut Amla 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. The three brands of hair creams tested comprised
Brylcreem Dandruff Control Hair Cream, Brylcreem
Protein Plus Styling Hair Cream and Clinic Active Hair
Grooming Cream.
Indian Standards
Under Schedule S (Rule 150-A) of the Drugs and
Cosmetics Rules, 1945, hair oils and hair creams must
conform to the specifications laid down by the Bureau of
Indian Standards (BIS). The hair oils were tested as per IS
7123:1993 (IInd revision) specifications for their
properties as hair oil. The hair creams were tested as per IS:
7679: 1978.
Types of Oil
As per the BIS, hair oils shall be any one of three types:
Type 1 : Based on vegetable oil or oils
Type 2 : Based on mineral oil, and
Type 3 : Based on a mixture of vegetable oils
(raw and/or refined) and mineral oil.
All hair oil manufacturers are required
to mark on their label the source of
manufacture and the type of oil their
product belongs to. New Nihar
Coconut Oil, Swastik Perfumed
Castor Hair Oil, Jabakusum Taila and
Parachute Coconut Oil omitted the
type of oil on their labels. Dabur Amla
omitted the source of manufacture.
What We Tested For
We tested the hair oils for their
peroxide value, acid value, microbial
content, packing and marking and
labelling information.
The Parameters
Acid value : It indirectly gives an idea
of the shelf life; the higher the acidity,
the faster would be the onset of
rancidity in the oil.
A high acid value may cause much
irritation to the skin.
Peroxide value : It indicates the
stability of the oil. With the passage of
time, due to the oxidation of oil, the
peroxide value rises and ultimately the
product gets rancid.
Microbial tests : These are meant for
the safety of the product. The tests
determine the bacterial contamination
in oil. Microbes are part of the normal
skin flora, and therefore, found on the
skin and the surface. Usually a high
micro-count, especially the presence of
pathogenic or spoilage organisms,
may cause skin reactions.
Hair creams : These were tested for
thermal stability, pH, total fatty
substance, water content, rancidity and
microbial content.

Hair Oils
* We tested 13 brands of hair oil.
* The tests were carried out as per IS:
7123: 1993 specifications for hair oil, the
Weights and Measures (Packaged
Commodities) Rules,1977 and the Drugs
and Cosmetics Act of 1940.
* The peroxide value is prescribed to check
the rancidity of hair oil. The higher the
oxidation, the greater the chances of
emission of an unpleasant rancid odour.
Jabakusum Taila (11.50) and Swastik
Perfumed Castor Hair Oil (17.12) did
not comply with the IS specification for
the peroxide value limit of 0-10
milliequivalents (meq) per 1000 gram.
* The Standards of Weights and Measures
(Packaged Commodities) Rules 1977
specify the maximum permissible error
on declared net quantity (volume) by 6.75
ml for 150 ml. Dabur Vatika Premium
Coconut Hair Oil recorded an average
weight of 141.7 ml. This was less than the
permissible error.
* Unjust Enrichment : While Shanti Amla
gave more than the labelled weight and
New Nihar Coconut gave the labelled
weight, all the other 11 brands gave less
than their labelled weight. Jabakusum
Taila and Swastik Castor — two of the
three non-conforming brands — gave
Key Findings
you the least when price and quantity
were considered.
* The IS specifications for microbial
parameter permits not more than 1000
micro-organisms (bacterial growth) per
gram of oil. The microbial limit is
established for safety of the product.
Parachute Coconut Oil (2300) did not
conform to the IS requirements.
* Two brands of hair oils, namely,
Parachute Coconut Oil and
Jabakusum Taila, were found to be
having suspended particles.
* The colour of the oil varied in different
batches of Banphool Oil.
* Our panellists also tested the hair oil
brands for performance, fragrance and
appearance and easiness of spreading in
the sensory tests. On a 5-point scale
attributed to overall liking, Dey’s Keo
Karpin Hair Oil scored the highest at
83, while Swastik Perfumed Castor
Hair Oil (48) scored the least.
* Clinic Plus Coconut Hair Oil and New
Nihar Coconut Amla Hair Oil achieved
the highest overall score with 91, followed
by Marico’s Hair & Care and Parachute
Jasmine (90) each in the second position
and Bajaj Almond Drops (87) in the third
position.
* We recommend Shanti Amla Hair Oil as
our ‘Best Buy’, based on its reasonable
price and a good overall score.
Hair Creams
* We tested 3 brands of hair creams -
Brylcreem Protein Plus, Brylcreem
Dandruff Control and Clinic Active.
* The tests were carried out as per IS:
7679: 1978 specifications for hair
creams, the Weights and Measures
(Packaged Commodities) Rules,1977
and the Drugs and Cosmetics Act of
1940.
* All the brands met with all the
requirements as per the standards.
* Brylcreem Dandruff Control tops the
chart with an overall score of 72, followed
by Brylcreem Protein Plus (70) and
Clinic Active (61).
* Our panellists also tested the hair creams
for performance, fragrance and
stickiness in the sensory tests. On a 5-
point scale for overall liking, Clinic
Active scored the highest at (76)
followed by Brylcreem Dandruff
Control (71) and Brylcreem Protein
Plus (64).
* With a good overall score and a
reasonable price Brylcreem Dandruff
Control Hair Cream is our ‘Best Buy’.

Does Oil Help?
Opinions are divided on this front. It almost borders on a
gen war — the modern vs the ancient! The new generation
vouch that hair oil is no good. It eats up all the image with
the plastered look. Mind you, they however endorse the
gel look! Ask any veteran and pat comes the reply —
Definitely yes!
According to some hair care specialists, an oil massage helps
in a good blood circulation near the scalp which in turn
contributes to a good growth of hair. Hair stylists too encourage
clients to pamper hair with regular oil massages.
The internationally acclaimed herbalist and beauty therapist, Shahnaz Hussain, in
indoindians.com says the application of oil, with a light massage, helps to stimulate
blood circulation to the follicles and improves the texture and look of the hair. It can
also help to loosen dandruff flakes and facilitate their removal.
Oils have their own particular properties and benefits. Olive oil helps to restore the
natural acid mantle of the scalp and keeps it healthy. Castor oil restores the health of
hair that has suffered damage through the use of chemical dyes or overuse of hair
dryers. Coconut oil not only improves the texture of hair, but is said to help hair
growth.
