How effective is Patanjali Natural Shampoo, and which hair types is it best for?

Question

I’ve been considering switching to Patanjali Natural Shampoo as a more herbal alternative for my hair care routine. I want to understand its benefits, how effective it is, and whether it’s suitable for all hair types.

One of the claims about this shampoo is that it’s free from harmful chemicals and enriched with natural ingredients like aloe vera, reetha, and shikakai. How effective are these ingredients for reducing hair fall, cleansing the scalp, and improving hair texture?

I’m also curious about its suitability for different hair types. Is Patanjali Natural Shampoo gentle enough for dry and sensitive scalps, or does it work better for oily hair? Are there specific variants for issues like dandruff, thinning hair, or frizz?

Another question is about the results. How long does it take to notice improvements in hair quality, and does it work better when paired with Patanjali hair oils or conditioners?

Lastly, are there any precautions or potential side effects? For example, could frequent use cause scalp dryness or buildup? If anyone has used Patanjali Natural Shampoo, I’d love to hear your experience.
