Common Ingredients

The exact formulation may vary slightly between different versions of the Kesh Kanti product (e.g., Natural, Milk Protein, Silk & Shine), but some of the most common herbal ingredients include:

• Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Rich in Vitamin C, it is known to strengthen hair roots and prevent premature graying.
• Bhringraj: Often called the “King of Herbs” for hair growth, it helps in reducing hair fall.
• Shikakai: A natural cleanser that gently removes impurities and adds shine to the hair.
• Reetha (Soapnut): A natural foaming agent that cleanses the hair and scalp.
• Neem: Possesses antibacterial and antifungal properties that help to keep the scalp free from dandruff and infections.

Product Variants

Patanjali offers a range of Kesh Kanti hair cleansers, each with a slightly different focus:

• Kesh Kanti Natural Hair Cleanser: The original and most widely known variant, focused on general hair health and addressing common issues.
• Kesh Kanti Milk Protein Hair Cleanser: Formulated with milk protein to nourish and moisturize dry, rough hair, and improve shine.
• Kesh Kanti Silk & Shine Hair Cleanser: Aims to provide soft, smooth, and shiny hair while also helping with detangling.

Usage

The typical application method involves wetting the hair, applying a small amount of the cleanser, massaging it gently into the scalp and hair to create a lather, and then rinsing thoroughly with water.

Note on Formulation

While Kesh Kanti is marketed as a herbal product, it’s important to note that many commercial shampoos, including Kesh Kanti, use a surfactant base (like Sodium Laureth Sulfate – SLES) to create lather and provide effective cleansing. This has led to some debate among consumers regarding its “all-natural” claim, with some appreciating the added herbs and others pointing out the presence of conventional shampoo ingredients.
