Material & Methods: In this research, a focused group discussion was studied for data collection regarding their haircare routine and on-the-market natural hair products. Physical and chemical properties such as solidity of the products were systematically evaluated before developing a tailormade haircare product. A hair analysis was also introduced before and after use. The performance of the product and the group’s satisfactory were collected after.
Results: It was found that the sample group looked for products designed to provide soft, smooth and tangle-free hair, easy to rinse with a creamy texture and orange scent. A squeeze tube packaging in different sizes was recommended. The physical and chemical test results indicated smooth and fine texture in light yellow color and light orange scent. The product has good fluidity, no microbial or fungal growth, no creaming and cracking effect, pH 5-6, is well-absorbed and non-greasy. The hair condition showed strong, non-friction hair (87.05%), smooth and flexible hair (92.25%). Hair was untangled throughout, reflecting healthy hair (89.15%). The hair maintained high suppleness and strength against pulling (90.04%) and the product satisfaction assessment was found at a high level ( x̅ = 4.40).
Conclusion: From the haircare product performance test, the hair conditioner products from shogun orange peel extract enhance strong, soft, smooth and flexible hair. The results from product satisfaction assessment are at high level. This offers an alternative choice of natural haircare products for customers and an increase in value of agricultural materials for business.
