Hair ageing is a common occurrence. There are many different kinds of hair colouring products available on the market composed of various chemical types that are either somewhat or significantly damaging to humans. This study proposed a temporary herbal hair dye spray that is easier to use than the conventional way of applying herbal hair color, offering a safe alternative to synthetic dyes that also offers additional advantages for long-term use for hair. The powdered forms of Lawsonia inermis, Indigofera tinctoria, Emblica officinalis, Camellia sinesis, Bacopa monnieri, Acacia catechu, and aloe vera were extracted and combined with rosemary oil and lavender oil. Extracts were tested for conformation of their chemical constituents. To make it darker and help the hairs retain their colour, propylene glycol in a low concentration and iron fillings were also added to it. The dye was made in a thick liquid form that was simpler to spray and was later tested for skin sensitivity and colouring effectiveness. The mixture gives hair a dark brownish to black colour and without having any negative effects on the skin or hair because all of the ingredients are natural. The mixture is also simpler to use than the traditional method of mixing and applying powdered henna to hair because it is made to be used directly on hair.
