Abstract
Now days, there are many problems for humans. On top of that, hair fall is a major problem noticed by teenagers. One of the main reasons for hair fall is dandruff and body heat. So, dandruff is caused by the fungus Malassezia species, and for that problem, we have a simple solution to tackle it. Rice water is a simple and effective solution for this hair fall problem. The fungal sample was isolated and identified and prepare a shampoo using rice water as a major source. Total carbohydrate and protein was determined. The prepared antifungal shampoo was tested using the well-diffusion method against the fungus Malassezia sps, which causes dandruff. The prepared rice water shampoo gives a positive result and has a high zone of inhibition against the Malassezia species. The antifungal activity was performed on the Malassezia species and shows the best result.
