Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret Review — Honest Experience With All Key Products

In recent months, Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret has become one of the most talked-about natural hair care brands in India — not just because of its traditional, herbal formulations, but also due to its successful appearance on Shark Tank India, where the brand secured a deal from Anupam Mittal. Rooted in age-old grandmother-approved remedies and backed by modern entrepreneurship, this brand promises chemical-free solutions for hair fall, scalp health, and everyday beauty needs. Curious to know whether the hype is real, I decided to personally try some of their most popular products, including the hair mask, rosemary water ark, scalp massager, neem comb, and herbal sindoor. After weeks of consistent use, here’s my honest, detailed review sharing what actually worked for me and whether Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret* truly deserves a place in your self-care routine.

I got few products from the brand and here is my honest experience using them:

1. Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret Hair Mask — Deep Nourishment the Traditional Way

I began my Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret journey with their Hair Mask, which is one of the brand’s most talked-about products after their Shark Tank India appearance. The idea of a grandmother-inspired, herbal hair mask immediately appealed to me, especially because I prefer deep-conditioning treatments that focus on long-term hair health rather than instant cosmetic smoothness.

The packaging is simple and functional, giving very home-remedy meets modern brand vibes. Nothing flashy — but that actually adds to its authenticity. The fragrance is mildly herbal, reminding me of traditional hair packs made with natural ingredients like amla, hibiscus, and curry leaves.

How I Used the Hair Mask

To get the best results, I used Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret Hair Mask once a week, sometimes twice when my hair felt extra dry.

Here’s my routine:

• Washed my hair with a gentle shampoo
• Removed excess water
• Applied the hair mask from mid-lengths to ends
• Left it on for 10–15 minutes
• Rinsed thoroughly with plain water

The texture is creamy and spreads easily, so a small amount goes a long way, which makes it feel value-for-money.

Right after the first wash, my hair felt softer and more manageable. There was no heavy or greasy feel, and my hair dried with noticeably less frizz.

With regular use, I started seeing consistent improvements:

• Hair felt less dry and more nourished
• Frizz reduced, especially at the ends
• Hair looked healthier and smoother
• Detangling became much easier

Over time, the hair mask helped improve my overall hair texture. While it’s not a miracle treatment for instant hair growth, it clearly helped reduce breakage and improve softness, which is exactly what a good hair mask should do.

2. Rosemary Water Ark — Lightweight Hair Tonic

One of the most talked-about products in this lineup is the Rosemary Water Ark — essentially a herbal mist spray packed with rosemary, hibiscus, amla, and curry leaves designed to nourish the scalp, strengthen hair roots, and promote growth.

It comes in a simple spray bottle, lightweight and easy to use — no mess, no sticky residue. You spray it onto the scalp and massage gently. It absorbs quickly, so you can use it even before styling. 

How I Used It

• Applied it daily on damp or dry scalp
• Sprayed after my hair wash & left it to absorb
• Sometimes used it before bedtime for overnight nourishment

The rosemary mist gave my scalp a refreshing feeling almost instantly. Over the weeks, my hair appeared shinier and less frizzy, and it felt more nourished at the roots. I definitely noticed less dryness and a lighter touch to my hair — unlike heavier tonics that leave hair greasy.

3. Scalp Massager — Scalp Care Meets Relaxation

Next in my routine was the scalp massager — a tool designed to gently stimulate the scalp, improve blood flow, and help distribute oil deeper into the roots. Most of these massagers in this brand’s range come with gentle silicone nodes that feel absolutely heavenly when used after oil application. It comes with USB charges so no worries of battery replacement.

I incorporated the scalp massager into my hair oil routine. After applying oil, I massaged for about 7–10 minutes — a time that feels like pure relaxation and not a chore. This tool was definitely one of my favorites because:

• It helped the product penetrate better
• It reduced tension and headache after long workdays
• It made my hair routines feel spa-like at home

4. Neem Comb — The Gentle Detangler

I’ve always believed that the tools we use on hair matter just as much as the products. That’s where the Neem Comb comes in — a traditional wooden comb with supposed anti-fungal and anti-dandruff benefits thanks to neem wood. 

Using a wooden neem comb instead of regular plastic made my hair detangling feel gentler. I didn’t experience any pulling or static, and it helped spread natural oils down the strands — a small yet noticeable change. 

However, remember that wooden tools can require extra care — they can attract dust or mold if not cleaned properly.

5. Nidhi's Grandmaa Secrets 13 Herbs Hair Oil

Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret 13 Herbs Hair Oil is a natural hair oil that’s meant to nourish the scalp and control hair fall. The bottle felt humble yet classic — just like the homemade oils my grandmother used to make. The smell is unmistakably herbal (think curry leaves, hibiscus, and coconut), which I personally love because it feels real and earthy without any artificial fragrance lingering. I massaged this oil into my scalp 2–3 times a week — sometimes overnight, sometimes for 2–3 hours before washing. Warming it up slightly (not in the microwave — the brand actually recommends gentle warming using hot water) helped it spread much better. Honestly, I didn’t see a miraculous overnight regrowth, but there was a clear improvement in hair strength and reduced breakage, which for me was already a win.

6. Herbal Sindoor — Safe for Daily Wear

Many of us remember how chemical-heavy sindoor used to be — past products often caused irritation or itching. But with Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret Herbal Sindoor infused with curcumin (turmeric) and rosemary oil, the experience has been much gentler. 

This herbal sindoor comes with dual shade options — classic red and deep maroon — and a fine brush applicator that makes precision easy. The fact that it felt comfortable on my skin all day, with no itch or irritation, was a major talking point for me. It didn’t smudge easily, stayed put through a normal day, and gave a traditional look without harsh chemicals — making it a great choice for sensitive skin. 

Overall Thoughts

Overall, if you’re someone who prefers natural, tradition-inspired hair care without sulfates, silicones, or synthetic fragrances, Nidhi’s Grandmaa Secret range feels like a trustworthy and affordable choice. Even though results vary from person to person, many users — including myself — noticed fewer hair strands lost, improved scalp comfort, and overall healthier texture over time.
