The main aim of this study was using of Commiphora myrrh extract as a sterilizer against pathogenic microbes isolated from beauty salons. The efficiency of C. myrrh extract was tested against each type of bacteria and fungi that were obtained from the previous study and compared with the efficiency of the chemical reagent used in salons. There were no significant differences in the efficiency of similar efficiency C. myrrh and barbicide solution on the tested microorganisms. The result also revealed that C. myrrh extract had higher antibacterial activity against bacterial isolates than fungal isolates.

Piedra, is an asymptomatic fungal infection of the hair shaft, resulting in the formation of nodules of different hardness on the infected hair. The infection also known as Trichomycosis nodularis is a superficial fungal infection arising from the pathogen being restricted to the stratum corneum with little or no tissue reaction. The nodules are a concretion of hyphae and fruiting bodies of the fungus. Two varieties of Piedra may be seen, Black Piedra and White Piedra. The fungus Trichosporon ovoides is involved in the occurrence of both types of Piedras. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of selected essential oils for the control of growth of the fungus and to determine whether the antifungal effect was due to the major compounds of the oils. Two screening methods viz. Agar well diffusion assay and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration were adopted for the study. MIC and MFC were determined by tube dilution
