“…It was discovered that proanthocyanidins extracted from grape seeds promote proliferation of hair follicle cells in vitro and that they possess remarkable haircycle-converting activity from the telogen phase to the anagen phase in vivo (Takahashi et al, 1998). Studies suggested that Ginkgo biloba leaf extract also promotes hair regrowth, through combined effects on proliferation and apoptosis of the cells in the hair follicle, thus suggesting potential as a hair tonic (Kim et al, 1998b;Kobayashi et al, 1993). Other plants such as henna, aloe, rosemary and sage are claimed to have effects on hair growth, but still need more study and clinical trials to substantiate their folk medicine use.…”

This review describes the use of some natural products in cosmetic preparations, due to their low mammalian toxicity, with a brief description of the major use, plant parts used, the actives responsible for effect and the benefits of such products. Their use in skin care; such as dryness, eczema, acne, free-radical scavenging, antiinflammatory, antiaging and skin protection effects are explained, and also the use in hair care as hair growth stimulants, hair colorants, and for hair and scalp complaints such as dandruff. Essential oils when incorporated into finished products impart many benefits such as a pleasant aroma in perfumery, shine or conditioning effects in hair care products, emolliency and improving the elasticity of the skin.

“…Based on several studies, flavonoids contribute to the activity of hair growth by strengthening the walls of capillaries in the hair follicles, as well as improve blood circulation to nourish hair follicles that can increase hair growth. [7][8][9] Other studies also shown that flavonoids can shorten the telogen phase and can prolong the anagen phase. Based on research, minoxidil can prolong the anagen phase by extending the dermal papilla cell survival in the hair follicles by increasing proliferation and anti-apoptotic effects that can stimulate hair growth in the anagen phase.…”

“…6 Some studies reported that flavonoid demonstrated hair growth promoting activity. 7,8,9 To increase hair growth activity of leaves extracts from N. scutellarium, further fractionation process was needed using the suitable solvent to increase the level of flavonoids, which required in increasing hair growth. Ethyl acetate was chosen as a solvent for a fractionation process of N. scutellarium leaves.…”

Objective: The aims of this study were to know the safety using Hen's eggs-chorioallantoic membrane (HET-CAM) test method and hair growth promoting activity of the ethyl acetate fraction of Nothopanax scutellarium leaves. Methods: Safety test was measured by scoring and categorizing irritation onHET-CAM. Meanwhile, activity test was conducted by applying the hair tonic of the ethylacetate fraction on the back of the rabbits, and the length of hair was measured in the 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd week.In the 3 rd week, the hair growth was weighed and hair diameter also was measuredusing scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results:The result showed that 0.2 gram of ethyl acetate fraction of N.scutellarium leaves have mild irritation effect, whereas the formulation contained with 0.5% and 1% of fraction increased hair growth and hair diameter. Conclusion: The ethyl acetate fraction of N. scutellarium have mild irritan effect, and the hair tonic demonstrated hair growth promoting activity.
