Summary

This pilot study tests whether a daily plant-based serum can safely improve hair growth in 40 men and women with mild to moderate thinning hair. Participants apply the serum to their scalp for 9 months, and researchers measure changes in hair density and thickness using special cameras. The goal is to see if the serum is effective and satisfying to use, while monitoring for any side effects.
