    TLDR A hair tonic with equal parts avocado extract and honey is effective and preferred for preventing hair loss.
    The study investigated the use of avocado extract and honey as active ingredients in hair tonic for hair loss. Avocado contains oleic acid, which helps prevent hair loss and promotes growth, while honey contains pinocembrin, which strengthens hair. The research aimed to determine the optimal proportion of these ingredients, assess user preferences, and ensure compliance with SNI standards. Three formulations were tested (1 ml: 5 ml, 3 ml: 3 ml, 5 ml: 1 ml) on 30 panelists. The 3 ml: 3 ml mixture (H2) met SNI criteria, was preferred by panelists for its clear, greenish-yellow appearance, menthol and avocado-honey aroma, and slightly oily feel. H2 had a pH of 6.8, low microbial count, and was free from harmful bacteria, indicating its potential effectiveness in preventing hair loss.
