The research aimed to explore potential natural treatments for hair growth by utilizing traditional Thai herbal medicine. Although the document does not provide specific details on the number of hair follicles or the exact herbs used, the study suggested that certain Thai herbal extracts could promote hair growth in a controlled laboratory setting.
