TLDR The 3:2 combination of pandanus and sansevieria leaf extracts promotes the best hair growth.
The study aimed to evaluate the hair growth activity of a combination of ethanol extracts from pandanus leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb.) and sansevieria leaves (Sansevieria trifasciata Prain.). The extracts were combined in ratios of 1:1, 2:3, and 3:2, with the 3:2 combination showing the best hair growth activity. This combination was compared to normal control, 96% ethanol, and minoxidil, demonstrating superior hair growth activity over the individual extracts. The findings suggested that the combination extract could be more effective for promoting hair growth.
