research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Potential use of human hair shaft keratin peptide signatures to distinguish gender and ethnicity
This study suggests that keratin peptide signatures in human hair shafts could potentially be used to distinguish gender and ethnicity, though further research on a larger scale is needed.
research Molecular modeling of hair keratin/peptide complex: Using MM‐PBSA calculations to describe experimental binding results
This study's molecular dynamics simulations suggest that electrostatic interactions mainly stabilize peptide binding to human hair keratin, with the protein's dielectric constant significantly affecting free energy calculations.
research Hydrolyzed Keratin Peptide Enhances Hair Condition and Promotes Hair Regeneration
This study found that orally administered hydrolyzed keratin peptide promoted hair growth and enhanced cellular proliferation and antioxidant capacity in mice and human cell models, suggesting its potential as a functional food ingredient for hair health.
research Peer Review #2 of "Potential use of human hair shaft keratin peptide signatures to distinguish gender and ethnicity (v0.1)"
This study suggests that keratin peptide signatures from human hair shafts could potentially distinguish gender and ethnicity, though confirmation in larger studies is needed.

5 / 141 resultscommunity Additional supplements / peptides to maximize finasteride benefit
The user is using finasteride, HGH, GHK-CU, BPC-157, KPV, biotin/collagen/keratin vitamins, ketoconazole shampoo, and low-dose naltrexone to address hair loss, avoiding minoxidil due to past shedding experiences. Adenosine is discussed as a potential alternative to minoxidil, though it is noted to be expensive and hard to find.
community Thoughts on this topical? Has a combination going on but are they really heavy hitters
Follicium XR™ is a topical treatment for hair loss containing RU58841, AHK-Cu, GHK-Cu Peptide, caffeine, D-Biotin, methylene blue, keratin, and spermidine. RU58841 is considered the most effective ingredient, but concerns exist about its stability in water.
community 3 Months on Topical DUT & MIN Female Pattern Baldness
A user shared progress on treating female pattern baldness with a topical solution containing Minoxidil, Dutasteride, Tretinoin, Ketoconazole, and Hydrocortisone, along with supplements like Collagen Peptides, NAC, Vitamin C, and Keratin. Another user commented on the impressive results, noting the use of topical Dutasteride.
community IGF-1 and Peptides? Miracle molecule waiting to be found
The conversation discusses potential hair loss treatments focusing on stimulating IGF-1 at the follicle level using growth-factor cocktails and engineered peptides, such as Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Copper Tripeptide-1, Oligopeptide-20, Thymosin-β4, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. It suggests that device-assisted delivery methods like microneedling may enhance effectiveness.
community Has anyone heard of “Hair bloom” hair filler?
The conversation discusses "Hair bloom" hair filler, which contains biotin, collagen, and various peptides, as a potential alternative to PRP or mesotherapy for hair loss. Opinions vary, with some suggesting it may be a cash grab or ineffective, while others believe it could complement topical minoxidil for early hair loss.
