      community Weed/THC effects on hair growth/hair loss, and vitality of organ-culture human follicle studies (research review)

       4 upvotes 1 year ago
      Cannabis and THC may have mixed effects on hair, with some studies suggesting potential negative impacts on hair growth in isolated hair follicles, but these results are hard to apply to living humans. Treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used for hair loss, and the effects of cannabis might be neutral or vary based on individual factors.

      Minoxidil can effectively promote hair regrowth with consistent use, but results differ among individuals. Some recommend combining it with finasteride for better long-term results, though OP chooses to use only minoxidil and accepts the possibility of going bald.

      • Can a liquid formula with Procapil do more than your usual multivitamin? Procapil is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss drug: the published studies on it are small and test it in combination with caffeine or platelet-rich plasma, so none isolates its own effect, and the percentages quoted in marketing come from the ingredient supplier's unpublished studies. Vitamins are reported to help hair only where there is a deficiency, so the two are aimed at different problems rather than ranked against each other.
