In this study using a mouse model and human hair follicle cells, shikimic acid was found to promote hair growth and may serve as a new therapeutic agent for alopecia.

This study found that combining shikimic acid with Prunus mume fruit extract significantly reduces type I 5α-reductase levels in testosterone-stressed skin sebocytes, surpassing the effects of shikimic acid or standard acne treatments alone, and shows promise for stable, non-irritating acne remedies in cosmetic formulations.

Ursolic and shikimic acid together boost hair growth better than alone.

This study found that shikimic acid significantly promoted hair growth in a mouse model and enhanced hair shaft elongation in human hair organ culture, suggesting its potential as a treatment for alopecia.

This study found that water-soluble extracts of Illicium anisatum promoted hair follicle elongation in cultured mouse vibrissae, suggesting potential use in hair growth products.
