In this study, researchers found that a mixture of Saccharina japonica and Undaria pinnatifida (L-U mixture) promoted hair growth in mice comparably to 3% minoxidil. The L-U mixture stimulated hair growth-promoting genes and suppressed hair loss-related genes, suggesting its potential for hair loss treatments.

Marine-derived ingredients show potential for hair health but need more human trials to confirm effectiveness.

This review highlights the bioactive compounds in the brown seaweeds Undaria pinnatifida (wakame) and Saccharina japonica (kombu), detailing their various health benefits based on clinical studies, notably from Japan and elsewhere.

This study found that minoxidil nanoparticles increased drug delivery to hair follicles and improved hair growth more effectively in mice than conventional minoxidil formulations.

This study found that Undariopsis peterseniana extract may promote hair growth by activating specific cellular pathways, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.
