ABSTRACT
HAIR COSMECEUTICALS Hair condition is affected by age, cosmetic grooming practices, and diseases such as androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis. Hair cosmeceuticals claim to improve the appearance of hair by promoting growth ( Table 7.1 ) and influencing hair color, volume, and conditioning. Hair cosmeceuticals can include both botanical and non-botanical products. Some botanicals and active ingredients may potentially affect the regulation of the hair cycle and hair growth. Other botanical products are also available to remove excess or unwanted hair.
