Hair development tonic from a mixture of ethanol extract of coffee waste and kepok banana skin waste

This research aimed to investigate the potential of ethanol extracts from coffee grounds and kepok banana peels in the manufacture of hair tonic as a hair grower. Hair tonic is a product used to stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss. In this study, ethanol extracts were made from coffee grounds and kepok banana peels, then tested on rabbits as an in vivo model. The experimental methods used included collection of coffee waste and kepok banana peel, extraction using ethanol solvent, and preparation of hair tonic formulation with combination of concentration of coffee waste extract: banana skin extract each 15:15, 20:15, 15:20. Qualitative and quantitative tests were conducted on the extracts to identify the active components contained therein. The resulting hair tonic was applied to a designated area on the skin of rabbits that had been organized into treatment and control groups. Observations were made periodically to monitor hair growth The results of this study are the condition (5) which consist of concetration comparasion 15:20 for each ethanol extract coffee waste and kapok banan skin waste is the longest hair growth. In addition, the thickest hair growth was on the condition (4) which consist of concetration comparasion 20:15 for each ethanol extract coffee waste and kapok banan skin waste is the longest hair growth
