Sinturis (Citrus nobilis) Blend with Aloe Vera: An Effective Home Remedy to Augment Hair Growth

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Hair loss, including the deterioration of one's hair health, is one of the most common health issues today. Over time, hair loss had become one of the major issues of both men and women -affecting everyone at any age the same way. Alopecia is a condition that cannot be fully cured as of this time. But it can be delayed by boosting the hair growth. Existing solutions are being used to boost hair growth but most of these are synthetically made or costly. Hence, the researchers have studied a new natural alternative solution to boost hair growth while being economically friendly, accessible, and efficient.

METHODS

An experimental research design was used in this study. Using four experimental procedures, the researchers determined the effectiveness of the varying degrees of concentration of Sinturis (Citrus nobilis) extract blend with Aloe Vera gel (Solution A = 75% Sinturis juice and 25% Aloe Vera gel in 10 mL, Solution B = 50% Sinturis juice and 50% Aloe Vera gel in 10 mL, and Solution C = 25% Sinturis juice and 75% Aloe Vera gel in 10 mL) in the augmentation of hair growth. One-way AN VA, Bonferroni Test, and Mean plot diagram was used in the statistical treatment and analysis of data.

RESULTS

The findings revealed that the group treated with solution B having 50% Sinturis (Citrus nobilis) juice and 50% Aloe Vera gel extract, showed the most significant result in terms of hair length. The results showed that the most ideal solution to augment hair growth is solution B. Solution B had the highest mean of hair growth in terms of hair length with 2.30 cm. It is followed by a solution which has a mean of 1.65 cm and then followed by solution C with a mean of 1.00 cm. The control group showed the least mean of hair growth with 0.45 cm.

DISCUSSIONS

The results demonstrate that Sinturis (Citrus nobilis) juice blend with Aloe vera gel extracts significantly augment and boost the hair growth of the treated samples within the 4 weeks of experimentation. Among the tested varying degree of concentration, Solution B consisting of 50% Sinturis juice and 50% Aloe vera gel extract is the most ideal solution. The neutrality of the solution is the most effective in augmenting hairgrowth in terms of hair length. Thus, garnering a natural alternative on boosting and augmenting hair growth which is proven to be efficient and economically friendly is then obtained.
