Abstract


Concern over hair loss is frequent among individuals of different ages and genders. While various treatments are available for hair loss, therapeutic plants have gained attention in recent years. Green therapy, is successful in boosting hair development and reducing hair loss, as is the usage of therapeutic plants for hair loss treatment. This review explores the causes of hair loss and the different therapeutic plants that are beneficial for hair loss treatment, such as Aloe vera, rosemary, ginseng and saw palmetto, among others. These plants contain natural compounds that can stimulate hair growth, improve scalp health, and reduce inflammation. The use of green therapy for hair loss treatment offers a natural and safe alternative to conventional treatments, and it is becoming increasingly popular among individuals who seek to improve their hair health without harsh chemicals. Furthermore, this review highlights the importance of further research on therapeutic plants for hair loss treatment and encourages the use of natural remedies for hair health.
