Frequently Asked Questions
Do copper peptides work for hair growth?
Yes. Our GHK-Cu serum is enhanced with Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 to work through a number of pathways examined in clinical research on scalp health and hair density appearance.
Is copper peptide a DHT blocker?
No. We don’t include any DHT blockers (like Finasteride), either. These types of ingredients can have harmful hormonal effects, and we prefer to support scalp and hair health naturally. Our dual-peptide system may be all you need to unlock your healthiest, happiest hair yet!
Do I apply the serum to my hair or scalp?
Apply it to the scalp directly, not hair strands. The scalp is where hair growth actually takes place. Applying the copper peptide hair serum to strands will just leave you looking greasy without any meaningful impact on hair health. For best results, massage it into the scalp for 30-60 seconds. This may boost circulation and absorption. Focus on trouble areas.
Are copper peptides safe to apply on the scalp?
Yes. Our formulation is free of harsh chemicals, parabens, sulfates, or synthetic fillers. However, we recommend patch testing on a small area first - as with any new scalp product. You may want to consult with a dermatologist before use if you have specific scalp concerns, too.
What are the side effects of copper peptides?
Fortunately, there aren’t really any known side effects of copper peptides for hair. They’re generally considered safe for most people - just like our Matrixyl 3000 serum (copper peptides for skin).
How long does it take for copper peptides to work on hair?
You’ll likely notice a subtle difference in hair appearance and shine within 3-4 weeks of consistent daily use. More significant changes in hair density appearance typically become visible around 6-8 weeks. We encourage you to apply Hair Tonic daily for at least 8-12 weeks.
How often do I need to apply copper peptides for hair?
Once a day is fine. Copper peptide serum requires consistency, though. Do your best to avoid missing a day, or you’re going to delay progress.
Can all hair types benefit from a copper peptide hair serum?
Yes, it’s designed to work across various hair types and textures. The serum supports scalp health and follicle appearance. Customers with straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair have all reported positive results.
