Introduction

The hair on our bodies has a particular structure and is divided into thin and thick hair. Thin hair, also called lanugo, is located on all skin surfaces except for the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. Thick hair, also called terminal hair, is dark and located only in some areas such as the scalp, the armpits, the pubic area, and the beard area in the case of men. Hair is located in the hair follicle, a particular skin structure with a sac-like form, tilted by approximately 75° concerning the skin's surface. The lower part of the hair follicle is located in the deeper part of the dermis but its depth level varies from hair to hair (in the case of hair on the head, the average depth is around 0.6 -1 cm). Hair oil is oil applied to the hair as a cosmetic, conditioner, styling aid, restorative, or tonic. Hair oils have been used for many different purposes such as hair growth, health, dryness, scalp, or fixing damaged hair. Various forms of hair oils can be applied such as natural hair oils which include traditional hair oils like coconut, castor, or almond oil Humans produce natural hair oil called sebum from glands around each follicle. Other mammals produce similar oils such as lanolin. When hair oils are first applied onto the scalp, the effect of the oil on the lipid

barriers varies depending on the type of oil. Hair oils have huge benefits due to the effect that it has on the scalp. When oil is first applied, the oil forms a protective hydrophobic film that decreases trans-epidermal water loss as it reduces evaporation from water from the skin. The reduction of water loss is important to the scalp because it helps reduce fatigue such as swelling and dryness. Further so, hair oils fill up any gaps between the cuticle cells which prevents the penetration of any damaging substances in the hair follicle. Mineral and vegetable oils are used to make a variety of commercial and traditional hair oils. Coconut oil is a common ingredient and brands which use this include Parachute. Natural hair oils of Almond, Sesame, Olive, Grape seed, Jojoba, Coconut, and Argan are considered supreme oils, best suitable for healthy hair growth. They can be applied directly on the hair as well as the skin. Even essential oils consisting of Lavender and Lemongrass have numerous qualities that help nourish and strengthen the hair. These are the best hair oils that not only bestow an amazing fragrance but also contain enriching properties that benefit your hair to a great extent. Coconut oil is a commonly used oil in hair products and just by itself. Coconut oil was found to have properties that reduce protein loss in hair when used before and after washing.

The Hibiscus rosa-sinensis Linn. (HRS), the national flower of Malaysia, is famous for its use in various traditional medicine. However, its usage as an activating agent has not received much attention it deserved. Therefore, this study was directed towards the use of HRS for hair growth as a substitute for the present commercially available drug. In this work, petroleum ether was used to extract both leaves and flowers of HRS. Its potential for hair growth was evaluated in vivo. One percent crude extract of leaves and flowers of HRS in liquid paraffin was applied topically over the shaved rats of Dawley Sprague. The rats were monitored and assessed for growth of hair for 42 days. The results for the study were divided into two parts namely the hair length was determined in vivo and the histology study of the shaved area of rats. From this study, it was concluded that the leaf extract exhibited more potential for hair growth compared to the flower component.
