Keratinocyte Growth Factor 7 (KGF7) • Natural Hair Growth

Keratinocyte Growth Factor 7 (KGF7) is an active ingredient that may help promote healthy hair growth. When you apply KGF to the hair, skin or nails, it signals hair and nail growth while it protects against oxidants and toxins which can cause cell death.

Growth factors can be stabilized by properly formulating your product to a pH of 5-6 and with a glycerin content of 10-50% with a higher percentage being preferred. According to the the following linked study, a combination of phosphates or citric acid is the preferred pH buffer to inhibit reactions and stabilize growth factors at room temperature.
