What is the GHK-Cu Hair Serum?
Most hair products are made for the lengths of the hair. A scalp serum goes on at the roots instead, in small amounts, and stays there. This one carries a high 10% concentration of GHK-Cu alongside panthenol for softness and manageability, glycerin and polyglutamic acid to keep the scalp hydrated, and centella asiatica and licorice root extracts for a calm, comfortable feel.
With consistent use, hair looks fuller, thicker and healthier, with a conditioned, polished finish. Thin or fragile-feeling hair feels stronger and easier to manage, and the scalp feels refreshed rather than oily.

About GHK-Cu (copper tripeptide-1)
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of glycyl-histidyl-lysine, a three-amino-acid peptide first identified in human plasma in 1973. In cosmetics it appears on labels as copper tripeptide-1, and the copper is what gives this serum its clear blue tint. The 10% on the label is the formula’s GHK-Cu content, a high level for a leave-in product.

Pairing tips
Works well with
- A gentle shampoo, so the serum goes onto a clean scalp
- Your usual conditioner on the lengths, not the scalp
- The GHK-Cu Facial Serum in your evening face routine
Keep in mind
- Apply to the scalp, not the lengths
- Keep it away from the eyes
- Don’t apply to a broken or irritated scalp
Good to know: for external use only. Patch test on a small area, such as behind the ear or on the inner forearm, 24 to 48 hours before first use. Avoid the eyes, wash your hands after applying, and stop using the serum if irritation develops. Keep the bottle tightly closed, away from heat and direct sunlight, and out of reach of children.

Yes. Use it on clean hair that is either damp or dry.
Will it make my hair greasy?
