Over the last couple of months I have been doing some experiments. The thing is: I have very light eyelashes and some grey hair, so I read something about the possible treatments.
Acetyl hexapeptide 1 increases melanin: so I ordered a liquid batch. A seller told me to mix with in a five percent solution with 10 pct DMI. Another one told me DMI is not necessary but you should keep the PH level between 5 and 7.
For many months I've been trying different formulas and got some results. Some lashes came in much darker.
The problem is: I have been mixing batches, not measuring the PH for a week and then it appeared to be too low, then I added baking soda and it got too high, so I added acid to lower it. This probably destroys a peptide I think? I notice the greys are a bit less.
Now somebody recommended me to add AH1 ( also named melitane) to saline water without the use of DMI, but maybe to have better results I could apply DMI ( diluted with water) right afterwards so the peptide doesnt get destroyed.
Another melanin enhancing agent is forskolin although I don't know how to put it in a formula, as it is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and DMSO, I definitely ( also) want to use it around the eyes, so I don't know if a diluted version ( or softened by softening agents would be an option)
I know it's not directly linked to hairloss but as many of you guys have experience with this, it would be great to have some feedback.
