I currently am using Skin Biology's Folligen with a mixture of emu and castor oils on my brows at night. After years of neglecting my brows, I realized I have overplucked them and want to grow them out.
I have used the Folligen for a few months now and I do think it helps but I was wondering if a product with a stronger concentration of copper peptides would promote more growth, faster.
I was looking at SkinBiology's Super GHK-Copper Serum... has anyone used it for hair growth? Should I stick with the folligen?
Any input would be greatly appreciated! |

Super GHK serum is the gentlest CP made by SB.
I'd just stick w/ the Folligen. It'll probably take a while. I started to apply it to mine where they were looking kinda scragly and thin in spots and it has grown new, darker hairs. I also use Super CP serum (one of the strongest CPs) for my face and have not noticed any hair growth near my brows from that since it does get applied on them. |

| Some ppl are having regrowth with Lumigan/Latisse. That's primarily what I am using it for -- I'll keep you posted! So far, after about 3wks I see some darkening of the existing brow hairs. I just hope that I don't wake up one of these days looking like a Schnauzer!!! |

Thanks for the advice. I do think the Folligen helps - brows just seem to take sooo long to grow back!
I'll stick with my current regimen. I'll keep my eye out on the lumigan/latisse as well - haha and yes, I hope no one wakes up 1 day looking like a Schnauzer! |

Hi, I think you should stick to the Folligen if you're seeing results.
Last month I bought a bottle of Super CP serum without throughly doing my research and then afterwards I chickened out. I didn't want to waste the serum, so I decided to try it on the brows. I was really careful in applying the liquid to my eyebrows with a Qtip, and then wiping off the surrounding skin with a wet cotton pad. It's been about 2 weeks (2x/week) since I started but I suspect I'm allergic to it as the skin approximately 1 cm above and below my brows have become extremely bumpy (like contact dermatitis). Not sure it this is "the uglies" 
I'm not 100% positive it's the CPs causing this wierd reaction, but I'm definitely backing off until my skin returns to normal. So I think so long as Folligen is working for you, it's probably safest not to experiment with the strong stuff! Good luck! |

I have similar experience with Lumigan.. After using Lumigan for a month, I notice that my brows are getting thicker. I'm pleased with the results so far.  |
