Chemical composition

AHK-Cu, or L-Alanyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine-Copper, is a tripeptide consisting of three amino acids bound to a copper ion. This copper-peptide complex has been studied for its potential role in hair follicle biology, including its effects on dermal papilla cells and isolated hair follicles.

Mechanism of action

AHK-Cu is know to influence signaling within the hair follicle, with particular interest around dermal papilla cells. By supporting processes involved in cell activity and follicle development, it may help create a more supportive environment for healthy hair growth and cycling.

Potential research benefits

SUPPORTS HAIR FOLLICLE GROWTH

AHK-Cu has been studied in human hair follicle models, where it increased follicle elongation at tested concentrations. These findings make it an interesting peptide for hair follicle growth and cycling.

TARGETS DERMAL PAPILLA CELL ACTIVITY

Dermal papilla cells sit at the base of the hair follicle and play an important role in regulating hair growth. AHK-Cu was found to increase the proliferation of these cells.

NOURISHES THE SCALP ENVIRONMENT

As a copper peptide, AHK-Cu is being explored for its interaction with the cellular environment surrounding the hair follicle, particularly the conditions associated with healthier hair growth.

MADE FOR HAIR-FOCUSED FORMULATIONS

AHK-Cu gives DIY peptide formulators another copper peptide to experiment with in topical formulations. Its hair-focused research makes it particularly interesting for exploring peptide-based approaches to scalp and hair care.

What to Expect

Most people notice changes in just days

Week 1-2

BUILDING CONSISTENCY

Regular use gives your scalp and hair follicles continued exposure to the peptide as part of your routine.
Week 3-4

ONGOING FOLLICLE SUPPORT

Continued use provides ongoing support while the hair follicles move through their natural growth cycle. You may begin to notice hair looking healthier, more conditioned, or more refreshed, depending on the rest of your routine.
Week 6-8

EARLY CHANGES

With consistent use, you may begin to notice changes in the overall appearance and condition of the hair and scalp.
Week 8–12

LONGER-TERM SUPPORT

As the natural hair cycle progresses, longer-term changes in the appearance, fullness, and condition of the hair may become easier to assess.

Usage in formulations

AHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide that can be incorporated into water-based topical formulations such as scalp serums, gels, and other leave-on treatments. Because AHK-Cu is intended for scalp-focused applications, a leave-on format provides substantially more contact time than a rinse-off product such as shampoo.

This is a pure raw peptide, meaning the powder is reconstituted with a water-based carrier. ScantiHA is designed as a DIY peptide serum base and can be used as a convenient carrier for topical peptide formulations.
