Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of hair darkening and daily chemical health products, and relates to a hair darkening plant extract composition liquid and its preparation method. In particular, it relates to a compound topical liquid that can provide hair follicles with melanin synthesis precursors - tyrosine / its donors, supplement tyrosinase cofactors, such as copper ions and B vitamins, and improve transdermal utilization through a penetration-promoting system. Background Technology
[0002] Hair plays a crucial role in a person's appearance; its color, shine, and density directly impact facial aesthetics and self-confidence. With the fast pace of life, unhealthy lifestyles, and increased environmental stress, problems such as gray hair and hair loss are on the rise across different age groups, with a noticeable trend towards affecting younger people. The causes of gray hair can be broadly categorized into two types: reversible gray hair, primarily caused by acute / chronic stress, malnutrition, medications, or reversible diseases; and irreversible gray hair, mainly caused by genetic factors or age-related follicular aging. Clinical and empirical observations indicate that the former can be reversed to some extent with improved nutrition, stress reduction, or targeted treatment, while the latter is generally difficult to completely reverse with short-term topical medications. Clarifying these etiological differences is a prerequisite for developing effective formulations and treatment outcomes in this field.
[0003] Currently, topical "hair darkening / hair growth" products available on the market and in publicly available literature mainly employ two strategies:
[0004] One type is physical dyeing / dyeing agents, which use pigments or chemical dyes to color the surface of the hair to achieve a short-term effect of covering gray hair;
[0005] The second category is single melanin-promoting or hair growth decoctions, which use Chinese herbal decoctions, essential oils, or single active substances to claim that they promote hair follicle function or melanin synthesis.
[0006] However, these solutions have several technical shortcomings: First, while physical covering can quickly improve appearance, it does not change the melanin synthesis system within the hair follicle, and the color is easily lost after hair loss or shampooing; second, many topical formulas that claim to promote melanin production only provide single plant extracts or essential oils, lacking a holistic formulation and process design that works synergistically from four aspects: "substrate required for melanin synthesis (such as tyrosine) + enzyme cofactor (such as Cu²⁺) + vitamin support (such as B12 / folic acid) + penetration promotion system". Therefore, the actual reversal effect on stress / nutritional gray hair is limited and unstable.
[0007] The aforementioned situation can also be seen in existing published patents and texts. Taking the published topical herbal hair growth and darkening liquid as an example, its formula focuses on the decoction of several traditional Chinese medicines and the combination of essential oils, and uses a comb tool to improve local drug delivery. However, it does not systematically discuss the co-supply of substrate and cofactor, the low-temperature preservation of heat-sensitive vitamins, and the promotion of transdermal absorption by nano / lipids, thus limiting its reproducible efficacy and mechanism support in "reversible gray hair nutritional reversal".
[0008] Furthermore, many existing patents and published documents share common problems at the process level: most employ high-temperature, high-pressure decoction or prolonged water decoction, or ordinary extraction processes, resulting in significant losses of heat-sensitive active components such as vitamins and anthocyanins, which are easily affected by light and heat, thus failing to maximize the retention of melanin-promoting active substances; while hydrophilic precursors (such as tyrosine) and certain inorganic trace elements (such as copper and zinc) are difficult to penetrate the stratum corneum to reach the base of the hair follicle in conventional topical matrices, lacking efficient carriers or adjuvants to improve local utilization and stability. Existing literature and patents have offered solutions with different focuses to address these technical blind spots, but often emphasize only one aspect—such as improving penetration or providing only a nutritional decoction—failing to simultaneously solve the complex problem of penetration, stability, and biological activation using a synergistic four-in-one strategy of "substrate + cofactor + vitamin + carrier." See the published patent for a traditional Chinese medicine formula for head care, which is similar to common practices in the field in terms of ingredients and high-temperature decoction processes, also reflecting the aforementioned shortcomings.
[0009] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the field for a topical composition and preparation method that can retain the activity of heat-sensitive nutrient factors and anthocyanins, provide the substrates and enzyme cofactors required for melanin synthesis, and efficiently deliver these components to the hair follicle basal layer through a low-irritation permeation system.
[0010] Based on the identification of the above-mentioned technical problems, this invention proposes a systematic technical route that combines natural tyrosine sources, vitamin B precursors, trace metal cofactors, and multimodal extraction processes such as low-temperature / alcohol cold soaking, and uses a nano / lipid system composed of lipid auxiliaries and polyols to improve scalp penetration, thereby achieving nutritional reversal of stress-induced and nutritionally reversible gray hair and activation of melanin biosynthesis.

[0037] Preferably, the total ethanol content of the finished compound solution is ≤8% (v / v).
[0038] Preferably, the ultrasonic treatment in step 7) is performed at 300–600 W with an interval of 5–15 min; or the mechanical homogenization is performed at 100–1000 bar.
[0039] Preferably, the average particle size of the nano-dispersion system obtained in step 7) is 80–400 nm.
[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the skin penetration of tyrosine and other active ingredients is improved after formulation, thereby increasing the survival rate of melanin.
[0041] The present invention also provides a method for using a hair-darkening plant extract composition liquid, characterized in that it is applied to the scalp, 1-5 mL per application area and gently massaged for 1-3 minutes each time to allow the liquid to be fully absorbed by the scalp; used 1-2 times per night or day, for 2-6 months as one course of treatment.
[0042] Preferably, the composition solution can be applied using a comb kit, the comb kit including a solution chamber and a sponge exudate layer, so as to evenly apply the solution to the scalp.
[0043] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0044] 1) Black beans / sesame seeds, as natural sources of tyrosine or its precursors, provide essential substrates for melanin biosynthesis; dried apricots / oats are rich in trace elements such as copper and zinc (or can serve as a supplementary source of trace copper); kale, with its B9 / B12 precursors preserved through low-temperature extraction, supports hair follicle cell division and DNA synthesis, thus providing a nutritional foundation for reversible gray hair restoration.
[0045] 2) Geraniol, as a natural terpene, increases the fluidity of the stratum corneum; DOPC forms a lipophilic phase that encapsulates hydrophilic substrates and also acts as a membrane phase aid; polyols improve the hydrophilic / lipophilic balance and act as a penetration aid; the three work synergistically and are prepared into nano-dispersions through ultrasonic / high pressure homogenization, which significantly improves the local utilization rate of tyrosine and trace elements into the hair follicle basal layer.
[0046] 3) Ligusticum chuanxiong can promote local microcirculation and dilate capillaries, which is beneficial to the supply of nutrients to hair follicles; mulberry is rich in anthocyanins and other strong antioxidants, which can reduce the damage of oxidative stress to melanocytes. The combined effect of the two helps to delay the formation of new gray hair and improve the microenvironment of hair follicles.
[0047] 4) While using alcohol to improve the dissolution and preservation of certain ingredients, the alcohol content in the finished product is limited to a mild range. Combined with the moisturizing effects of glycerin and propylene glycol, it can not only improve greasiness in the short term and provide antibacterial assistance, but also avoid long-term dryness or irritation.
[0048] In summary, this invention systematically combines natural tyrosine sources (such as black beans and sesame seeds) with trace element sources (such as dried apricots and oats) and B vitamin sources (such as kale) to construct a synergistic compound topical hair-darkening preparation with a "substrate-cofactor-vitamin-penetration" mechanism. Furthermore, it improves hair follicle microcirculation and provides antioxidant protection through extracts of Ligusticum chuanxiong and mulberry. The extraction process utilizes low-temperature treatment and alcohol cold soaking, and the alcohol content in the finished product is controlled to ≤8% v / v to balance ingredient preservation, sterilization, and moisturizing. By setting the pH to 4.5–6.5 (close to the skin's slightly acidic pH) and employing a low concentration of natural terpenes and a glycerin / propylene glycol moisturizing system, the risk of irritation is reduced, making it suitable for frequent topical application. This invention has significant advantages in nutritional reversal of stress / nutritional (reversible) gray hair, activation of melanin synthesis, low irritation, and industrial-scale production feasibility.

[0111] Comparative Example 1: Black bean decoction only (naked liquid).
[0112] Comparative Example 2: Formulation in the prior art
[0113] A topical herbal hair growth and darkening liquid is made from the following components: 40-60 parts ginger, 40-60 parts mugwort, 70-100 parts arborvitae leaves, 15-25 parts safflower, 20-40 parts angelica dahurica, 20-40 parts tribulus terrestris, 50-80 parts processed he shou wu, and 80-120 parts black beans.
[0114] Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were performed as follows: A. Skin penetration (Franz cell in vitro penetration); B. Cellular functional verification (tyrosinase activity, melanin production); C. Comparison of simulated clinical / human observation indicators with skin tolerance tests.
[0115] Experimental methods:
[0116] The skin sample was placed in a Franz cell (corne side out), the receiving chamber was filled with PBS, and pre-equilibrated for 30 min;
[0117] Apply an equal amount of sample (equal active ingredient or equal volume, such as 200 μL) to the stratum corneum of the donor pool;
[0118] Sampling: 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24 h. At each time point, a certain volume of the receiving solution was taken (and replaced with an equal volume of fresh PBS), and stored at −20 ℃ for analysis.
[0119] After 24 hours, the skin sample was removed and the surface was washed (the eluent was recorded). Then, the epidermis / dermis was separated (hot water method or enzymatic hydrolysis method) and weighed. The epidermis / dermis / hair follicle area was dissolved (e.g., NaOH extraction or organic solvent extraction) and the key components were quantified.
[0120] The results are shown in the table below:
[0121] 24-hour cumulative transmittance % Tyrosinase activity Increased melanin content % 3-month reversal rate % Example 1 22.1 1.8 18 45 Example 2 35.3 2.4 30 62 Example 3 42.0 2.9 38 70 Comparative Example 1 5.0 1.1 4 10 Comparative Example 2 12.0 1.6 12 40
[0122] As can be seen from the table, the nano / lipid system (Ex1–Ex3) of this invention significantly improves the penetration rate of hydrophilic tyrosine and related small molecules to the dermis / hair follicle, and the effect increases in a dose-dependent manner with the increase of DOPC / adjuvant content and nano-intensity. The formulation of this invention can significantly enhance tyrosinase activity and melanin biosynthesis, and the nanolipid encapsulation and co-supply of trace copper / vitamins make the Ex2 / Ex3 effect superior to the empty or traditional compound formulation. Compared with black bean extract alone or traditional compound formulations, this invention significantly improves the penetration rate of key active ingredients to hair follicles, tyrosinase activity and melanin synthesis through the synergistic strategy of "tyrosine substrate + trace elements + B vitamins + multi-level penetration / nanolipid carrier", and shows a higher visible reversal rate in simulated human use, while maintaining good skin tolerance.
