1% Concentration 10mg/mL Glycol-Free Made in the UK
AmpleLab's AHK-Cu serum is formulated at 1% (10mg/ml) in a glycol-free hyaluronic acid base, made in the UK. A full-strength, single-active formula, clearly dosed and built for targeted use on the hair and scalp, with no unnecessary carriers or fillers.
AHK-Cu has been studied in relation to hair follicle biology, including its interaction with dermal papilla cells involved in follicle function and cycling. Research links it to follicle signalling, follicle anchoring, and reductions in markers associated with hair shedding, positioning it as a targeted copper peptide for topical hair and scalp use.

Volume
AHK-Cu is a copper tripeptide developed as a variant of the more widely known GHK-Cu, developed specifically for hair follicle activity rather than general skin repair.
Research (Pyo et al., 2007) links it to stimulation of dermal papilla cells, the specialised cells that govern follicle growth and cycling, along with extension of the hair follicle's active growth phase in laboratory studies.
Its broader research profile associates it with markers of follicle anchoring and scalp skin quality.

Formulated to a higher standard.
Standalone AHK-Cu formulations are difficult to find, and those that do exist often disclose little more than the peptide itself. AmpleLab formulates to a stated 1% concentration, with every ingredient and its function clearly listed.
Built around a glycol-free hyaluronic acid base, the formula is designed for targeted scalp application without unnecessary additions or proprietary blends.

How to Use
01
Part & Expose
Part the hair to expose the scalp in the target area. Apply directly to the skin, not the hair shaft.
02
Apply
Dispense 0.25mL using the graduated pipette and apply directly to the scalp. Use more as needed to fully cover the treatment area; the right amount varies depending on hair density and coverage.
03
Leave On
No rinsing required. Allow to absorb fully before styling. Use once daily.
