<![CDATA[ Hair loss is a condition experienced by many individuals, influenced by both internal and external factors. One effort to treat it is the use of natural hair tonics. Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is known to contain flavonoids that have the potential to promote hair growth through their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and scalp microcirculation-improving properties. This study aims to formulate and evaluate the preparation of a hair tonic using bean extract (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) as a hair growth agent in male white rabbits by testing its hair growth activity. The standardization of simplicia and extracts was carried out using specific and non-specific parameters, both of which met the applicable requirements. The extract was formulated in three concentration: FI (9% bean extract), FII with 12% bean extract and FIII with 15% bean extract. The evaluation of hair tonic preparations from the results of this study showed that the three hair tonic formulas, both in terms of their characteristics and physical and chemical properties: organoleptic, homogeneity, sprayability, pH, viscosity, stability, and irritation test, met the existing requirements.. The results of the hair growth activity test showed that FI had a hair growth ability of 0.41 cm ± 0,009 with a hair weight of 59,90 mg ± 1,141, FII had a hair growth ability of 0,45 cm ± 0,005 with a weight of 65,90 mg ± 0,415 and FIII had the best hair growth ability of other formulas namely 0,49 cm ± 0,005 with a weight of 71 mg ± 0,418.
