'''Tricomin''' is a purported non-drug alternative to prevent [[hair loss]] and [[alopecia]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.healthyhairhighlights.com/hair_loss_and_hair_growth_in_bible.html|title=Tricomin the paramount stand-in of hair loss and alopecia with the allusion of Bible|publisher=Healthy Hair Highlights News|date=22 July 2011 | accessdate=2011-06-09}}</ref>, with a [[Copper peptide GHK-Cu|copper peptide]] as a key ingredient. The product is manufactured by the [[ProCyte]] corporation.

Tricomin is a superoxide dismutase formed from a metal complexed peptide. This works as a hair growth stimulant by improving collagen synthesis and possibly repairing skin and hair function. An 80% response rate has been reported for Tricomin in early tests. Phase II FDA clinical trial results were released which reported positive growth effects. The company has released a line of products, including shampoos, conditioners, and a therapy spray, which are available from doctors and mail order distributors.  They are marketing the product as a cosmetic rather than going through FDA approval.
