The barks of Albazia saponaria has collected from the Tolaki tribe, South Konawe, Southeast Sulawesi. Extraction was carried out by maceration and it's fractionated by using liquid-liquid extraction methods. Phytochemical screening according to the Farnsworth method. The hair growth activity for male rabbits is using the modified Tanaka method. The phytochemical screening showed that the ethanol extract contained tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, phenols, and triterpenoids. The results of the hair growth activity showed that the ethanol and water extract of concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% significantly fertilized the rabbit male hairs for 24 days. The ethanol extract and water fraction with a concentration of 15% albizia barks have been showing a p-value <0.05. The results showed that the ethanol extract and water fraction of Albizia saponaria barks were effective for rabbit hair growth and Albizia saponaria has the potential for hair growth.
