Nioxin 3D Styling Bodifying Foam 200 ml

Product Information

But my research has shown me that the new formula contains selenium sulfide, which is a chemical compound found in dandruff-fighting shampoos, and which can actually increase hair loss. Why am I telling you this? Well, Nioxin wasn’t always owned by P & G. It was developed in the 80s by mother Eva Graham to help with the loss of her thinning hair after she had her child. This in itself helps us to understand one of the best use cases for Nioxin; temporary hair loss.

Whilst you’re likely to find some reports on the internet of people using Nioxin for genetic hair loss, this isn’t what it is intended for and the brand have made no such claims. You can try it if you’re experiencing this, but you’re likely better going for a stronger solution like Minoxidil. The Reality of Nioxin I’m never going to have a lushous head of hair but I have never felt so great about my hair – ever!!!. That alone is enough to convince me to continue with the brand – but not the scalp whatsit.Many people look at Nioxin as if it’s a saving grace and going to turn them from George Costanza to Danny Zuko. I can promise you, this really isn’t the case. Now, I haven’t tried every product in the following systems. But if you want to go further in your Nioxin journey, you can choose from the following… 1. Intensive Care Range Featuring all the lovely healthy stuff like botanicals, vitamins and antioxidants to remove unwanted excess sebum and unclog those follicles. Sounds gross. But is effective. Activ-Renewal Ok and then it happens. Week 3. I’m looking in the mirror – brushing my hair and then I see these little hairs on the top of my head. It’s like you’ve cut parts of your hair down to an inch long and I realize – I haven’t cut my hair – that’s hair that’s growing! WOW

This is something that made me decide to use Nioxin in the first place! I hate the idea of holding my head over the sink for 45 minutes to let it sink in, or having to apply 6 drops of whatever to my scalp 24 times a day. Okay, that’s an exaggeration but you get my point. So, Nioxin is for thinning hair? Once out of the shower – it’s time to apply the scalp treatment. Here’s the problem – there’s not really any good instructions about how much I should be using. Shake well and apply to scalp. Leave in. That’s it. More worry – will this make my hair look greasy? Deep breath and leap of faith. I apply to my scalp all over with about 8 squirts (I later find out this is correct)and rub in. The hair regrowth treatment for women contains 2% minoxidil – one of the ingredients in popular brand Rogaine and proven to assist in regrowth. It might not match the best shampoo for female hair loss – whatever that is – but it’s worth a try.

Nioxin Ingredients

In regards to the shampoo and conditioner within this line, they don’t appear to be all that different to the ones in the usual 3D system. But feel free to try them out and tell me otherwise! 3. 3D Styling Range Diameter: Size matters. In terms of follicles, anyway. And thin, brittle strands indicate low keratin levels – plus a higher chance of breakage. An itchy, red scalp– Probably the most common side effect that I’ve seen people experience when using Nioxin is issues with their scalp. Most commonly is that they find their scalp to be super itchy a few hours after they use the product. Not ideal, but it isn’t the end of the world and your scalp is likely to get used to this after using it for a prolonged period of time. An itchy scalp is pretty common when you start to use a new hair shampoo, anyways. If your loss is more extensive, choose between Systems 2, 4 and 6. Use the recommendations under “Hair Type” above to help you make your final decision. 3. Price

Flakes –As someone who experienced a lot of dandruff when they were younger, the idea of a flaky scalp makes me cringe. This is unfortunately one of the side effects that you’re likely to experience if you’re using Nioxin. Personally, I justified the money I spent on Nioxin with the fact that I don’t spend money on hairdressers. I never go in to get my roots done, for instance. So I’ve extra cash to spend on nourishing those roots! If you experience any facial swelling or hives, discontinue use immediately and consult your GP.

Step 2: Optimize Apply a pea-sized amount of conditioner and comb it gently through your wet mop, really rubbing it into the ends. Leave it in for 2–3 minutes while you work on your shower setlist. Rinse. Step 3: Treat Obviously, the list of Nioxin ingredients varies slightly depending on what product you go for. But whether you’re using Nioxin system 2 or the one I started with, System 6, the active ingredients are the same. And each system, or kit, uses at least 3 of these patented technologies… BioAMP

The hair regrowth treatment for men contains a little more – 5% minoxidil – which may actually be more effective, by the sounds of it.

What is Nioxin?

Hi Katelin, thanks for your question and I’m so so sorry for the late reply. I had a baby at the end of August so have been offline the past few months while I get used to motherhood! 🙂 Thank you for your patience. Unfortunately, yes. Since P&G took over in 2008, the company is said to have changed its formula. Even now, it’s hard to find a comprehensive list of what’s exactly in there.
