Product Information

But you could start with a hair loss prevention shampoo, and maybe the Nioxin scalp therapy conditioner. Or try a trial-sized kit instead. Here is the brand’s own Nioxin Shampoo Review: Nioxin products have been the subject of research and discussion among hair care experts and scientists. Here are some examples of what they have to say, along with associated links: Scalp-focused approach: Nioxin products are designed with a scalp-focused approach to hair care. This means that they are formulated to help improve the health of the scalp, which in turn can promote healthier, fuller-looking hair. Nioxin’s cleansers, conditioners, and treatments are all formulated with ingredients that are specifically chosen to target the scalp and improve its overall health. This Nioxin shampoo review recommends discontinuing use immediately if you experience any allergic reactions or warning signs. What happens if you stop using Nioxin? But it did make my existing hair a lot stronger. In fact, I only noticed how much I’d come to depend on Nioxin when my little travel bottles of the shampoo and conditioner ran out and I had to use normal shampoo again. The almost instantaneous result was dry, brittle hair, increased hair fall and bigger patches.

Salesy, right? Definitely. But it actually delivers on these points in terms of treating men and women’s thinning hair. And even though I felt a little silly using something ‘designed to strengthen, nourish and repair thinning hair from its foundation’ when I had no hair at all, I soldiered on.

About Lady Alopecia

Hi Estefania, I’m so sorry to hear about your recent, and sudden, hair loss. Unfortunately, I don’t have a simple answer or solution for your as alopecia is such a complex thing. Perhaps you haven’t changed your hair treatment plan but has anything else in your life changed that might have triggered this sudden loss? As it can often be triggered by hormonal imbalances, times of stress or trauma (the effects of which can be delayed for months, even years, thereafter) or changes in your lifestyle/environment. Even something like changes in the water you use to shower, or taking up exercise that might be too physically demanding (to reduce stress/inflammation in the body, slower forms like yoga are recommended, as opposed to high-intensity stuff). I’d also have a look at this post I wrote with nutritional information/advice, perhaps it might be of help? Aside from being confusing, these turnarounds can be costly. And quite time-consuming – there’s no such thing as falling into bed without first rubbing an assortment of smelly products into your scalp. (So there goes your social life!) 3. It requires commitment The credibility of the hair loss treatment has also been called into question, with customers complaining that Nioxin changed its formula since P&G took over. (It now contains sodium laureth sulfate – find sulfate free options here). Niacin: Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, helps to improve blood flow to the scalp and promote healthy hair growth. According to a study published in the International Journal of Trichology, topical application of niacin can increase hair growth and improve hair density in people with androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness).

Panthenol: Panthenol, also known as provitamin B5, is a humectant that helps to improve the moisture content of the hair and scalp. According to a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Science, topical application of panthenol can improve hair strength and reduce hair breakage. But one treatment really made a difference – hence the reason for this Nioxin shampoo review. Welcome to Lady Alopecia’s thoughts on Nioxin One of the most frustrating things about alopecia is the feeling that you can’t do anything about it. And this stress might lead to more hair falling out. It’s a cruel circle that can cause alopecia sufferers to feel pretty helpless. However, those with less extensive hair thinning might see great results by using just a few of the hair products from system 1, 3 or 5. They last for a long time, too. 2. It’s extensiveMay promote healthier hair growth: Nioxin products contain ingredients such as biotin, niacin, and panthenol, which may help to improve the health of the hair and scalp and promote hair growth. Next I noticed that the ingredients were DIFFERENT, despite no notification from the manufacturer that this would occur. Fine or thinning hair is suddenly volumized. Male and female-pattern baldness patches fill in. Shedding stops and self-esteem soars. Many male reviewers vote it as the best men’s shampoo for thinning hair, too. I can’t say enough good things about the Nioxin hair care system. Not only does it smell great, it feels very invigorating on my scalp. Also since using this system, my hair doesn’t fall out half as much as it used to. And my curls look amazing. My hair feels so healthy and clean after as well.”

From my own research and my own use, I found this hair loss shampoo to be pretty effective. I used Nioxin hair care products long after the takeover in 2008 and they worked for me,” reads a testimonial by Lady Alopecia. Apply the Nioxin scalp therapy conditioner. After shampooing, apply a small amount of the conditioner to your hair, focusing on the scalp. Leave it on for 1-3 minutes and then rinse thoroughly.

These ingredients have been shown in studies to help improve hair density and reduce hair shedding. With the moisture control and sebum-removing qualities that Nioxin products offer, the scalp becomes neither too dry nor too oily. For instance, the scalp and hair treatment that comes with the 3D kit (and is also available as a standalone product) contains sunscreen – so I was free to bare my patches without fear of burning or flaking. 2.

My recommendation is, if you’re not noticing any adverse effects, to continue use for the recommended 6 months. On the nights when you don’t use the products, you could try a gentle combination like Pura D’Or. And try rubbing in coconut oil with a few drops of peppermint essential oil in (leaving it in as an overnight hair mask) once or twice a week if you can. Or if you want to stop using Nioxin, try these methods anyway to maintain the overall health of your scalp. Have a look at this post on nutrition tips, too, if that’s of any help. I’m 6 weeks into the AIP diet I mentioned and, combined with using Nioxin 3 times a week and a variety of supplements, I’m experiencing regrowth in patches that haven’t seen fuzz for years! Meanwhile, the cleanser itself focuses on what Nioxin calls “the 3Ds of haircare” – Denisty, Derma and Diameter. Basically meaning that hair strands expand to look bigger than they actually are. Fake it ’til you make it, right?! May cause scalp irritation: Some users have reported experiencing scalp irritation or dryness after using Nioxin products. This may be due to the active ingredients in the products, or to an individual sensitivity or allergy.Containing one bottle each of shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in treatment, this kit is made for those with natural hair and suffer from light thinning. I’m talking about the hair shaft, of course. Shame on you.) The thing is, when you do have some hair to bare, Nioxin treats each follicle in a kinder way. For instance, the lightweight conditioner contains vital amino acids for moisture balance. This protects each hair strand against the damages of environmental stresses and reduces breakage.
