Has anyone used Nioxin?

Question

I wanted to hear about anyone's experience with Nioxin. I have been using it for about 2 months. A little less than two years ago, I had a terrible experience with glued in hair extensions. I was uninformed (& heavily mislead) about the extreme damage that it would do to my hair. My hair thinned out drastically, and although it seems to progressively become thicker, it still is not where it used to be. I use Nioxin system 1, the cleanser, the scalp therapy (although typically do not directly apply it to my scalp every time I use it because it seems to weigh my hair down) & the scalp treatment. I take a multivitamin twice a day, a vitamin b complex, 1200 mcg biotin (recentley lowered from 2500 mcg as I thought that was too much) & 1 to 2 flaxseed oil caplets per day. I just want to hear about anyone's experience using Nioxin & how long it took them to see results,if any.

Answer 1

I have been using it for thinning hair.  I do not really notice it being any thicker.  It did give me a healthier scalp and my hair has never felt better, but thicker?  I'm not seeing it.  The bottle also says something like 8 out of 10 people perceive thicker hair.  Not got them thicker hair.  I guess it is based on your own perception.  I use the system 1 cleanser scalp therapy as well as the deep repair hair masque.  And although my hair it not getting thicker - it is not thinning anymore and feels really healthy so I am sticking with it.  I have been using it about 7-8 mos.
