Senior Member augustya Posted April 7, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 7, 2020 Does anyone have any experience with Nioxin Products ? There is this one product that Nioxin is selling and on its website it says it is used for Thickening of Hair ! I was intrigued with it, my feeling is cannot be any magic formula other than Minoxdil. Any actual users who can share their feedback here ? https://www.nioxin.com/en-US/hair-loss-products/system-kit-1 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member LaserCap Posted April 7, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 7, 2020 Some years ago I was told they contain Rogaine and thus the claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gillenator Posted April 7, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 7, 2020 The claims of hair thickening is probably more related to the thickening of hair shaft diameter, not density.

Senior Member Sean Posted April 9, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 9, 2020 Nioxin is a decent shampoo. It increases shaft diameter but does not regrow hairs. Takes 3-4 uses to see it build up. Also keeps scalp feeling fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they dont sell only Shampoo it is a 3 Tier Treatment Program that they have. Do you know anything about this System-1 product line that they have ?

Senior Member Sean Posted April 9, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 9, 2020 System 1 cleanser and conditioner is best for noticeably thinning hair. It’s one ive used and has helped in some cases. Also, the shampoo doesn’t seem to leave scalp oily as some other shampoos may do. Remember, the Oily the shampoo is, the thinner it will make your hair look, esp if you are thinning hair and losing hair already. If you have very very mild thinning then you move to nioxin system 2. Both are good, you can alternate in between them. remember, you should not use same shampoo for weeks, your hair gets used to it. Definitely, it is good to alternate different shampoos in between. Best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member GE90 Posted April 9, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted April 9, 2020 How early after HT can you introduce nioxin shampoo and conditioner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Sean Posted April 9, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted April 9, 2020 Id wait till the area heals a bit. Some doctors have patients use dilated baby shampoos for 2-3 months after hair transplant. Then afterwards other shampoos. In order for nioxin to actually look effective, some of your hair has to be grown out already. You need at least 1.5 to 2 inchs of hair to see how it adds a thickening effect to it. It would be pointless to waste it on a shaved head or buzzed head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
