Shampoo & Scalp Care Well documented
Nioxin System Kit 2
Nioxin (Wella) · For Menopause shedding · $35(trial)~$99
Nioxin's System Kit 2 is a well-known three-step routine that reliably makes hair look and feel fuller while you use it. Be clear on what that is: a cosmetic thickening effect that lasts only as long as you keep using it, not a treatment for the underlying thinning. Some find it drying or irritating at first.
Who it is for
- You want hair to look and feel thicker day to day
- You will match the system to your scalp type
Who it is not for
- You expect it to change the underlying thinning
- You have a dry or easily irritated scalp
What users report
- Consistent reports that hair looks and feels thicker while using it (forums)
- A 30-day study found most users perceived thicker hair (brand study)
Complaints and concerns
- The effect is cosmetic and lasts only while you use it (community consensus)
- Early irritation or dryness for some, partly from sulfates (user reviews)
Before you try it
- Pick the right system number for your scalp type
- It is scalp and hair care, not a hair-loss treatment
Ingredients and proposed mechanism
