NIOXIN Scalp + Hair Thickening System Kits | For Natural, Colored, & Damaged Hair with Light to Progressed Thinning | Strengthen & Boost Hair Density with Niacinamide & Biotin | 1 Month Supply

Glory be to GOD!! Thank God that I found this product! Thank God for the person who started this company! Thank God for the people who work at Nioxin! Thank God for my hairdresser who recommended it! And Thank God that IT WORKED!!!I'm an early 40's female. After the first time I had COVID, I noticed my hair was falling out. Not in "clumps" so to speak, but definitely more than usual. The hair loss had started about a month after and seemed to subside within another month or two. But after this last time I had COVID, just when I thought the hair shedding was getting better, it got worse again.I love baking and cooking for others, but my hair shedding got to a point where I thought I'd never be able to do that again. One of my BIGGEST FEARS was that someone would find a hair in the food I made. It did happen to my immediate family a couple of times, and that was bad enough. But if it happened with friends, neighbors, or at a church potluck?! Oh, that would be mortifying! It was stressful to say the least.I had my blood tested and no hormonal imbalances, no deficiencies. As far as I knew, I didn't have any hair re-growth issues. But the growth just couldn't keep up with the loss. When I washed my hair and combed it out, I could see scalp far too easily. I became concerned. To a point where I perused the wigs on Amazon...in case it came down to it.I also looked for hair growth shampoos, but I didn't want to pick just anything. I can be a bit of a conspiracy theorist when it comes to everyday products. Are these people truly offering me something that will help? Or will it hurt me only enough to try and get me to buy more product? How can I trust just any product off the internet? So, I asked my hair dresser. She recommended Nioxin System 2 for me.It seemed expensive, but I was willing to try it. And I was SHOCKED that after my FIRST WASH, I had significantly less hair loss! I wondered if perhaps my old shampoo had some chemicals that just killed my hair!I continued for a month, shampooing (It has a really good lather), combing the conditioner through my hair with my fingers, and adding the foam to my scalp with every wash. In the attached picture that shows my wash-by-wash progress, I finally hit a day where I had LESS THAN 15 STRANDS LOST IN ONE DAY by Wash 20. I was SOLD! Of course, I've continued to use it. After the first month, I changed from using the foam everyday to only 3-4 times a week. It's been almost 3 months now, and sometimes I still have 10 or so strands, and a little more so when I skip a day to wash my hair. But there have also been days where I've only had 2 or 4 strands of hair lost from my wash. IT'S TRULY AMAZING!!!Keep in mind that when I talk about hair loss on Nioxin (and the attached progress pics), I'm only referencing hair lost from the wash and conditioning. It's not reflective of a full day's loss. I had some in my hairbrush after, but not enough to make a significant difference. I rarely see loose strands on my shirts, and I haven't had one stuck in my bra since I started. (Ladies, you know the struggle. LOL)I love the minty scent! It's calming to me, and even more calming knowing that IT WORKS!!!I'll be honest. The foam does make my hair feel a little sticky when I put too much on. But it also makes my hair feel much fuller than usual and gives it great body! Before I purchased the product, I saw reviews with pictures of people with their face blotched red. The back of the foam bottle does say it's got a chemical that can cause temporary redness, but I haven't had any trouble with that. (But then again, I don't typically rub the foam on my face since it's supposed to be a scalp thing.)Also at this point, while I do see a little hair growth, I don't know if that's normal hair growth or growth due to Nioxin. It definitely doesn't feel too much thicker (without the foam), but I've heard your hair only grows 1/2 inch a month, so it will take some time.I thank God and Nioxin that I now feel like I have more of a chance to see myself with full, flowing locks again someday soon!
