Has anyone used Nioxin shampoo/cleanser/scalp therapy?

Kellyj574 thanks for the great response. If you aren't using Nioxin' date=' are you using anything to help with your hair loss?[/quote']

I am not using anything special... I chose to use a scalp therapy Shampoo made by matrix, more widely known as biolage, and I love it. ( and smells AMAZING). it keeps my scalp clean and helps keep my hair moisturized. I don't know about all of you, but along with the Hair loss I experienced quite a bit of dry scalp. So I wanted to nourish that...

Anyhow, I'm glad to see I could help! =)

I agree with you Kelly. I am a stylist as well. We haven't been able to sell Nioxin since the change. I will tell you that Redken has an amazing product. Intraforce has shocked me with the results. I have an older client that was on the verge of purchasing a wig. She's been using it for a couple of months now' date=' and when I do her hair I no longer see scalp. Noticable Hair growth. Very impressed with this product. Please purchase your products from a professional salon to insure quality.[/quote']

I haven't tried the redken yet,, glad to hear that it's a good product!! And thanks for sharing!! I just love success stories! =)

Good luck to everyone!!!

And by the way, for future references to all, feel free to ask about any hair questions... Chances are what's happening now is related to your surgery, francieb and I will most likely be able to point you in the right direction =)

Reply To Noneya regarding using Nioxin;

Yes, I used Nioxin for years before it was bought out and the formula was changed. I can tell you ABSOLUTELY it does not work the same. Nioxin promised that if a person used the cleanser and conditioner (scalp therapy) on a regular basis, they would not continue to lose their hair - they guaranteed this and over the years I found that to be true. I did also use their treatments and experienced new Hair growth. But I noticed a change - suddenly I started Hair loss despite using the product. Since I had a habit of switching (color treated / not color treated, large bottles / travel size bottles) I still had old product available to me. When I used the new product I had hair loss, when I went back to the old product I had NO hair loss. It was MANY conversations before they would admit to me they had changed the formula, and the timing was consistent with their changes. So yes - ABSOLUTELY they have not improved the product with their changes - they've ruined it. They can NO LONGER guarantee NO hair loss by using Nioxin, and it's a shame. I used the original formula on and off for about fifteen years, so I think I have an informed opinion ) And I'm glad to see that people are speaking out about it - they've tried to tell me I'm the ONLY ONE reporting that Nioxin doesn't work anymore.
