Nioxin Treatment for Scalp

Nioxin scalp therapy is not a wonder elixir when it comes to growing hair. Although the website states that certain people may experience a fuller-looking head of hair, there are no guarantees. What Nioxin does provide is a healthier scalp environment and clean, well-nourished follicles. Nioxin offers a three-step product treatment plan designed to nurture and enrich eight different hair types.

  1. Cleanser

    • The cleanser is the first step in the scalp cleaning process. In order for nutrients to help create a healthier scalp, the scalp must first be cleaned of oils, toxins, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and other contaminants that rob the follicles of their ability to grow healthy, strong hair. Dihydrotestosterone, by the way, is one of the leading causes of hair loss. The cleanser should be applied, rubbed in gently and then rinsed out.

    Scalp Therapy

    • Nioxin Scalp Therapy is used to moisten the scalp and provide nutrient proteins and lipids to the follicles for a healthier scalp and head of hair. Because the goal of Nioxin is to create an environment where hair can grow and grow stronger, vitamins, moisture and protein nutrients are vital to the process. Scalp Therapy needs to be rubbed in to the scalp and left on for two minutes before rinsing.

    Scalp Treatment

    • One the hair has been washed it will feel softer and more moist. Now is the time to apply the Nioxin Scalp Treatment. It comes in a spray bottle as well as foam. Both work by adding an additional dose of hair-healthy nutrients to the scalp and roots. The scalp treatment also works to prevent the buildup of toxins and DHT during the day. One note of caution when applying the Nioxin Scalp Treatment; it can turn your scalp red for 10 to 20 minutes.
