If You Struggle to Get Volume in Your Hair, You *Need* To Read This

You know that character from The Ring movie? The one with the straight, greasy black hair?

Yep, even her hair is more voluminous than my dead straight, super fine, Scandinavian hair.

I literally haven’t had a good hair day since I was born (I barely had any hahaha), and even when I do try to make an effort with my hair, by the time I get to the office, my bouncy curls are flat and my roots look and feel greasy.

In fact, I have to wash and blow dry my hair every single day to keep it fresh. I probably use a bottle of dry shampoo every week.

I’ve tried everything from cutting it shorter, to using every volume product on Earth. But I've FINALLY found the solution.

It's called Nioxin, and as far as Nioxin reviews go, mine is glowing.

Keep reading for everything you need to know about Nioxin shampoo and Nioxin System 2.

Side note, you can learn about different products to try for fine and/or thinning hair in our YouTube video below.

What is Nioxin?

Thanks to my new hairdresser, I was recently introduced to Nioxin.

If you're wondering, yes, I also associated this brand with balding middle-aged men, but that’s not the case at all.

I don’t have thinning hair (yet). I have fine hair and a decent amount of it, which causes my hair to be really flat, regardless of how I style it - until now.

The brand uses advanced technologies to deliver thicker, fuller, denser-looking hair. There are also six different Nioxin systems in the range, all designed to address different concerns:

  • Nioxin System 1 - For natural hair with light thinning.

  • Nioxin System 2 - For natural hair with progressed thinning.

  • Nioxin System 3 - For coloured hair with light thinning.

  • Nioxin System 4 - For coloured hair with progressed thinning.

  • Nioxin System 5 - For chemically-treated hair with light thinning.

  • Nioxin System 6 - For chemically-treated hair with progressed thinning.

My Nioxin Reviews.

I’ve only just learned to master my full on skincare routine, so when I realised I was also going to have a 6-step haircare routine as well, I wasn't thrilled.

However, that mindset quickly changed when I saw instant results which actually lasted.

I'm hooked on this stuff - and if you have fine or thinning hair, you will be too. Can we take a moment to appreciate my before and after?

These products have made my hair so much stronger, so much more voluminous and my hair actually holds a curl or wave for more than half an hour.

I'm down to washing my hair every second or third day and even then, my scalp doesn’t really feel greasy which is unreal.

My hair has been transformed from a 2D world to a 3D world and even my partner (who never says anything about my hair) noticed it. It also leaves your scalp with a cool, fresh minty feeling which I love.

Here's a recap of my favourite Nioxin products from the range.

This shampoo and conditioner plumps your hair and gives your scalp an effective but gentle cleanse. It also comes with a leave-in treatment which adds shine and fullness. This kit is for natural (or uncoloured) hair but there are other options for treated/coloured hair too.

Nioxin 3D Density Defend Lightweight Strengthening Foam

This product really helps with the breakage and protects from heat damage which is a must especially for thin, fine hair types. It's perfect for styling and the product I attribute to my curls lasting for days!

Nioxin 3D Density Defend Lightweight Strengthening Foam

If you have specific areas you are concerned about, like a receding hairline, or thinning hair on the side you sleep on, or a thinning crown area - you need this in your life. You can feel it stimulating your scalp as you use it.

Nioxin 3D Night Density Rescue

Last one, I promise! This nighttime leave-in treatment is very lightweight and won’t leave your hair feeling greasy at all, nor does it weigh down finer hair types like mine, and it definitely makes my hair feel thicker. It's essentially overnight rescue from a flat hair nightmare the next morning!
