Key Benefits
  • Thickens the hair — clinically designed to add thickness and fullness with visible results in just 30 days
  • Supports scalp health — removes impurities and excess sebum, creating a healthier environment for the scalp
  • Reduces hair thinning — helps minimise hair breakage, promoting the appearance of fuller, thicker hair
  • Colour-safe — gently cleanses without stripping colour vibrancy
Who It's For

Colour-treated, highlighted or dry, damaged hair with progressed, more noticeable thinning. For light thinning use System 3 Cleanser. For natural fine hair use System 2 Cleanser.

Note: Nioxin is a scalp health and hair thickening system — it does not contain minoxidil and is not a regrowth treatment. Results vary by individual and consistency of use. For significant hair loss consult a dermatologist or trichologist.

Key Ingredients
  • Wild Mint Oil — stimulates the scalp and promotes circulation
  • Peppermint Oil — assists in regulating sebum production and controlling oiliness
  • Salicylic Acid — removes dead skin cells, excess oil and product buildup from the scalp
  • Niacinamide, Biotin & Panthenol — nourish the hair root and strengthen strands
  • Antioxidant Botanicals — green tea, nettle, hops and citrus extracts protect and revitalise
  • Note: contains sulfates (Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) for a deep-cleansing lather
How to Use
  1. Wet hair, apply to scalp and gently massage evenly
  2. Rinse thoroughly
  3. Follow with System 4 Conditioner then System 4 Scalp Treatment
  4. Use the complete system at least 3 times a week for visible results in 30 days

You may notice a pleasant tingling sensation from the mint oils — this is normal and a sign the formula is working.
