It is What It Is!!! And that is a GREAT SHAMPOO!
By Donna on Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2012
I have used Nioxin Cleanser, System 1 (which is for fine/Untreated/Normal to Thin hair). My hair is "untreated". I have always had baby fine hair. Also, my hair is on the oily side and anything will make it bog down and oily. This product does not make my hair do either of these two things. With my hair being untreated, I have always relied on "product" and Velcro rollers for uplift (I am very careful about taking the Velcro rollers out of my hair due to breakage). Unfortunately as a lot of women get older their hair gets thinner. I happen to fall into that category. Also I WAS having problems with it breaking off. I discovered this shampoo about six years ago. I used it steady for about three years. My hair quit breaking off and it looked and felt SO much healthier. I stopped using it for a few months thinking..."I will just buy OTC shampoo for a while". BIG MISTAKE!!!.... The next trip to my hairdresser she said that my hair was breaking off. She even asked if I was doing something different to my hair. I told her that I had stopped using my regular shampoo and I proceeded to tell her the name of it. She started raving about how good of a product it was. So I came home and ordered another bottle. I always order the 33.8 ounce and it lasts me for months. I mean like 6 months. And all you have to use is a dime size. I also am a everyday shampoo'er. Although I do not find that this is by no means a product that promises to make hair thicker... It does help with the over all problems for what it says... "Fine/untreated/normal to Thin hair"... I only have tried the Shampoo. I have not tried the other products that you can use with it... which is why the word "system" is in the name.....BUT! I am going to try in the near future. And when I do I will give an update on my review. Also, this shampoo has a peppermint / menthol feel to it on your scalp (only while you are soaped up. Not after you rinse). It also has a very pleasant smell. So bottom line...It is what it is and that is a GREAT SHAMPOO!!! UPDATE... they changed the formula it now makes my head itch. Just as well buy OTC shampoo for the same effect. Very Very sad because I have been using this product for years.

Product ingredients changed from last purchase
By Daveo on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2012
Nioxin Cleanser, System 1 (Fine/Untreated/Normal to Thin-Looking), 33.8 Ounce This expensive shampoo has been highly recommended for men and women with thinning hair. It was recommended to me at age 35 when my hair was thinning and now at age 70 I have a thick head of hair (Rogaine may have helped also). My female friend was also advised to use this product when she was going through chemo. It is expensive, compared to traditional shampoos. I paid $30 for a 33.8 oz bottle recently. But it's worth it if it helps to regrow thinning hair. However I now suspect the product I just purchased will not be effective to regrow thinning hair. At first I noticed the new product, unlike the old, made NO MENTION of its ability to remove Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the testosterone-based cause of baldness. Next I noticed that the new product said simply: apply, rinse then add other Noxin products. The old product advised that the medicinal shampoo should remain on the scalp for at least ONE MINUTE before rinsing. This got me thinking that the new formulation lacked the DHT removing ingredients that would require remaining on the scalp for at least one minute. Next I noticed that the ingredients were DIFFERENT, despite no notification from the manufacturer that this would occur. And then I observed that the new product was distributed by Wella Haircare in CA and was made in Mexico; the former product was made by Nioxin Laboratories in Atlanta in the USA. A bit of research revealed the basis for all these anomalies: Nioxin Research Labs were purchased in 2008 by Proctor and Gamble. Two years later, P&G closed the research lab, headquarters and factory in Atlanta and moved manufacturing to Mexico. Nioxin's /P&G's website says that it's effective for thinning hair. This is the niche that it bought when it purchased Nioxin. It justifies charging $30 for Nioxin when P&G's Head and Shoulders sells for $3.50. With all these changes by P&G, I question whether Nioxin today is the effective product of yesterday or a new commercial fraud.
