Nioxin
Nioxin is the world's number-one salon brand for thicker, fuller-looking hair. Backed by over 35 years of research into thinning hair and scalp health, Nioxin's derma-technology targets the three key signs of thinning - hair density, hair diameter and scalp condition -so every strand looks and feels stronger from root to tip.
Whether you're noticing the early signs of thinning, experiencing increased hair fall, or looking to protect ageing hair against volume loss, Nioxin offers a targeted system to suit your specific concern and hair type.
Nioxin Hair Fall Defence
For those experiencing noticeable hair fall due to breakage, Nioxin's Hair Fall Defence range is specifically designed to reduce hair loss caused by everyday styling and environmental damage. The range strengthens hair from the inside out, reinforcing the hair fibre to resist breakage while improving resilience and thickness over time. It's an ideal choice if you're seeing more hair in the shower drain or on your brush than usual and want a proactive, salon-grade solution to help keep more hair on your head.
Nioxin Age Defence
Hair changes as we age - it can become finer, drier and less dense. Nioxin's Age Defence range addresses these concerns directly, targeting the loss of volume and vitality that comes with ageing hair. The range works to restore body and fullness while supporting scalp health, helping hair look and feel thicker, more vibrant and more youthful. If your hair doesn't feel as full or strong as it once did, Age Defence offers a targeted approach to reclaiming volume and shine.
The Nioxin 3-Part System
At the core of Nioxin's approach is its 3-Part System — a daily regime of cleanser shampoo, scalp therapy conditioner and scalp and hair treatment. Available in numbered systems tailored to different hair types and levels of thinning, the trio works together to cleanse, optimise and treat the scalp environment, creating the ideal conditions for thicker, denser-looking hair. Each system is formulated to remove sebum, fatty acids and environmental residue from the scalp while delivering lightweight conditioning that won't weigh fine or thinning hair down.
System 1 is designed for natural (non-colour-treated) hair with light thinning — ideal if you're just starting to notice your hair looks or feels a little thinner than it used to.
System 2 is also for natural hair but targets more progressed thinning, delivering a stronger level of scalp and hair treatment for noticeable density loss.
System 3 suits colour-treated hair with light thinning, offering the same scalp-optimising benefits while being gentle enough to protect your colour.
System 4 is for colour-treated hair with progressed thinning, providing the most intensive support for hair that is both chemically processed and significantly thinner.
Scalp Recovery, Styling and Treatments
Beyond its core systems, Nioxin also offers a Scalp Recovery range for those dealing with dry, itchy or flaky scalps - formulated to soothe irritation and rebalance the scalp environment so hair can grow in healthier conditions. The brand's lineup also includes professional styling and treatment products designed specifically for fine and thinning hair, from volumising mousses and thickening sprays to intensive leave-in treatments that boost density and protect against heat damage without adding weight.
How to Choose the Right Nioxin System
Once you've identified your system, consider whether you have an additional concern that goes beyond general thinning. If breakage-related hair fall is your main issue, the Hair Fall Defence range can be used alongside or in place of your regular system to strengthen hair and reduce daily shedding. For age-related thinning and loss of volume, the Age Defence range delivers targeted support for mature hair that needs extra density and nourishment.
