Must Read

P&G Salon Professional has introduced Nioxin, a unique brand which claims to reverse the effects of thinning and promises thicker and fuller looking hair. Now for the first time, men and women in India will also be able to experience Nioxin advanced products. Nioxin has coined a new definition for hair thinning based on scientific, stylist and consumer insights which is thinning hair – a condition that indicates poor scalp, fewer hair strands and finer hair strands.
Inspired innovation
A close look at hair biology reveals three areas that can impact hair appearance and condition. Scalp and hair environment called Derma, hair growth cycles called Density and the change of hair structure over time called Diameter. Nioxin has approached the formulation of its products by linking the three components of thinning hair to these factors and then formulated real science-based solutions with its three therapies: Derma renew service or facial for scalp: Cleansing hair and scalp to remove sebum and residues.Density protect: Conditioning and protecting hair to help reduce hair loss due to breakage. Density repair: By thickening each hair strand.
Dr Jaishree Sharad, Dermat Nioxin Panel, Celebrity Cosmetic Dermatologist and CEO of Skinfiniti Aesthetic Skin & Laser Clinic, Mumbai, India and the Vice president of the Cosmetic Dermatology Society of India (CDSI) since 2010 shares other important aspects of the product. She adds, “Our scalp is an extension of facial skin and Nioxin has come up with this advance hair care approach similar to skin care. The three-part system comprises of a cleanser, scalp therapy and treatment which are formulated with custom-tailored technologies and ingredients that address each of the areas of hair biology in different combinations. The results are truly customised answers that help men and women effectively to achieve thicker and fuller-looking, thriving hair.”
Stan Newton, P&G Salon Professional Creative Director further explains, “Nioxin has the power of P&G scientists from across the world, giving it access to P&G’s newest,powerful technologies for its formulations.Today the leading salon professional brand specialising in thinning hair is expanding its reach. We want to enable men and women to regain their confi dence and sense of control over hair thinning, no matter how much hair they have.
