Have you ever started looking through pictures on your phone or computer and suddenly stumble across one of yourself and think… WHOA… do I really look like that!? I had that same thought recently when looking through some photos and I immediately noticed my hair was thinning! I love doing my hair and makeup and spend a good amount of time each day in front of the mirror… so why didn’t I notice? I have been so insecure and self conscious since that day, constantly trying to find hairstyles that will hopefully cover the obvious thinning hair. I am going to be brave for a minute and share that photo with you…

Can you see it? Let’s zoom in and get a closer look!

And there it is… that awful thinning/receding hair line that has been haunting me since I looked at this photo. This isn’t something women deal with, you only see products for men and their thinning hair. What is a young women to do when she starts experiencing hair thinning? Well thankfully there is a simple way for finding the perfect solution for your hair concerns. No special doctors or strange powders or wigs to apply to your head!

Thinning hair is a sensitive issue for many women, I personally had a hard time just bringing it up to my husband and I tell him everything! My goal today is to be completely open and honest with you so that you can feel inspired to find a solution to your hair thinning issues. There is no reason to feel embarrassed or ashamed, I promise this is an issue that many women face… you are not alone! Thinning hair affects women of all ages and the cause is often genetic, and can also be triggered by certain life stages. Addressing thinning hair starts with understanding what causes and contributes to it, and the early warning signs to look out for. Whether it be nutrition and diet, stress and trauma, health issues, medication, environmental factors, or postpartum… figuring it out is key.

Night Density Rescue Treatment

NIOXIN Night Density Rescue provides a solution to oxidative damage on the scalp surface, caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that in attempt to become more stable, steal electrons from other molecules which results in oxidative damage on the scalp surface, ultimately leading to thinning hair. The powerful antioxidants found in NIOXYDINE24 technology target and neutralize free radicals, minimizing damage. The treatment is designed to be applied at night when the body’s natural repair and cell regeneration functions are stronger. Scientific research also confirms that oxidative damage is lower during the night because the body has less exposure to both intrinsic and extrinsic factors such as stress and environment pollutants, which provides the ideal opportunity for regeneration and repair.

Bodifying Foam

This styling approach will better help individuals with thinning hair understand what products to use to achieve and maintain the thicker, fuller hair styles they desire. The redesigned line is consistent with NIOXIN’s overall approach to caring for thinning hair through addressing three aspects of hair thinning – Derma (scalp environment), Hair Density and Hair Diameter. This approach allows consumers to better tailor their hair regimen by selecting stylers that can meet their individual needs of thinning. Whether to create thicker, fuller-looking styles or maintain flexibility, there is a 3D Styling solution that meets any need.

Now that you have viewed all of the products that I was provided to help with my particular hair issues, I would like to share the results of my 30 day challenge. NIOXIN is encouraging consumers to take a 30 Day Challenge to thicker, fuller hair. Each of the six System Kits includes an easy to use daily regimen consisting of three steps, to help nourish the scalp and give you thicker, denser-looking hair, in 30 Days, guaranteed. I have to admit as a mother of three it felt so nice doing something for myself… something that was going to make me feel more confident. Plus I was able to do this right at home, as finding time to go to a hair salon is quite difficult. The routine was very simple and it quickly fit right into my life. I noticed a difference a little over a week into my routine… I was no longer finding handfulls of hair when I washed my hair. Overall my hair just seemed much healthier, which in turn resulted in fuller hair and the thinning was significantly less noticeable!

I feel so much more confident because I am no longer trying to find ways to style my hair so that it covers the areas that are thinning. I am also no longer limited on how how I can style my hair, which is really important to me because I use to love trying new hair styles. This challenge has allowed me (despite being an exhausted mother to three littles) gain back my confidence and feel good about my hair.

If you are expereincing some sort of hair loss or thinning… I encourage you to Take the NIOXIN 30 Day Challenge and share your results with #NIOXINChallenge on NIOXIN’s Facebook and Twitter.
