Great for thinner curly hair
Have thinner curly hair. Applied foam throughout damp clean hair and at first look like my locks where going to be thin. 30 minutes later hair got drier and scrunched it out to soft, shiny, fuller locks. Pleasant, light clean smell.
Most Helpful Critical Review
Just Okay
Seems to be high quality ingredients. The problem is it comes out too wet. After drying your hair this is not what you want. Need to re-formulate. A little over priced.

My New Favorite! Finally Found THE ONE!
Hair Type Straight Hair
I have finally found my new favorite and believe me, I have tried them ALL! I needed a hairspray that would hold by side swept bangs out of my face/eyes. I was looking for a strong hold but flexible. Most hairsprays that claim to have a strong but flexible hold will not hold my hair in place, but THIS ONE DOES! Doesn't leave my hair crunchy nor yucky, just absolutely gorgeous with the hold that I prefer. The smell is so great! I am so happy to find this.
Replaced Kenra Volume Spray 25
Since Kenra ruined their award winning hairspray, I've been on the hunt for a replacement. I've tried every hairspray available and finally landed on Nioxin. This is a very good hairspray. Similar to Kenra in hold, creating volume, not weighing down my hair. If you're also looking for a replacement for Kenra 25, I highly recommend.
I would like to continue buying this product

- Q
My son doesn't want to start nioxin but may want to use this as a styling product. Will this affect his hair follicles and require a full commitment to the nioxin line as if he started treatment?
- Asked by Concerned
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageNo, this is just a normal styling product. This will not affect the amount of hair that grows, it will just make his current hair style appear thicker while the product is in the hair.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Why has Regular hold been discontinued? The strong hold is too heavy and breaks hair. Regular is light, flexible great to work with and doesn't break the hair. Regular is the best especially for fine hair. Strong hold doesn't even keep the curl. It just weights the hair down
- Asked by Wondering why
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageEither the product did not sell well enough or there were issues obtaining the ingredients for the regular hold. We are sorry you are disappointed. You might like Sebastian Shaper or Shaper Plus as an alternative.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
What are there parabens in the ingredients?
- Asked by Sondra45
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageThat would be proprietary information. What we can tell yo is this. Parabens are ingredients known as preservatives that protect products against the growth of bacteria, fungi and yeast. Parabens are widely used in virtually all product categories. Parabens derived from para-hydroxybenzoic acid. Alternatively, PHBA which occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables. Parabens have been safely used in products for over 100-years. The parabens used in cosmetics are identical to those found in nature. Your body quickly changes parabens to natural PHBA and eliminates them. Parabens are permitted for use by government agencies across the globe. The parabens currently used as preservatives in some Nioxin products are methylparaben or propylparaben. You will not find isoparaben in ANY NIOXIN product. The product development process taken by Nioxin is: *We only make a product that is safe for both the end-consumer and the hairdresser *We only make a claim if it is proven true *We will support those products with education to grow the enterprise in thinning hair *We will design and recommend services that will grow the salon business *We will be vigilant, continuing to monitor our products and scientific information to ensure and continue to be the best for you and the Nioxin user Was this answer helpful to you

The formula changed a long time ago so I stopped using it. Does anyone remember the scent of Nixion hair spray from the late 90's to the early 2000's? It was a completely different scent, not minty. Smelled heavenly to me. More like cologne but not too heavy. Definitely good hairspray it worked great but the scent was 90% of my reason for buying it. Will Nixion ever bring that scent back or use it in another product?
