- Q
How do you know if you need Thickening Spray, Thickening Gel, or Bodifying Foam? They all claim to do the same thing. Which is best for chin-length, curly, fine, thin hair?
- Asked by Annie217
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageThe main difference is how they are applied, and your preference for use will determine the best choice for you. Those with curly hair usually lean towards the mousse.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Do you have to use a heat protectant spray with this thickening spray before blow drying? Or there is no need for heat protectant?
- Asked by Meesh
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageYou do not need to use a heat protectant before blow drying your hair. if you plan to use other hot tools, such as a straightener or curling iron you may wish to add the heat protectant. The 3D Styling Thickening spray does not have added protection from heat.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
Does this product leave your hair stiff and crunchy? I want something that doesn't leave my hair stiff and hard to comb through!
- Asked by Joylene
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageIf you use a lot of this product it can make the hair stiff. However, when the correct amount is used followed by the use of a blow-dryer you hair shouldn't be crunchy. Another option would be the Nioxin Bodifying foam.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
I have fine, naturally wavy hair. I need a product that will give my hair body but provide texture (instead of making my hair soft) so that I can scrunch and dry my hair curly. I, occasionally, dry my hair out smooth, too. Would this product be good? Can I use the product by itself, or do I have to do the 3-step system?
- Asked by Angela
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageYou may just use a styling product without the system kit, that is fine. This product may be exactly what you are looking for. Give it a try risk free. By saving your receipt you have a 60-day money back guarantee.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Does this product detangle and/or protect against thermal heat? Also, I use the 3 step system #2. So, is it overkill to also use this product, diamax, and night density rescue treatment? Is so which ones should I choose for my straight, flat, thinning, fine hair? If it's not overkill what order should I use these products in?
- Asked by megan1227
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageThe 3D styling Thickening Spray will not detangle the hair, but will protect against heat damage. On days you shampoo apply the scalp and hair treatment followed by the Diamox and then use the 3D styling spray. You may use the night density at night. If you shampoo in the evening apply the scalp and hair treatment followed by the night density rescue. we do not recommend introducing this many new products to your regimen all at once. However if you have been using them go right ahead. If some are new start with one at a time giving at least a week to find out how the new addition makes you hair feel. This way if you do not like a product you know which one to eliminate. Please call Nioxin Technical support at 800-935-5273 for additional information and product recommendations.Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
I have straight, lifeless hair and it's thinning from chemo and meds. Would this work for me and how much do you spray on when you use it?
- Asked by Rebecca
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageThank you for reaching out. We are sorry to hear about what you are going through and wish you the best. The Thickening Spray adds texture , body and lift- recommended for clients wanting thicker, fuller styles. It is meant to boost the roots after applying on clean damp hair. Blow-dry to receive volume. This may work for you if you have enough hair to achieve volume. If not you may want to look into Nioxin Diamax which increases the diameter of each hair stand making it look and feel like you have hundreds of extra hair strands, while strengthening you r hair and protecting against breakage. Please call Nioxin Technical support at 800-935-5273 for additional information and product recommendations. Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can you spray this on dry hair instead of damp, and then proceed to blowdry for volume?
- Asked by the hair
- Official Answer By Nioxin - Brand EngageYou will get better results when applied to damp hair, but you can apply to dry hair and then blow dry. Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
What's the difference between this and the diamax serum? Would using both be overkill because they do the same thing, or suggested because they complement each other?
- Asked by YL
- Verified Reply - Wella, Sebastian, NioxinThe Thickening spray is used to enhance the hair when blowdrying. It is great for adding both volume and texture to the hair. The Thickening Spray has hold and the Diamax does not. The Diamax is used when you are trying to thicken each hair strand. I would suggest if you are looking to strenghthen your hair you use the diamax. You can use both if you wanted, but I would only suggeset that if you want a hold and to treat the hair.Was this answer helpful to you

This product makes the hair more sticky and the scalp is visible. I did not like this product at all. I am sharing my own opinion. Please please do not waste your money. It makes the hair more sticky and the scalp is visible
A Must Have For Thin Hair!
I was a little skeptical when I ordered this because I really didn't think it would work as good as everyone says. To my surprise, it left my hair looking, fuller, bouncy, and shiny, I couldn't stop touching my hair all day! The only downside is the spray bottle stopped pumping, after only a few uses so thank goodness I had an extra spray bottle that I was able to pour it into, I hope the new bottle isn't defective. But this product is a game changer! My hair is so shiny too! When you blow dry, your hair blow dry it in the opposite direction for an even fuller effect!
Does nothing
It might be more than water and fragrance in the bottle but I'm not sure. It does nothing, like absolutely nothing.
Love this stuff!

I love this stuff! I have oily hair and pretty much every product makes it fall flat and oily. I spray this all over my hair and blow dry or air dry and my hair feels thicker (I am using the Nioxin shampoo and conditioner number 4 too.) If I blow dry my hair feels really thick but is a little frizzy on the ends with this product in. I don't think it would be great for dry hair since it balances/dries my oily hair. I like this much better than the scalp treatment mousse from Nioxin.
I would buy again!
