A cleansing shampoo for natural hair with visible thinning
Nioxin System 2 Shampoo is a scalp-cleansing shampoo for natural, untreated hair with progressed thinning. It is step one of the Nioxin System 2 routine and helps remove sebum, dead skin and build-up that can clog the follicle area. Niacinamide, biotin and panthenol sit alongside salicylic acid and mint oils, leaving the scalp clean and the hair looking thicker. This is the large 1L size for regular use.
How it works
A liquid shampoo that foams well and rinses cleanly, with a fresh mint scent. Work it into the scalp with your fingertips.
Who it suits
- Natural, uncoloured hair that looks thin
- Progressed thinning with a visible scalp
- Scalps that feel oily or coated by build-up
- Households or salons that use the routine often
Worth knowing before you buy: This shampoo is sulfate-based and contains parabens and fragrance, and the mint oils can tingle. If your hair is coloured, look at the System 4 range instead.
