Hey y'all!!! I went to the BSS today and the lady there told me that there is a new product from Nioxin that actually Thickens your hair strands permanently. I wonder if any of you have tried it already. Here's the link for it: http://nioxin.com/en-US/products/product-page.aspx?id=6309#

I would love something like this, but I sincerely doubt thickness can come in a bottle.

I looked up the ingredients and found them here: http://m.ulta.com/mt/www.ulta.com//...Id=xlsImpprod4450423&un_jtt_v_tab=ingredients

Maybe the effect comes from the caffeines decrease of shedding?

permanently?!?!?! This would be a miracle in a bottle. Lol thicket strands would mean less less splits for fine hair. Youve got my attention but im skeptical it would work.

I wish that were true, wonder how long it would take? If I see a bottle in Ross I will try it.

I just read something like this on hairlicious, where she spoke about Panthenol (vitamin b5) which is an excellent, all natural hair thickener that bonds to hair strands and creates great thickness. Often times, it is added to high-end hair products for some oomph.

Puritan's Pride also sells a panthenol hair thickener that I want to try: http://www.puritan.com/health-beaut...ner-_-002300&gclid=CN7ixM65l7MCFQu0nQodTBYA1w

I'll be trying it out this week, it's bogo at $7.99, can't beat that.

Anyway, the Nioxin stuff looks pretty good, but it seems to me that they're taking panthenol and just wrapping it in a prettier more expensive package to sell it. I think it will work well, but I think that we should also be aware that the thickening ingredient is panthenol....which you can find cheaper

When it comes to this stuff I'm somewhat of an investigator

I believe in Panthenol because I have a conditioning rinse (made and sold locally) that has Panthenol in it. When I use it my hair feels stronger, thicker, but not dry like protein.

I'm not too sure about this product.. Either you have thick strands or you don't, I always thought it is something in your dna or body chemistry, like you can not purchase a product to do that.. I have thick strands b/c my father but my mom has thin strands and she has tried all types of products and nothing worked. Now my strands have thinned out but it was after I had my dd two years ago that things changed internally with my hormones.

Let me know how this product work for you ladies..
