The Nioxin System 1 Cleanser has gone against the ever-growing trend of all-purpose, panacea-type, 2-in-1 anti-anything shampoos and concentrates instead on one particular objective and one specific hair type. That’s refreshingly unambiguous for a shampoo brand, and it’s certainly one of this product’s finer points.

To be more precise, the Nioxin System 1 Cleanser is designed to transform fine, thinning hair into a thicker, healthier mane. Just how effective it is in doing so will be discussed at length in this product review.
Nioxin System 1 Cleanser

Nioxin System 1 Cleanser

The Nioxin System 1 Cleanser is not only the best and gentlest shampoo available for fine, natural, non-chemically altered hair in the early stages of thinning. It’s also a hair loss product in every sense of the term. To clarify, it’s a DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) blocker that’s formulated to hamper the production of the number one culprit to hair loss and also gently removes and cleanses scalp grime and environmental residue like a normal shampoo.

(If you would like to purchase, visit HairEnergizer.com buy clicking on this link – Nioxin System 1 Cleanser)

The System 1 Cleanser works both ways when it comes to strengthening and thickening thinning hair; that is, it nourishes and thickens the individual strands themselves via its unique BioAMP technology from inside the cuticle to outside the hair shaft as well as blocks off excess DHT male hormones that actually keep nutrients from reaching your hair. In addition, you’ll also get the extra bonus of flexibility and natural shine through System 1’s Actv-Renewal ingredient.

While it certainly has all the usual formulations and fancy marketing bylines when it comes to promoting its alleged benefits, one has to wonder whether or not the shampoo’s “Actv-Renewal ingredient” and “BioAMP technology” are sufficient enough to get the job of making thinning or dying hair fuller, thicker, and healthier.

Thankfully, despite the company’s cliché manner of advertising its wares, the shampoo does work. It also lathers quite well and does everything a shampoo is supposed to do with the added caveat of encouraging hair liveliness.

Whether you’re a young adult who’s worried about a thinning scalp line, a young girl who’s embarrassed to see that, yes, hair loss does happen to women, or a middle-aged man suffering from the onset of both a mid-life crisis and male pattern baldness, this is a great product to use, or at least to test out. Be warned though that advanced thinning and hair loss isn’t covered by the Nioxin System 1 Cleanser—that’s what System 2 and System 3 are for.

Here’s the lowdown on Nioxin System 1 Cleanser: It’s the best product you can ever get in order to prevent or stave off hair thinning and loss before or during its onset. Furthermore, it’s a great way to maintain full and bouncy hair without worrying about shedding like a mutt or hair fragility.

Even though its results may vary from person to person, quite a lot of customers can vouch for this product’s aptitude. Plus, it’s also reasonably priced. Ergo, it more than deserves its 9.25 out of 10 stars rating.The Nioxin System 1 Cleanser has gone against the ever-growing trend of all-purpose,... more

Shampoo for Dense, Coarse or Thick Hair

Two years ago my wife and I were fortunate (blessed) to adopt a 5-year-old boy from Guatemala. He always has a smile on his face, is inquisitive, humble, smart and has the thickest, densest hair of anyone I’ve ever met.

No kidding - his hair is jet black, stands straight-up and as thick as a carpet. Whenever he is in the sun, his head absorbs heat like asphalt on an August day and the sweat starts falling, even when the temperature is rather mild. It is coarse and stiff, and we have experimented with all sorts of shampoos to keep his scalp moisturized and follicles somewhat soft and manageable - what we needed was a shampoo for dense, coarse and thick hair.

Needless to say, we have several hispanic friends - mainly from Central and South America - and many of the “hispanics” we know have similar challenges, whether they’re from Mexico, Guatemala or Venezuela. And the issue we hear repeatedly is how to maintain and manage hair that is so coarse and thick.

Here is what we have found. First, maintaining moisture is paramount and the two best products we found for that are those with emu oil or LusterPlex. LusterPlex, interestingly, was developed by Croda (a personal products research and ingredient company) to increase flexibility, shine and smoothness of coarse or thick hair. It has become a top active ingredient for use in African American hair products for its’ properties for increasing sheen and reducing breaking.

Shampoos and conditioners with this ingredient work great for hispanic hair (latino, latina) too - I can attest. Though density hasn’t changed (and I hope it doesn’t for a long time), his hair is much softer and smoother - and doesn’t have that “velcro” feel. It still gets hot - as a recent trip to the pool proved, but the feel of brittleness is gone and it doesn’t seem to get as dirty as it once did.

The other ingredient I mentioned was emu oil. Emu oil is great for moisturizing the scalp and works very well in shampoos and conditioners. It is a very popular ingredient for African American shampoos and for anyone who deals with breakage or coarseness. It is a great moisturizer - reducing dryness and poor hydration - and works well for those whose locks are thin…it adds body, softness and life.Two years ago my wife and I were fortunate (blessed) to adopt a 5-year-old boy from... more

Adding Services for Increased Spa Traffic

Increasing revenue and traffic for spas and MedSpas can be done several ways. One, open new locations, increase marketing efforts, or adding new services or products.

For many spas, opening new stores or locations may be part of a long-range growth plan, yet may not be suitable while operating in a down economy when spa treatments are viewed as either a luxury or discretionary.

Marketing efforts can be categorized as advertising or direct sales. Advertising can come in many forms. Direct mail, email campaigns, joint marketin efforts with related products or services, TV or radio. Many spas I have seen are flying banners outside their locations (local laws permitting), putting up billboards, and putting advertisements or discount inserts in papers, local news, press releases, or handing out discount or “specials” to customers and guests coming through the spa.

Increasing marketing efforts or expanding services is your best ROI when the economy has slowed. Massage Therapy, Botox or anti-wrinkle procedures, facials, and vein therapy can be supplemented with several ideas.

Another opportunity is making available additional services or products inside the store.

Selling in-expensive consumable products can help boost sales, improve traffic, and get consumers coming back. Spider vein creams can be excellent ancillary products following sclerotherapy or laser therapy. For pregnant women or those who have had children, a preventive or repairing stretch mark cream can help aid recovery and prevent scarring. And while injections can help smooth wrinkles and puff lips, anti wrinkle creams and serums help neck wrinkles, crow’s feet, and puffiness or dark circles under the eyes.

These products are designed to supplement and enhance procedures and improve weekly or monthly revenue. Choosing products that are expensive with luxurious packaging and “rock star” name brands may work against you. While they may certainly enhance the image of your spa (and to many that is important), high-priced skin care products have been shown to be great initial purchases, but lack the consumable “punch” needed for return purchases.Increasing revenue and traffic for spas and MedSpas can be done several ways.

Centrix QZone Hair Dryer

There’s not a lot than can be said about hair dryers, really. A person can say with confidence that once you’ve seen one hair dryer, you’ve seen them all, so the cheaper a dryer is, the better. They aren’t very sophisticated devices either. If you have an electric fan, its highest setting could probably do a passable job of drying, so there’s nothing really noteworthy that can be said about blow drying appliances in general.

This pervasive notion is the reason why the Centrix QZone Hair Dryer is such a hard sell even from the very start. But, what it IS is Quiet and uses advanced technology to reduce or eliminate frizz and fly-away!
Centrix Q Zone Hair Dryer

Centrix Q Zone Hair Dryer

Granted, despite the general public’s view of all styling appliances being generic and disposable, there have been a lot of technological innovations to this 50-year-old wonder (in fact, traditional dryers have long ago become obsolete), such that you now have a choice between nano-silver, tourmaline, ionic, and ceramic (incidentally, Centrix QZone is ceramic) types.

Nevertheless, is Centrix QZone Quiet Hair Dryer’s sole claim to fame—being quiet compared to the loud and brash hair dryers people are familiar with—really that necessary?

People are by now used to hair dryers being loud the same way they’re used to moth balls having a strange scent or bleach wearing out the fabric of clothes. It’s just the way things are, there’s no particular need to change things.

Fortunately, quietness isn’t the only thing that it has going for it. For one thing, because it’s ceramic, it doesn’t produce cold spots and dries evenly and quietly at the same time.

Add that to the fact that it has a powerful blow drying engine, and you’ll soon realize that it literally cuts your drying time in half compared to conventional dryers. It’s the fact that it’s quiet, powerful, and fast that makes it truly outshine most other products available in the market.

Furthermore, even though it’s not tourmaline-based, the Centrix QZone is ionic as well, which means it stops your style from looking frizzy after drying via the reduction of positively charged particles or ions.

Furthermore, this type of combination ceramic and ionic technology is actually the type of appliance that professional hair salons use. The added bonus of it being energy efficient just emphasizes the fact that it’s levels above the unsophisticated, noisy, and damaging tools of yesteryear.

As mentioned before, there’s not a lot than can be said about hair dryers. The same cannot be said of the Centrix QZone because it represents the next evolution of styling appliances.

It has benefited from all the advances to drying technology in one sleek package, so it’s unfortunate but understandable that it costs an arm and a leg to buy. If you can afford it, it’s highly recommended. If you don’t care for all of the above features (and since they’re just fringe benefits, truth be told), stick to getting a cheap, conventional blow dryer. It gets 9.53 out of 10 stars.There’s not a lot than can be said about hair dryers, really. A person can say... more
