Nioxin Vitamins Challenge

[Avin'sMom2010]

I bought the 90 day supply....I'm starting on month 2, my hair is looking and feeling healthier I am natural so it's not really showing the length...when I conditioner wash it's starting to feel heavier ....I cut my text. hair off in Sept 05 down to 2 inches it is now about 6 inches when stretched...my staple products are MTG, Proclaim Activator, Surge/Infusium/911 leave-in/Aussie leave-in Mixture.
BTW MY NAILS ARE GROWING LIKE CRAZY TOO, they are getting THICK!!! so the NIOXIN is a keeper for me!!!!

Nioxin is a keeper for me. Not only for the condition of my hair but it has been great for my skin.

 

[MzOptimistic]

I have been using the vitamins for 5 weeks and it along with my other vitamins is growing my hair fast...I am currently 2 days away from having 7 weeks of newgrowth and my newgrowth looks like I have 10 weeks of newgrowth....I never went past 9 weeks post retouch but this newgrowth is coming in fast and thick like never before....the vitamins I take with these pills are:

2 evening primrose oil 1,000 mcg...will up the dosage to 2,000 soon.
1 b50 complex
2 biotin 2,000 mcg

Are you guys still doing this challenge? I would like to join and see what I can achieve by the end of the year

 

[ONAMSHN]

I just started taking these yesterday; I hope I can be consistent for 3 months so that I can tell if they work for me or not!

 

[Miss.Que]

I would like to join this challenge too. I have been taking Nioxin Vitamins for quite a while but not consistantly. This challenge should help me take 1 pill everyday for 3 months.

 

[ONAMSHN]

Would you ladies like to start today?? I really need to get on the ball!

 

[Nice & Wavy]

Well, I started this challenge (my first...yayyyyy) last week on the 8th. I've been taking 2 a day so, we will see what happens. I'll post at the end of 6 weeks which will be around the week ending November 18. So far, I noticed that my skin have a few breakouts, which I didn't have before at all. But, they are clearing up quick. I can handle that, though.

Hope others will respond too.

Majority of the ladies, myself included are taking 2 pills a day...some women reported that taking one pill was not really helping and when they doubled up they noticed faster growth....I have been taking these vitamins for almost 3 months along with other vitamins and my hair is softer, more manageable and most importantly it's growing faster...but taking two pills a day is helping me with the faster growth.JMHO

*edited* I went to look at my calendar and I have been taking nioxin for 11 weeks...it's said that after 3 months some ladies are getting 2 inches a month...well I can't wait to get past 3 months and see for myself...so far so good though.

 

[AtlantaJJ]

I will be taking 2 per day, I have 2 90 day supply bottles so that should give me some type or result. I will take the Biotin I have, figure it shouldn't hurt and definately the MSM. That's a keeper just because of all the benefits associated with it. I workout a lot and my joints feel GREAT!!! I might not re-up on the biotin when I run out, we shall see. I am also thinking of doing a super green product, but that's just fo general health, I don't feel like I'm getting in enough veggies.

We shall see, I'll take a before pick tonight! I'm excited.

 

[churchie]

I'm in. I've been taking one a day for about two weeks now, but I'll try two a day. One thing I can say is I've already noticed a great change in my fingernails- stronger and so white- especially since I wash my hands so often at work.

 

[lana]

Well I've been on this challenge and didn't even know it. I've been taking Nioxin for a few months now. BUT I am only on my second bottle (so I slacked off somewhere in there) anyways I'll start back up after seeing all of you guys getting results.

I was taking two a day for awhile, then I started getting an upset stomach so I went back to one a day. I may try two pills at different times during the day - because- yes I was taking two together at the same time. (laughs) That didn't work.

Well keep me posted. I'll check back!

Girl if you think they're great now, try using a body butter on your hands after washing. Wonderful for the winter!

Just wondering.... do any of the women that take two a day notice headaches?

 

[iCandyc]

Just wondering.... do any of the women that take two a day notice headaches?

I havnt noticed headaches.

 

[MzOptimistic]

I havnt noticed headaches.

I don't either

 

[Nice & Wavy]

Just wondering.... do any of the women that take two a day notice headaches?

No headaches...but I have noticed more breakouts...so, I came down to one a day instead of two. I've also now started taking Solaray Bamboo (Silicia) so, that should complement the Nioxin well.

 

[Dannygirl]

Umm.. ihavnt noticed any differinces yet

 

[MzOptimistic]

Umm.. ihavnt noticed any differinces yet

How long have you been taking the vitamins?

 

[Dannygirl]

Umm.. about month now ... i know my hair growing though could be the other vittimans though

Dannygirl when you say you don't notice a difference do you mean as far as hair growth or were you talking about the headaches? Because if you are talking about hair growth..it takes about 3 months to really see results for some ladies but after 3 months it's on...your hair takes off...I have been using them for 3 months and some change and my hair is definitely growing...I am 4 weeks post and have alot of newgrowth whereas before taking nioxin... I didn't start seeing ng until I was like 6 weeks post....hang in there and take them faithfully and you WILL see results.

I was curious about that.

 

[lana]

Okay my stomach was hurting for a different reason. I'm back up to two a day. I separate them out instead of taking them together, drink lots of water and yes my hair is definetely growing.

 

[LaNecia]

Just wondering.... do any of the women that take two a day notice headaches?

No headaches here either.

Still going strong with my 2 a day dosage.

 

[Aussie]

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm so what does the Nioxin Product line do? has anyone tried it. i read alot about the pills but what about the hair maintance products

 

[Luxlii]

I just purchased a thirty day supply. It does not seem to have the hair growth vitamins included.

 

[Blessed2bless]

I am interested in trying this... I'll have to read this thread....

 

[hillytmj]

I didn't vote in the poll because I haven't used them consecutively, but I did from March 2006 to March 2007 and I started again consistently in Aug. 2008.

They definitely helped promote growth in my experience.

 

[lana]

I may consider starting back up on Nioxin, but may I mention to the ladies who are new to this vitamin, that I didn't experience any growth or any change in my growth rate until after I stopped taking Nioxin. (lol) So like three months of taking the vitamin and nothing...then I stopped and got like extra growth and longer hair. I should have kept going at that point, but I'm happy with my liquid vitamins overall.

Best wishes for the challengers!

Oh and Yes, I took two pills once a day after a meal (at different times).

I noticed a difference in my fingernails within two weeks, so I assumed it was working for my skin and hair.

I agree with your point. It deffinitely took three or four months for the vitamins to kick in bring exra growth.
