What is the best technique for massaging this into the scalp? I'm not sure if I am doing it correctly. Thanks.

Using the tips of your fingers rather than a flat hand. This way your finger tips will be touching your scalp rather than just your hair. What you should do is as soon as you step in to the shower get your hair wet and apply the shampoo to any and all areas affected by the thinning. Then using your finger tips (tripod fashion not claws fashion) massage the shampoo in for a moment and then just let the shampoo sit on your scalp and continue your shower. Once you are ready to end your shower, then you can use your hands to rub your entire scalp so as to spread the shampoo everywhere else on your scalp even the parts that are not thinning and then go ahead and rinse off. This way all parts of your scalp gets washed but just the thinning parts get the full treatment to insure best results.

Wet hair, pour quarter size amount in one hand and use fingers to apply and then massage in hair. Use more for more hair.

A little goes a long way. Start off with no more than a half dollar size for the entire head if your hair is thick, quarter size if you have fine to medium hair. Massage it thru with your fingers, comb or brush for even distribution. I personally don't feel it is greasy afterwards...really it soaks right in. I have used at least 10-15 different natural oils on my hair, so I speak from experience. As always you have to experiment a little before you know how much for sure. It's great as a hot oil treatment too!

Hi Cassia,I normally use the pantene spray after a thickening gel product by Marc Anthony. So I use the gel from root to tip and after five minutes I spray on the pantene and rub into my scalp. But I really see the best results on the second day (I wash my hair every second day) and it seems to volumise al lot better on the second day when i'm not using too many other products.

The rinse out one with keratin . Use a small amount on the ends then put the rest on your hair light ly not scalp! Rinse really well after washing your face. I have all kinds of new hair growth! I think it's well worth the money!

In my opinion you can use the comb to get to those underneath places where the cap would only get the top of the scalp. Especially me who has lost hair on the sides and I can use the comb to not only stimulate the scalp but bathe it with laser. So far I love it. It is easy to use and store.

Did you try this on your head? I am considering this or the black version of this. My barber used it to bald my head after a close trim and this was pretty quick and clean for the most part, I still got a few bumps here and there, mostly back of my head but I think it should be OK with a prep and aftershave cream follow up?

Just fill the dropper with the liquid, squeeze it on the scalp while massaging gently and concentrate more on the area in which you lose your hair. Hope this helps!

must reach the scalp of the thin hair so it can work . I some times rub it in a little after I spray or drop , they both work . I stared with drops now use spray . when I spray I part my hair then spray . After it dries I do come out .

I use my regular styling products and my curling iron, etc. I normally put a small amount of Nioxin conditioner on the top of my head, rub in and then I use my regular conditioner on the ends, I do have longer hair, so it helps to de tangle and give it a smooth silky feel.

What I have done with this treatment is massage this in to my scalp real good and give it about 20 - 30 min so in can absorb well, then use your blow dryer on cool. This is what I do and I have had no problems. Granted everyones hair is different so I sugguest experimenting a little. I love this product. Hope this helps.

Hhhmmm. Not sure, Alex. This product is more for those with oily scalp issues. Not sure you have that problem. Maybe you just need a haircut, a different hairstyle or a relaxer type product. Good luck!

You can do it in place of your conditioner, as a deep conditioner, or you can do it there after. I use Wen (the fig line), and then I put this on my head after rinsing out the Wen, and put on a plastic cap for a deep condition. I receive excellent results every time.

Hi Shirl, sorry to hear about your results. I've been using this relaxer for years. I have no complaints and won't use any other relaxer!!! Can you share a little more about what you did after you applied the relaxer? How long did you leave it in? Did you use the "Sustenance" conditioner after rinsing the relaxer out? And followed with the "Normalizing Shampoo"? I would give it another try and maybe allow a stylist to do it for you. I also use it as a texturizer on my husband and it curls up after I'm done. I hope this helped!

I haven't had to need to use it that way. This ointment has a strong odor that's hard to describe, but the odor goes away eventually. It's an ointment that's kinda greasy and waterproof. I don't think you'd want to use it on your scalp. There is a tea tree shampoo that would probably work much better for you.

I get the Equate Walmart brand which is just as good and quite a bit cheaper. I pour it into the cap (I don't use the foam) and part my hair in small sections and apply it with a small cotton ball. Just dip it in and dab it on. If you have the foam I would just put it in the cap and put it on with your fingers. Either way, don't forget to wash your hands! I have a great deal of itching with it and find that if I wash my hair often it isn't as bad (I have long hair). I also apply it at night. I wash my hair every fourth day probably. Hope this helps. I do want to add that this stuff works like a charm! I've been using it around 5 months and am thrilled with the hair growth. I also use Head and Shoulders Full and Strong and Aveeno Nourish plus dandruff control because they both have pyrithione zinc which my doc told me to use. They aren't medicinal at all.

I part my hair where it is thin and spray it on the scalp lightly in a couple spots and rub it in. I repeat to put it where hair is thin,then dry and style my hair. Occasionally I'll do same the next day when hair is dry but not usually.
