What is the difference between Nioxin System 4 Kit and Advanced Nioxin Sytem 4 Kit?

I am not sure if there is a noticeable difference between the two, but I can say there is a noticable difference between using the products and not. I currently only use the shampoo and conditioner but my hair is noticeably thicker, I had very thin sides, and was thinning from the top - and that is now a thing of the past. I can pull my hair back without feeling nervous.. I hope this helps you, I write on very few products...but I can never go without saying something positive about this one.

I use system 3 (fine, thining hair). In my experience, YES the formula changed when Nioxin was sold and moved to Mexico.Most ingredience are the same, but not listed in the same order. (%of each is different). I didn't know this until I was looking to see why my hair was falling again. I bought all I could find "made in Georgia".

I like the advance better. The smell and the strength of the cleaner is better. I will order the advanced stain one from now on.

I don't know. I read the info on both and no differences were indicated. Made me wonder if it was different suppliers.

I'm not sure either, but I just looked at my bottles of Nioxin which have the number 5 on them. It mentions they are for "medium to coarse hair" and also "Normal to Thin-looking" hair. Looks like they counteract each other. Our hair doesn't seem to fit what these bottles say. When we ordered them, we didn't know there were so many different formulas. I guess we should have done a little research before we bought them. Hope this helps a little. Marilyn

XLN is ultra low NOX, LN is low NOX. Not a performance difference as far as I'm aware, only emissions controls.

R-0014 uses a SMALLER vial to test for pH, while R-0004 uses a LARGER vial. R-0014 comes in smaller RESIDENTIAL kit (K-1004) while the R-0014 comes in larger more COMPLETE HIGH kit (K-2005). Each kit uses a different volume of water to test pH, therefore concentrations in the bottles are not the same and thus are NOT INTERCHANGEABLE.

foam...but just so you know, i (personally) didnt and don't see any improvement, let alone changes, with the texture/density of my hair with Nioxin system 2. It still look and feel the same way as it was prior to using system 2.

I've tried both, and I don't like Advanced. The Advanced strips don't open my nasal passages nearly as much, and didn't seem to stay on as well. The Extra strip are strong and hold longer. I tried the Advanced once and never went back.

System 2 is for thinning hair that is NOT chemically treated (i.e., hair color, or perm) and System 4 is for thinning hair that IS chemically treated.

I do not know what is the difference between the two. Maybe one is a older verison (AQ-4000)? Hopefully, someone else can answer the question for you and me. ;-)

It looks like the other bottle has Potassium Alum - KAl(SO4)2, while this "pink" stick has Ammonium Alum - (NH4)Al(SO4)2. From what I've read ammonium alum stings more and is more harsh, but I haven't tried it.

I used the 3 products in the starter kit and had fairly good results. I have alopecia and it flairs up once in a while.Also my hair is thick so the areas don't show. I am 71 and keep Nioxin onhand. I've used it for years;

YES- System 3 as well as system 4 are for " treated" hair, this includes relaxed and/or hair that is colored. the below link is very helpfulhttp://apt8h.com/nioxin-system-1-vs-system-2-compared/

I am not sure of the exact differences between these 2 kits but I can say that I purchased the Marinco kit to replace a damaged connector on my travel trailer and this kit was high quality and very complete. I was extreamly satisfied with this product.
