Hi,

Has anyone used the Nioxin or Bosley hair systems? Do they work? Is one better than the other?

Coromega is Fish Oil. It comes in individual gel packs. After surgery you probably won't be able to take the huge Fish Oil capsules, so Coromega is the way to go.

Here's a link to their site; http://www.coromega.com/

You can get this at GNC.

My hair was on the thin side before surgery, and at about 3-4 months it starting coming out really fast. I lost more hair than I thought I had. At about 5 months I went to a dermatologist and they gave me cortisone shots in my head and a topical solution. It did help almost right away to slow the loss. It's been about 6-8 weeks, and you can see lots of hair coming in where they did the injections along the part, so I think it does help.

I use both the bosley and the nioxin, but I like the bosley better. I have the same stuff you showed in your pic. I think it does a better job of volumizing for me. I also use the bosley fibers. They are the same color as my hair, and do a great job of hiding my shiny scalp. They really do make the difference in how my hair looks.

What is that xfusion you show in the pic? What's it do, and where do you get it?

Thanks!

Do you know what the topical solution was? I have to go to the derm in the next few weeks for eczema and while I'm there I may as well bring up hair loss

I started using Nioxin about a year after my twins were born b/c my hair had been thinning right up front in the center since 4-5 months post-partum with them. When it didn't start coming in on its own again I got nervous!

I just use the shampoo and conditioner, and I do feel like it worked for me. My hair stopped clogging the drain after a few weeks on it. After finishing the giant liter bottles, I though I was OK to move on to something else. But again, my hair started clogging the drain when not using it. I think I may have to buy it for life!!

I like the minty scent of it, at least of the system 3 that I use. Also, I pay around $35-$40 for a liter duo set when buying through Amazon. DO NOT buy through a salon!!

I also recommended it to my brother who was greatly thinning and he swears it has helped him too.

Oh, I have used Bosley. Matter of fact, I am still using Bosley’s products. Right now, I am 3 months in with their “Professional Strength for Women” found here: http://www.bosley.com/store/bosley_complex_for_women.php . My hair dresser actually recommended it, she has another client battling the same thing I am, thinning hair. Now, don’t get me wrong, the process isn’t an overnight success, there are multiple steps, but I am definitely seeing results. My better half, knowing my plight, has even commented on my hair. He has been extremely supportive and helped me do a ton of research before hand, he isn’t going to just tell me it is working for the sake of working as he too is monetarily invested in this as well.

I am also taking some vitamins: A, C & E, as well as BIOTIN(fancy name for Vitamin H).

I am going to give it another month or so and will share some before and after shots.
