NIOXIN System 3 Scalp + Hair Shampoo for Color-Treated, Light Thinning | 16.9 fl oz, Niacinamide & Biotin

Nioxin System 3 Scalp + Hair Shampoo is a color-safe cleanser formulated to refresh dry, chemically treated hair and scalp while helping hair appear thicker and fuller. Nioxin System 3 is the first step in a salon-developed three-part regimen created for naturally fine, color-treated hair that is showing light thinning. This professional-grade shampoo combines vitamins, amino acids and hydrating botanicals to remove follicle-clogging residues and restore moisture balance without stripping color. It’s designed to prepare the scalp and hair for follow-up conditioner and topical treatments to optimize texture and manageability.
