HOW-TO STEPS

  • 1

    Before beginning, be sure to cleanse your client’s hair using a Nioxin 3-Part System. You will be layering one product at a time onto towel-dried hair. This allows you to focus on certain areas that might have varying amounts of texture and require a different product solution to achieve the desired end result.

    Begin by applying Diamax to the root area around the entire head. Comb the product through the midshaft and ends using a wide-tooth comb. Diamax with hair thickening extra fusion helps to increase the thickness of each existing hair strand for a fuller-looking head of hair.
