I find that follicle booster pretty much does the same thing as rogaine does, but at less of a price. For people who think this product will magically make your hair grow, here is a reality check.

Follicle booster does not regrow hair! It does, however, stop your hair from falling out. So if you are like me who still has hair growing, but loses hair faster than it grows, this may help you have a fuller set of hair. But, if your hair is not longer growing at all, then you would just use it as a preventive measure.

My scalp only turned red the first time I used it. It was more of a burning feeling than a tingly one. Ever since, I have not had a problem. The application is a bit messy, because it is in a gel format. If your are not careful, it will run into your face. I suggest keeping a damp cloth nearby to wash off any of the follicle booster that may drop into your face or forehead.

Overall, this is a great product and I will definitely use it again.

I have been using Nioxin cleanser and conditioner for about 15 years. I have been very happy with those products. However my hair was slowly thinning and a larger than a quarter sized chunk was gone from the front, a thinning line down the middle and almost nothing on the very top the size of a three inch circle. I tried Costco's brand of Minoxidil for a few years with no change observed. One of Amazon's daily deals was Nioxin's Follicle Booster and I thought I might as well give it a shot. I just put a dab on and rub it over the thinning area at night before I go to bed. I noted thickening within a week. I have used up one bottle now. The missing hair on my hairline is now hardly noticeable and the thinning stripe is looks pretty regular now. The part on the top may to too far gone... but who knows? I am only heading into my second bottle. My order today of another bottle is my testimony that it is certainly worth the money to me.Nioxin Intensive Therapy Follicle Booster, 3.4-Ounce BottleNioxin Follicle Booster (1 oz)Nioxin Instensive Therapy Follicle Booster 3.4oz (2 PACK!)Nioxin Intensive Therapy Follicle Booster for All Hair TypesNioxin Follicle Booster 1 oz.Nioxin Follicle BoosterNioxin Follicle Booster 1oz

After 1.5 years of use, seems to be stopping the hairloss. I don't think I've had new growth...at least non noticeable.

I have been using this product for more than five years now and I have to agree with the reviewer (Richard K. Tate "U2 Fan") that the follicle booster doesn't grow new hair but will prevent hair loss. You should make a point to use it with the nioxin cleanser and scalp therapy for the best results. Additionally, use the follicle booster at least once a day if you want to see results. I believe that if women were to use this product the right way we would see less balding over time(especially in the crown area.) My hair is absolutely thicker from my use. I refuse to use any other product. Although the Nioxin products are costly, they do deliver. Use these products the right way and over time you will hold on to your hair.

My hair sadly from abuse started thinning in the middle, watched a youtube video where it was highly recommended, bought it. Not one regret. It is light, doesn't drip, and so easy to follow. I'm happy with the results, will continue to use this product

I am a 31 year old female that is experiencing some noticeable thinning to my front hair line and gradual thinning on the top of my head. I have been using this follicle booster along with the Nioxin 3 part system AND vitamins religiously for 6 months now. The only thing that I can say that it's done to my hair is dry it out. I have not seen any significant results and I actually feel as though my hair has thinned more then before I even started this regimen. I would be very mindful when trying these products. Buy only the starter kit or the smallest bottle and assess whether or not you see any kind of improvement at all before shoveling more money into these products. This may work for some, and if so, that is fantastic! However, I would be cautious of reviews you find online as they can be written by anyone (i.e. those associated with the brand). If by miracle, this product starts to actually do what it is advertised to do all of a sudden, I will gladly come back to revise this post, but for now I give it 1 star.

EDIT: DO NOT USE THIS STUFF!!! After discontinuing use of this product, approximately a month later, everywhere I had applied the product has thinned to a degree that is far worse then when I had ever started using this stuff. Perhaps, like Minoxidil, your hair develops a dependency on such a product. You can literally see a uniform line of thinned hair along my hairline where I had applied this product. Really, really regret using this stuff; the result of use is far worse then what I started with. Don't make the same mistake.

Great, but use twice daily like instructed. It won't "regrow" hair but you'll keep what you got and it will look thicker.

I have been using this for 6 weeks now, and while I know other reviewers have said it will not grow new hair, I can't help but notice a WHOLE bunch of new sprouts of hair exactly where I put this gel. I do use it twice a day, as directed, and when I first started using it, I noticed a slight burning and redness; however, I no longer get that anymore. I am convinced it works, and I will continue to use it. I also use the Nioxin SYSTEM 4 shampoo and conditioner (3 months now) and the Nioxin vitamins (2 months now). It definitely helps and I am getting lots of compliments on my hair recently. But be advised.....you MUST USE THE PRODUCTS EVERYDAY or your hair will go back to the way it was. Hope this helps others in the same situation!

I have been using Nixon for 6 yrs. I was having male pattern baldness following menopause. It took approx 18 mos for my regrowth to start taking shape. I think I would be a lady with very thin hair were it not for Nixon. I for one am very thankful. The follicle booster was responsible for regrowth along 2 areas of baldness . It does require repeated us. By the way I only use it ever other day and it stilled worked not as fast but I am pleased.

These products are NOT worth buying if you have an imbalance in your body. Please consult an endocrinologist before purchasing these products to make sure your levels are even.
