Just Nutritive Hair Loss Conditioner

This system is amazing. I have thinning hair due to PCOS and a severe hormonal imbalance, with very high DHEA. I have tried everything. Nioxin only dried out my hair and damaged it, Avalon was worse (it was like an industrial strength degreaser that stripped my hair and damaged it in only a few uses!). Pura d'Or was the same way. I was afraid nothing would work for my hair. I bought this system out of desperation to find something that could slow down my hair loss. Not only did this system help with that, it also gave my hair incredible texture and a new life! It went from an almost hay-like texture after using Avalon, to a silky texture with weight and body, but not weighed down like I expected. I absolutely adore and recommend this to anyone and I will continue to buy this system, even if it is a bit more than other products, because I wholeheartedly believe in it. The shampoo emulsifies incredibly well. I only use half a pump. I've used it twice a day (that's best for removing and blocking the DHT and 5-alpha reductase that causes hairloss) and I'm only about a 1/4 way through the bottle! It's incredibly long-lasting for a smallish bottle. I've never used a product of this quality before. The conditioner I recommend getting an extra bottle of. Where I only use 1/2 a pump of the shampoo, I like 2 pumps of the conditioner on my short hair because it seems to soak right into the hair and scalp. The ingredients of both are stellar for blocking DHT, and promoting hair growth. The treatment oil is a really good addition for night use. I highly recommend leaving something on your scalp overnight that can assist in blocking the DHT that causes hair loss. I found the scent of the products to be very nice. It's rather herby and I find it comforting. If your hair is thinning, check out my other reviews of things that have helped me. In particular, the high frequency generator I bought for $20. It has been a miracle that has made this system work even better. If you only have money for one or the other, get the high frequency generator. It helped my skin tighten, made my bulging veins sink back down, and has reduced hair fall out by 1/10 in only a few uses! It so far surpassed my expectations that I can't believe it's only $20. I hope it works as well for you. It's been a godsend for me! Also, if you have PCOS or high testosterone, do research on licorice root and peony tea. I have been drinking 6 bags of Stash's Licorice Spice tea for only two months and it reduced my excess testosterone by an extraordinary amount. I went from 155 to 51 in just two months with no drugs. That has helped my hair come back quite a bit. Also, D-chiro Inositol is amazing. I've read it's a natural form of metformin without the side effects. It helped lower my DHEA and balance my hormones. I can't tolerate the drugs they want me to take, so finding out this information has been a huge blessing that I hope helps others. . . . UPDATE: 10/1/14 I am now down to using this once a day and my hair sheds a normal amount. I am actually not even through half my bottle of shampoo yet! I can't understand how a bottle of this size can last this long. I'm nearly to the halfway point now. This product has been definitely worth the price. I'd pay much more for it. You need to shake the shampoo. I thought it was lower, but then saw that water was sitting on top. I shook it and realized I had more than half a bottle left. Apparently it can separate.

THE SMELL: In my opinion, it does not smell bad. But, it is definitely not the flowery/fruity/perfumed smell that we are accustomed to in a shampoo. The ingredients are all essential oils, so it smells like the oils that are used to make it. It has a very herbal/earthy scent, almost like rosemary and olive oil combined. It's not a bad smell, but I can see how people wouldn't want their hair to smell like it. I use Aveda styling products after I shower, which are stronger than the shampoo smell so my hair usually smells good. THE SHAMPOO: I used the shampoo by itself for two days to get a feel for it. With the first wash, my hair felt thicker (the strands themselves felt thicker, I did not notice a difference in the thinning that quickly). But, as others have said, it did leave my hair feeling more coarse and dry, so I did not like the texture of it. That changed when I started using the conditioner. THE CONDITIONER: I believe it is essential to use the shampoo and conditioner together for this product (or at least some type of conditioner). I did not like the texture of my hair with only using the shampoo, but the conditioner counteracted that. Now my hair is soft and shiny. It only takes a tiny bit of conditioner to go a long way. THE HAIR LOSS: Since I just started using the products a week ago, I don't have much to report by way of hair loss. I will update this review once I hit the 3 month mark to see how it does. It does appear to me as if I have less hair falling out in the shower, but I don't have enough evidence yet to back that up. It absolutely does make the hair feel thicker and fuller, though so when I am styling it, it feels like there's more hair, even though I do still have the bald spots.

First of all, I placed my order on a Saturday evening and it qualified for free shipping. I was expecting my order in the usual 5-9 business days; but when I got home from work the next Wednesday (just 5 days later) my order was waiting for me. It was packaged nicely and everything was in good condition when it arrived. I ordered the shampoo and the conditioner and they came together; each one with it's own pump dispenser that you could put on the bottle. The conditioner has a patchouli scent, so be prepared if you are sensitive to things that smell like a hippie. I personally like it; but my husband says it's a little overwhelming. I don't think it is. You can definitely smell the patchouli; but it's not too strong. I have thin hair (duh) that is a little bit past my shoulders and I use 2 pumps. One pump wasn't quite enough. The conditioner also rinses out very cleanly. No greasy or waxy feeling residue left over. I think it's what clean, healthy hair should feel like. I don't have any medical condition that causes my thin hair, I think that my hair is just wimpy. It breaks easily and a lot falls out when I wash and brush it. When it gets longer, like it is now, it takes a lot of work to make it look pretty. I have been using the shampoo and conditioner for about 2 weeks. I'm not sure that I have less hair fall; but I will say that my hair looks so much healthier. It does appear to be thicker, fuller, and have more body. I have tried almost every drug store brand of volumizing shampoo and conditioner (pantene, loreal, clairol) and they seem to work by taking all of the moisture out of your hair. That causes your fly-aways to look very obvious and just makes your hair feel like straw. This doesn't do that. My hair feels moisturized without feeling greasy and still looks fuller without all of my fly-aways sticking up all over the place. My scalp is so much healthier now as well. I used to get a lot of clogged pores on my scalp; but since I started using this shampoo and conditioner that stopped almost immediately. So the jury is still out as far as stopping hair fall; but I would buy this again just for how much healthier my hair and scalp feel and look.

I got this conditioner to try to regrow some of my hair at my hairline that has started receding. I have used this for about a month, I’m not sure if I see any new growth yet, but it is still early on. I will say though that when my hair drys, my curls are curlier and my hair is nice and soft. I’ve used it on my sons hair as well, he has much coarser feeling hair than mine and it made his soft too, I was actually able to run my hands through his curls without getting caught in little coarse knots. The smell is pleasant and while it is a bit pricey I don’t mind paying it because it is chemical free and I like how my hair has responded to the conditioner. Again I can’t speak to the hair growth, I will give an update in a few months.

After a bad breakup with the love of my life, it seemed stress and anxiety overtook much of my inner being, and with that came the thinning of hair all over my head, which in turn only made me more stressed, and more anxiety ridden. So I looked for help in this matter and refused to try rogaine. I don't have balding in my family, but it seemed it became a part of my anyway. Ain't love grand? And while this product was good, nicely natural, didn't overly dry out my scalp, it didn't do anything for hair loss. So if you want something to replace your REGULAR shampoo and conditioner, this product line will not disappoint. But don't expect it to help with anything that it is claiming on the label. I tried a dandruff option as well, and that also did nothing save for smell nice and not have any negative affects.
