People with a sensitive, dry or itchy scalp who still need a conditioner that softens and detangles their hair, without heavy, irritating formulas.

Suitable for all hair types, for women and men, and gentle enough for daily use. It is designed to follow Nioxin Scalp Relief Cleansing Shampoo and precede the Scalp Relief Soothing Serum.

If your scalp is sensitive, you may have learned to keep conditioner well away from the roots. Scalp Relief Scalp + Hair Conditioner turns that around: it is formulated to be massaged in from scalp to ends, so the skin gets the same soothing, moisture-restoring attention as the hair.

With aloe vera for hydration and vitamin E for antioxidant care, it calms itchiness while leaving hair soft, detangled and easier to style. Used between the Scalp Relief Cleansing Shampoo and Soothing Serum, it completes a regimen that Nioxin has clinically shown to strengthen the natural scalp barrier with regular use.

• After shampooing with Nioxin Scalp Relief Cleansing Shampoo, apply the conditioner to wet hair from the scalp to the ends.
• Leave on for 1 to 3 minutes.
• Rinse thoroughly.
• Finish with Nioxin Scalp Relief Soothing Serum applied to the roots. Do not rinse the serum.

For the barrier-strengthening results Nioxin reports, use the system at least four times a week.
