Does System 2 contain any minoxidil?

I really don't know. I am expecting an order on Monday. I'll try to let you know. All I know is, it seems to work for me. Everything I have doesn't show the ingredients.

It does not. You may want to verify on their website though. I think it has worked a bit for me, I have thinning hairline and it seems that it has thickened a bit.

Absolutely. Minoxidil is a transdermal treatment that's absorbed into your scalp, while Toppik products are cosmetic. There's no interaction between them. (Where the heck do you get 15% minoxidil??)

To the best of my knowledge, it doesn't contain any. They sell a creatine product separately.

No it contains the active ingredients that are known to promote hair growth.

It's 5% minoxidil, which historically has been marketed for men. There are 5% minoxidil products for women, but I think they're only once a day, rather than twice a day like this. There's a Lipogaine for Women that includes 2% minoxidil. Besides that, I don't know if there's a difference in the ingredients. From what I saw, the women's product includes the proprietary DHT blocking blend too.

If you are at all concerned about thinning I urge you to use the whole kit. My hairdresser has seen the difference in my hair since I started using the product. I have tried other systems that did not include the minoxidil and did not see any results so I was very skeptical when I tried this product but I see the proof every day. Yes you can just use the shampoo and conditioner but you probably won't see new hair growth without the minoxidil.

Each system is labelled for a certain type of hair. Either you have coloring or not. And either thinning or noticably thinning. I have noticably thinning hair without any coloring - so I use System 2. Check out the Nioxin website for more info.

No, it does not have minoxil listed as an ingredient. It is just a thickener that you put on the root area of your hair befoer styling. I love it! I have fine, thin hair and I wear it short. This product makes it easier to style and holds the style all day.

Kernique's active ingredient is minoxidil. Don't pay the Kernique outrageous price. Go to your favorite discount retailer, buy the generic for minoxidil, you'll get the same results

the difference is system 2 is for natural hair: and system 4 is for colored or chemically treated hair..i was loosing hair not just (looking thin),it has a mint feel when you start and you're scalp get better it goes away,then you start to see new grow..it really works..try a small size before getting a big size..oh, i just use shampoo ( cleanser and cond. and i think it lightens you a little or it just looks better) i hope i answered you're ???

I thought it did, but don't see it listed in the box . Not under the supplements. Not unless it's called something else.

I use system 3 (fine, thining hair). In my experience, YES the formula changed when Nioxin was sold and moved to Mexico.Most ingredience are the same, but not listed in the same order. (%of each is different). I didn't know this until I was looking to see why my hair was falling again. I bought all I could find "made in Georgia".

Purchased this products for my much younger looking Mother who is actually 92 and still cares about how she looks and particular about her hair and YES it is true that you need to maintain it by continuing to purchase this products just like minoxidil. Prefers this to liquid drops to massage into scalp.
