Lisa Snowdon loves this hair serum that's 'must have for hair loss' now 20% off

Stress, hormonal changes, postpartum recovery, diet or simply wearing tight hair styles can all lead to us experiencing some sort of hair loss and thinning, regardless of age. While its something 50% of women will experience this in their life, a relatively normal amount to shed is between 50 to 100 hairs per day.

But for those for whom hair loss is a little more than this, showcased in more hair in hairbrush, parting become wider and more bald spots, this byproduct can often leave a person lacking in confidence.

One brand that has received a lot of love for its anti-hair loss products, including model and Celebrity Masterchef star Lisa Snowdon - who's been open about her own hair loss journey - is NIOXIN. It's currently running a promotion to mark Hair Loss Awareness month that sees 20% knocked off the price of some of its best-sellers on Lookfantastic.

One product included in this deal is the 4.7 star rated Anti-Hair Loss Serum Hair Growth Serum for Thinning Hair, which usually retails at £57.50 but is now £46.

The NIOXIN Anti-Hair Loss Serum Hair Growth Serum for Thinning Hair is a leave-in serum that has been designed to minimise the risk of breakage and hair fall out. Lookfantastic shares that beauty fans who have used this product have experienced 'crazy' results in as little as eight weeks, with 93% of participants in a clinical study experiencing improved hair anchorage.

The serum - which is recommended to be used alongside the brand's shampoo and conditioner - is enriched with hair follicle stimulating caffeine, lauric acid and niacinamide. As well as SANDALORE™, which helps improve hair anchorage, the formula works to nourish and protect the scalp in order to promote optimal conditions for healthy-looking hair growth.

Claiming to delivering stronger, thicker hair from the first use, the serum requires 15 pumps to the scalp (or dry or wet hair) which are to massaged in - and not washed out.

This NIOXIN product rivals the likes of brands such as UKLASH and Skin + Me, whose hair regrowth products have received rave reviews from beauty buffs and celebrities alike. UKLASH's Hair Growth Serum costs a little less at £40 for a one time purchase and uses active ingredients like AnaGain™(Pea Sprout Extract), Phytic Acid and Turmeric to 'revitalise and stimulate hair growth' at the scalp. It also uses Lemon Fruit Water to condition and protect the hair follicle.

Skin + Me's The Drops for hair growth are an even more affordable option as they're currently on sale for £14.99 down from £34.99. With major results reported in three to six months with consistent use, the Skin + Me formula claims to 'reverse loss', 'stop thinning' and 'restore density' with its scientifically proven active ingredients.

The NIOXIN serum - which Lisa Snowdon has said is a 'game changer' for thinning hair - has delivered 'visible' results from shoppers, with one five star review raving on the Lookfantastic website: "I’ve been using Nioxin Anti-Hair Loss Serum for a few weeks, and I’m pretty impressed. The serum is easy to apply just pump once on your palm and spread. It doesn’t feel greasy or heavy on my scalp.

"I’ve noticed a slight improvement in the thickness of my hair, I have little baldness on my side head and it seems to be growing back in that area where it was thinning. It doesn’t have a strong smell, which I like.

"While it’s still early to tell if it’ll completely stop hair loss, I’ve definitely seen some positive changes, and I feel more confident about my hair’s health. Definitely worth trying it."

The serum has received strong reviews, with one shopper remarking: "I have been using the Nioxin Anti-Hair Loss Serum Growth Serum for thinning hair for a few months now, and I am genuinely impressed with the results. Initially, I was sceptical about trying another product for hair thinning, but this serum has exceeded my expectations." They added: "Over time, my hair has begun to feel thicker, and I’m even noticing some regrowth in areas that were visibly thinning. I also appreciate that the serum has a pleasant, subtle scent, unlike many other treatments I’ve tried.

"It’s now a staple in my hair care routine, and I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with thinning hair or looking to improve their scalp health. Nioxin has truly delivered with this product, and I feel much more confident about my hair than I have in years!"

"I've been using this for about 8 months now and the amount of hair that I shed now in comparison to before is crazy," said another. "It really does help with my excess shedding and also my hairline is looking a bit fuller in the patches that were thinning I think consistency is key with this."

Someone else noted how they saw results in as little as one week and said: "The best hair grow serum for hair! I could see results after for weeks of using it. You have to be consistent with the product but it’s working well. Great value. Highly recommend"

While many people did see some results, some have struggled, with one person saying: "Have used it few times, not seen any difference yet, will persevere for longer, isn’t making my hair any worse so will just keep going for a while yet."

Someone else noted on the Nioxin serum: "Very great product! Since I began using this system my hair loss has slowed down considerably. When using the shampoo with the conditioner and the serum, it has certainly contributed to the health and thickness of my hair."
