How does poor Hygiene contribute to Hair Loss?
If
a clean scalp is not maintained sweat and excess sebum will clog the
hair follicles.
What is the major cause of Hair Loss in men and women?
Research
has proven that Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the major cause of hair
loss.
What is D.H.T.?
Dihydrotestosterone
is the resulting product of direct contact between the enzyme
5-alpha-reductase found in the skin and the scalp with the hormone
testosterone. Dihydrotestosterone binds to receptors sites on the scalp
and hair follicles and interrupts and interacts with the normal chain of
events involved in continual hair growth.
How does D.H.T. Cause Hair Loss?
D.H.T.
takes over the receptor cell (the cells on the hair follicle that bind
to DHT) and sends false signals to the functioning cells responsible for
proper hair growth.
How does Nisim
Stimulating Extract help hair growth?
Organic
enzymes and essential amino acids in the extract help feed and nourish
weak and thinning hair. The herbal actives reduce the amount of DHT.
Do men and Women lose hair in the same
pattern?
No. Men usually lose hair first in
the temporal area, second in the crown and third in the vertex or top of
the scalp. This is due to the concentration of sweat glands that carry
DHT in these areas. Women on the other hand generally thin in a diffuse
manner.
Will the hair regrow in the same pattern?
No.
Any regrowth will occur in the opposite manner of the hair loss. In
other words the hair that is lost last will be the first to regrow.

The
deep cleansing scalp shampoo removes unwanted oils, sweat, dirt and
excess sebum, as well as neutralizing surface DHT. The stimulating
extracts penetrate further into the scalp to neutralize DHT in the scalp
thereby creating a healthy scalp environment needed for hair growth.
How often should the Stimulating Extract
be applied?
It should be applied 2-3 times
daily. Make sure to massage the extract into the scalp - DO NOT RUB.
Massaging is done by applying the fingertips to the scalp and applying
pressure then moving the scalp without sliding the fingertips across the
scalp.
Is it necessary to use one of the Nisim
Conditioners to see results?
No, it is not
necessary but we do recommend that the Nisim conditioners be used with the shampoo and stimulating extracts to ensure
that there are no neutralizing or other side effects to the actives in
the shampoo or extract.
Is it Necessary to use all of the products
for life?
No. The stimulating extract should
be used until the desired results have been achieved, typically within
18 - 24 months. Suspending use of the hair stimulating extract will not
cause hair loss to resume. In order to maintain existing hair, it is
necessary to continue use of the shampoo.

once per day but wash, rinse and then wash and rinse again (in the same
shower).

childbirth or menopause?

to bring the excessive hair loss under control. The stimulating extract
will help to restore the lost hair.
Are Nisim

promoting an accelerated rate of regrowth for similar quality hair as

How does the Nisim
product line differ from competitive products?

control excessive hair loss within a week.
The product line is the
most effective on the market, with a clinically proven success rate of
85.7%.

efficacy of the product and it's mode of action (how and why it works).

to neutralize DHT on the scalp.
What is the difference between the Gel and
the Original formula Extract?
Both formulas
of the extract work equally as well. Both formulas can be used on any
hair type, however it is suggested that the Original formula be used on
more oily hair and scalps. The Gel formula which has been reduced in
alcohol content is best for people with drier hair and scalps. The Gel
formula is a little easier to apply and also has some styling
properties.
How much shampoo do I need to use?
The
amount you need to use will be different for each person. The factors
effecting this are water hardness, condition of hair/scalp (Oily or Dry)
and the length of hair. However the shampoo is very concentrated so
you should need to use less shampoo than you normally need. For you
second wash you will need even less than the first.
Is it safe to
use Nisim with other hair loss treatments like minoxidil or propecia?
Although
we have not conducted any studies to confirm this we have never had a
report of any adverse effects resulting from using Nisim with other
products. Having said that, combining products can result in adverse
effects it can also alter the effectiveness of one or both of the
products. If you notice any discomfort while using Nisim with any other
product discontinue the use of one or both of them immeadiatly.
Should I leave the extract on or
wash it off?
The extract is meant to be left
on the scalp it should not cause any discomfort or styling issues.
Some people will choose the gel formula as it does have some styling
properties while others prefer the original which can be applied to the
hair with out anyone noticing it is there. You can wash your hair once
the extract has been massaged in and dried.
Can I use these
products if I am pregnant or nursing?
There
have not been any tests done to confirm or deny this. Our products have
all been tested and are safe to use. It is however strongly
recommended that you do not use any products that you dont need to use
during pregnancy or while you are nursing. It would be best to consult
with your doctor for advise regarding the use of any product during
pregnancy.
I dont wash my hair every day, will your products still work?
Our
clinical testing was done based on daily usage with a wash rinse and
repeat cylce and using the extract 2 times per day. It is Very Strongly suggested that you follow this
procedure. If you are unable to use the products daily for whatever
reason use them as often as you can. Many people have reported getting
good results with less frequent you. Many have also reported to us that
they didnt get results using less frequently and then did start to see
results when they used the product as directed.
If the shampoo
works for me will the extract work for me for sure?
Generally
speaking the shampoo works for more people than the extract does.
While it cant be said that just because the shampoo works the extract
will work for you. Almost without exception the extract will not work
if the shampoo didnt first get the hair loss under control.
How long do I
have to wait before I can apply the extract a second time?
While
most people choose to apply the extract in the morning and again at
night, you can apply it any time. You should just make sure that you
allow the extract to completely dry before applying a second
application.
