How do I use the Nioxin Color Lock?
You use the Nioxin colour lock mousse directly in the salon, right after rinsing out the colour. Here’s how it works:
- Rinse out the colour thoroughly.
- Distribute a generous amount of mousse evenly through wet hair.
- Massage the product well from roots to ends.
- Leave on for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Rinse out thoroughly afterwards.
- Follow with shampoo and conditioner as usual.
Combine the Nioxin Color Lock treatment with the System 1 Light Thinning Shampoo for a complete care routine. This shampoo is specially formulated for fine and thinning hair, helping your hair look fuller and stronger at home after the salon treatment.
Why does the Nioxin colour lock mousse work so well?
Right after colouring, the hair cuticles are still open. The Nioxin 3D Expert - Color Lock - 150ml seals them so colour pigments don’t wash out on the first wash. Your hair feels softer afterwards and is easier to comb. This is partly due to panthenol, which hydrates and strengthens the hair fibre from within. Polyquaternium-7 forms a thin protective layer around each hair strand, reducing static and frizz. Together, they ensure your hair breaks less easily when combing and washing. The light mousse form makes the product suitable for fine hair that quickly becomes flat with richer creams. A smart choice if you really want to protect your colour. Check out the full Nioxin collection for additional products.
Does the Nioxin 3D Expert - Color Lock - 150ml really help against hair breakage?
Yes. The formula aims to reduce hair breakage during washing by up to 50%. It does this by smoothing the hair cuticles and forming a protective layer around the hair. This makes combing or brushing easier without breaking strands. It is not a hair growth product, but it visibly strengthens and protects your hair immediately after colouring.
Can the Nioxin Color Lock also be used at home?
The product is developed as a salon step, but you can also use it at home after a DIY colour. The usage instructions are clear: apply on wet hair immediately after rinsing out the colour, leave on for 3 to 5 minutes, then rinse out. Want to know the best way to use Nioxin Color Lock at home? Simply follow the same steps as in the salon. You’ll still need shampoo and conditioner afterwards, as Color Lock doesn’t replace these steps.
Is the Nioxin Color Lock treatment suitable for a sensitive scalp?
The product contains fragrance and linalool. If you have a sensitive scalp or react to fragrances, this product may not be suitable for you. It also contains parabens as preservatives. If you don’t experience issues, you can use it normally. It rinses out, so it doesn’t stay on your scalp.
Who is the Nioxin Color Lock best for?
The Nioxin 3D Expert - Color Lock - 150ml is best suited if you colour your hair regularly and notice the colour fading fast or your hair feels more fragile after colouring. Especially if you have fine or thinning hair, the light mousse is a better choice than heavy colour masks that flatten your hair.
If you have heavily bleached or chemically treated hair that really needs structural repair, products with bond-builders offer intensive repair from within. Want a complete care system after colouring? Then combine the Color Lock with the Anti-Breakage Strengthening Intense Conditioning Mask for extra strength and hydration at home.
