Answers To Frequently Asked Questions

What is the major cause of hair loss in men and women?

Both men and women lose hair for similar reasons.

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 Dihydrotestosterone in these areas.

Women on the other hand generally thin in a diffuse manner.

Hair loss in men is often more dramatic, and follows a specific pattern of loss which has been termed "Male Pattern Baldness".

This loss is caused by Dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

DHT is the resulting product of direct contact between the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase found in the skin and scalp with the hormone testosterone.

DHT binds to receptor sites on the scalp and sends false signals to the functioning cells responsible for proper hair growth.

Nisim Shampoos and Stimulating Extracts have been clinically proven to safely and effectively neutralize both surface and dermal DHT.

Many of the hormonal changes women experience throughout their lives can result in hair loss. For example, some women lose hair after a pregnancy, during menopause or other hormonal imbalances.

Hormonal changes can cause hair loss by directly affecting the cells responsible for hair growth or by affecting the level of nutrients and blood flow to the follicle.

The hair follicle cannot maintain a healthy growth cycle without the proper nutrients. It may eventually fall out and die.

Other factors contributing to hair loss include:

  • Poor blood circulation: Studies have shown that the blood flow to the scalp of men and women suffering from hair loss was significantly lower than in those not experiencing hair loss.

  • Environmental pollutants: Further studies have indicated that pollutants in our atmosphere have contributed to the production of "environmental hormones" which can also contribute to hair loss.

  • Poor hygiene: If a clean scalp is not maintained sweat and excess sebum will clog the hair follicles.

How does Nisim NewHair Biofactors work?

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 reduce the amount of DHT.

Organic enzymes and essential amino acids help feed and nourish weak and thinning hair.

Is Nisim NewHair Biofactors safe?

Yes, the Nisim products have passed rigorous health and safety tests. All the actives in the formulas are herbal, organic ingredients.

There are NO harmful side effects.

Is NewHair Biofactors safe to use on colored, permed, or chemically treated hair?

Yes. It is necessary to follow all manufacturers' directions and procedures, allowing the proper amount of time between chemical treatment and shampoo/extract application.

Will the shampoo help control hair loss due to menopause or after childbirth?

Yes, the results to date are extremely positive in both cases.

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

Is NewHair Biofactors effective for Alopecia Areata sufferers?

Yes. Nisim products have been very effective in stimulating hair growth in the patchy areas caused by Alopecia Areata.

Is NewHair Biofactors effective for anyone undergoing chemotherapy treatments?

Although no study results are available, anecdotal results indicate very positive results in maintaining the hair for as long as possible and promoting an accelerated rate of regrowth for similar quality hair as was lost during chemotherapy treatment.

How does NewHair Biofactors differ from competitive products?

  • The shampoo can be used as a stand-alone product and is guaranteed to control excessive hair loss within one week.

  • The product line is the most effective in the market with a clinically proven success rate of 85.7%.

  • Nisim provides documentation as to the efficacy of the product and it's mode of action (how and why it works). Click here for a summary

Customer Feedback

Here are some comments posted by users of NewHair Biofactors at BizRate, the consumer review site and on Nisim's user forum:

"I absolutely LOVE the Nisim products! I was introduced to the shampoo and serum from our beautician, and have since tried the nail products and I am ordering the styling gel and finishing spray. I have even recommended the hair care products to my sister and she is thrilled with her new hair growth!"

"My husband loves the shampoo and now has his brother and Mom using it as they both have hair loss."

"This shampoo is the best I have ever tried. I love it. We have hard water and I couldn't find a shampoo that works, until now."

"Yeah, without a doubt the best shampoo and conditioner I have ever used. Plus it has other amazing DHT inhibiting properties. A bonus!"

"This product is amazing. It takes FOREVER (7 months now!) and is very EXPENSIVE (Nisim - you make us pay, don't you!), but the results are unique and rewarding. I will be a customer for life. I intend using the extract for the next year or two, then hopefully I can stop using that.

Today I used wax, slicked everything up in the air, and it used to be a big no-no, because it just really showed up my thinning hair, but today for the first time I looked in the mirror and said 'damn, Nisim....hahah'.

I am now a huge fan. I want shares in the company. hehe"

"I have found no other shampoo & conditioner on the market that I like better than Nisim's - especially the oil-free conditioner. It is absolutely the best. My husband uses the conditioner on his face for shaving and loves it!"

"I really like the Nisim Shampoo & especially the oil-free conditioner. I use the shampoo & conditioner because I have to wash my hair frequently do to the line of work I'm in which is the Fitness Industry. And because I have fine hair, the shampoo and conditioner does not weigh my hair down nor does it ever appear greasy. I have recommended this product to others."

"I have used your hair loss products for years with excellent results."

"My husband has been using the Nisim hair care products for the past decade. His regular barber recently retired and there is only one supplier within a 15 mile radius of us. It is much easier to shop on-line than travel to the other beauty shop. Nisim's on-line shopping experience was one of the best I've ever encountered. Thank you."

"I have used many, many, many shampoos to combat my hair loss since becoming menopausal. This really works! Thank you."

"Your shampoo is the best, I have used it for several years, it keeps my hair from falling out. Won't use anything else. Thank you."

"I have been extremely pleased with the products purchased from this company."

"I like the Nisim products. My hair was very dry and thinning. I have been using the product for two months and my hair immediately became soft and manageable. I don't notice as much hair loss. As for hair regrowth, I have not been using the product long enough yet and I have at times forgotten to use the extract (the key ingredient). I will be more diligent this time and look for marked improvement in the thickness of my hair. The texture and feel is dramatically improved. I will re-evaluate in 3-4 months from now. I recommended Nisim to my friend who is also very pleased with the softness and texture of her hair. We are hoping to grow thicker hair in time."

"Great product, I've been buying for years and recommended it to others."

"I don't know about other products,but NISIM shampoo and extract really work! You have the best customer service in the world too. I hope that NISIM business is growing and going well."

"I noticed a difference in my hair texture after the first use. My hair was soft and silky. This is my second orde and I have already seen positive changes. I hope you produce a oil moisterizer for black hair in the near future. Thank you."

"Nisim has great products. I have ordered from Nisim in the past and got great service and products. Also, Nisim products do just what is says it will do, if you follow the direction. Keep up the good work and you will keep me for life as a customer."

"I have been using Nisim hair restoral products for a couple of years now, and cannot believe the difference in my hair volume. I was experiencing considerable hair loss on top, to the point where I had to comb my hair carefully to cover the scalp that showed through. As a woman I found that very distressing. My hair is much thicker now and I am telling all my friends with thinning hair to try the products."

"Good quality and effective in stopping hair loss."

"I am very satisfield with Nisim products. This is the only time I have actually seen results in my hair. I am very pleased and glad I found Nisim on-line."

NewHair Biofactors Clinical Study - Proof It Works!

Overview

Nisim International is a recognized industry leader in hair technology with over 20 years of research and product development.

Nisim's strength lies in its herbal extracts: the double extracted procedure used by its laboratories ensure that the extract will contain both water soluble components and the odd numbered (13, 15 and 21) carbon chains of essential fatty acids.

The extractable portion of the various herbs also contains complex polsaccharides along with other essential nutrients necessary to maintain and promote healthy hair regrowth.

NewHair Biofactors was clinically tested through a longitudinal study with 148 male participants with varying degrees of baldness.

First, the participants were photographed and initial hair counts were done in a 2.5 cm circular section of the balding area.

After five months of treatment with the herbal extract the same participants were once again photographed and hair counts were conducted on the same area as previously done.

The results of this test were exceptional, even out-performing Nisim's own expectations.

85.7% of the participants had an increase in their terminal hairs of 30% or greater and 40.8% of the study group had an increase of 100% or greater (ie. doubling, tripling, or more).

Nisim International has backed up its clinical results with in-depth biopsy studies that show the potential mode of action of the product.


A Clinical Study On A Natural Organic Extract Solution
For the Treatment Of Androgenic Alopecia

(A condensed version published in the Medical Post Vol.29 pp61. August 24, 1993)

Effect of Topical Application of an All Natural herbal Extract Solution
on Male Pattern Baldness

A. J. Farmilo. Ph.D.
M. A. Stratis. R.T.
H.L. Minuk. M.D.F.R.C.P.(C) A.B.I.M.

SUMMARY

One-hundred-and-forty-eight participants with varying degrees of male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) from Stage III to Stage VIII, participated in an open-ended study using an all natural compound solution to determine the effects of hair regrowth.

The participants were photographed and initial hair counts were done in a 2.5cm diameter area of their balding scalp.

After five months of treatment the participants were re-photographed and hair counts were done on the same 2.5cm diameter area of the scalp.

The results indicate that 85.7% of the men in the study had an increase in their terminal hairs of 30% or greater. When evaluating the percent increase more closely we find that we can break the data down into three separate groups:

1. Significant regrowth.

2. Moderate regrowth.

3. No change.

Showing a significant regrowth was 40.8% of the study group and had an increase of 100% or greater (doubling, tripling or more) of terminal hairs counted on their five month post-treatment photo as compared to their initial pre-treatment photo. Of this group the highest increase of hairs was 472%, the lowest increase was 102% with the mean at 193.7% increase of hairs.

The group of men showing moderate regrowth, which we classed as 30%-100% increase in terminal hair regrowth, was 44.9% of the study group. The mean increase of that group was 61.5% increase of hair regrowth.

The remainder of the group, classed no change, was 14.3% of the study group, with the range being minus 13% to +27% increase in hair counts with the mean at 6.7%.

The participants were also classed according to their degree of baldness usuing Hamilton's classification scheme. Class IV balding men showed the greatest percent increase at an overall average of 144% more terminal hairs than pre-treatment, with Classes V and VI both slightly less at approximately 120% average increase. Class VII and VIII responded the poorest at 102% and 65% average increases respectively.

Another factor considered was the amount of treatment used during the study. The participants were told to use at least one bottle per month (five bottles in five months) but were allowed to use more if desired. We did not see any significant advantage to using more than one bottle per month. Our conclusion is that the stimulartory effect of the compound is achieved at the use rate of one bottle per month.

The age range of the participants in the ability to regrow hair was not a factor. The range of the participants in this study was 24-68 years old, with the average age being 38.7 years.

In summary, this study concludes that the natural herbal extract solution has a stimulatory effect on hair growth for at least 8 out of 10 men with androgenic alopecia. The earlier stages of balding appear to respond to a higher degree, but significant improvement was seen in participants at all stages of baldness. There appears to be an optimum rate of use of the product, and age does not seem to be a factor in response. Further studies are being carried out to determine significant factors in the response to the treatment, and to analyze the mechanism of action of the compound.

ABSTRACT

Histological analysis of seven patients with male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia) were assessed before and after treatment with a natural organic extract solution. Initial scalp biopsy specimens were obtained from an area of the balding scalp greather than 2.5cm in diameter.

Patients were provided with a scalp cleansing shampoo and the natural organic extract solution. They were instructed to cleanse the scalp daily and apply the extract at least twice daily. Fourteen weeks after the treatment the patients were re-biopsied from an area of the scalp adjacent to the initial biopsy and were evaluated.

Five of the seven patients demonstrated histological changes consistant with a significant increase in hair follicles at the cellular level, of their post treatment biopsies. Decreased levels of surface and epidermal scalp layer dihydrotestosterone (DHT) was also observed in the post treated biopsies using immuno-peroxidase techniques.

The monoclonal antibody QB-END-10 (CD 34) was also used immunohistochemically and demonstrated reactivity on the cell surface membrane of a portion of cells associated with the inner root sheath of the hair follicles of the post treatment biopsies. The reactivity of the QB-END-10 antibody raises many questions that require further investigation. Its significance is yet unkown, however the possibility that the natural organic extract may act as an endothelial derived relaxing factor (EDRF) and/or a stem cell stimulator cannot be ruled out.
