How to rub niacin into hair?

Very often, girls ask how to rub nicotinic acid into their hair? To be more precise, it is not rubbed into the hair, but into the scalp. There are several ways to use niacin for hair, which we will talk about today.

Nicotinic acid ampoules for hair

Nicotinic acid can be in tablets and ampoules (injection solution) that only a doctor can prescribe for you to treat a specific condition. We will talk about the use of ampoules of niacin for hair, but for rubbing into the scalp, and not for injections. Although in the instructions for the ampoules, you will not find a description of the use of this drug for strengthening hair, stimulating growth, or anything about hair in general. That is, ampoules of nicotinic acid do not have direct purposes for treating hair, but they are prescribed even by trichologists in the complex therapy for the treatment of hair loss, and many manufacturers also add nicotinic acid to the composition of anti-hair loss products or to stimulate growth.

The action of niacin for hair is that it expands the capillaries, due to this, blood flows to the hair follicle and intensively nourishes it. And we know that all the nutrients to the hair come from the blood, so it is also important to eat right. And if the diet is unbalanced, then you need to additionally take vitamins, at least during the course of niacin.

Also, nicotinic acid cleanses the skin and lymph from toxins, and intoxication quite often can cause exhaustion and hair loss. And also nicotinic acid promotes skin regeneration and preservation of collagen elasticity.

How to rub in nicotinic acid?

Ampoules of nicotinic acid can be bought without any problems in a pharmacy and without a doctor's prescription, moreover, the price for them is about a dollar for a pack of ten ampoules. These ampoules are best kept in the refrigerator.

  • Nicotinic acid is suitable for all hair types, including oily hair.
  • Niacin does not grease the hair and therefore does not need to be rinsed off.
  • It is necessary to use nicotinic acid for hair in a course, the course is 30 procedures.
  • Nicotinic acid is rubbed only on washed, damp hair.
  • For the period of the course of nicotinic acid, buy a shampoo without silicones, usually strengthening shampoos and anti-hair loss are without silicones.

The essence of the procedure

  1. We wash my hair with shampoo, but preferably without silicones, then apply a mask or conditioner, rinse everything thoroughly and wrap the hair in a towel to remove excess moisture.
  2. Apply 1-2 ampoules of nicotinic acid to clean, damp hair; for convenience, you can move it into a container with a dispenser or a pipette. We apply nicotinic acid along the partings (about 5-6 cm) and massage the scalp for five to ten minutes. No need to wash off!

If you don't wash your hair every day, but want to rub in nicotine daily, you can try another option. Just do not use gel, foam or hairspray! The first day you wash your hair and use nicotinic acid as usual, and on the second day use a decoction of nettle or burdock. We make a strong decoction of nettle or other herb and apply it to the scalp using a cotton pad (just a little, it is unnecessary for the decoction to flow through the hair, we need to moisten the scalp a little), and then we apply nicotinic acid to the wet scalp and do a massage. The decoction of nettle does not grease the hair, but rather dries it out, and besides, nettle is famous for its strengthening properties.

You can also make masks with nicotinic acid at home, read more in this article:https://myhair.bigbadmole.com/en/vitaminy-dlya-volos/kak-polzovatsya-nikotinovoj-kislotoj-dlya-rosta-volos/

Who shouldn't use niacin

Nicotinic acid is a vasodilator, so it is not recommended for use with high blood pressure.And also during pregnancy and lactation; with vegetative-vascular dystonia; frequent headaches; scalp sensitivity; and with individual drug intolerance.

Try to listen to the reaction of your body, if you have any discomfort after applying nicotinic acid, it is better to stop using it.
