Thin hair
Reviewer:

After a bout of anemia thinned my once beautiful hair, I could not adjust to the new thin hair (scalp showing) look. This product is both remarkable and easy to use.
Can be very helpful for the right people

I have bloack hair and show slight thinning on my crown so this product works very well for me if I use a small amount. You just have to learn not to use too much and it can make your hair look a lot thicker.
A Winner!

I purchased a bottle each of Organin and Toppik at the same time so I could try the both. They're both pretty comparable and AMAZING. None of my family or friends could tell even up close. Here's a comparison of both:
* COLOR - I have black hair and ordered the black in both. Organin had the darker, richer black, while Toppik was more of a dark grey. Toppik was also duller, while Organin had more life to it. Winner: Organin.
* APPLICATION & COVERAGE - Both are applied in the same way where you shake the bottle over the area needing coverage, then finish off with hairspray. The Toppik fibers are slightly heavier so they fell more evenly, but applying Organin was quicker because the fibers are darker and cover quicker. Winner: Tie.
* TEXTURE - Toppik fibers feel a bit grittier, while Organin's fibers are softer and kind of feel like lint. Once applied to the hair and finished with hairspray, Toppik hair feels more like hay while Organin hair feels softer to the touch. Winner: Organin.
* DURABILITY - This one was a toughy. Once finished with hairspray, both are pretty durable in that it'll only come off if you scratch ur head or touch your scalp (so, scratch gently!). Rain or a little water wasn't a problem. However, when I sweat it appeared that Toppik stayed better, while Organin pooled up. Organin's softer, lighter fibers also required more hairspray to keep in place. If you don't use any hairspray, the Toppik will stay on much better because their fibers are electrostatically charged, whereas the Organin fibers are not. Winner: Toppik.
I ultimately returned the Organin because the Toppik stayed on better when sweating, and it clung to the hair/scalp better without hairspray, and required less hairspray when I did used it. Organin would be better for those who don't sweat much, who want darker fibers, and is slightly more economical. Either way, both are winners and the confidence it's given me has been priceless!

Having tried both Toppik and Organin I have decided that, although it costs a little more, Toppik is the better product.
I totally recommend

My personnal opinion of this product is amazing! I have tried a few different products that claim to have similar results. I have found that this one really works better than the others.

It's really hard to say how I feel about this product. It's not the product that I want to comment on, but the concept itself. This product works like Troppix, but much less expensive. Yes, I agree that the holes could be smaller so that less will come out, but once you get the hang of it, you either 1-get good at it or 2-simply don't care. I've learned that after you wash and blow-dry your hair, put the product on and then comb through your hair without touching the scalp. This will make the fibers fall onto the scalp and less will come off of the actual hair that is there. The when you apply styling products, apply it only to the hair and don't touch the scalp. Although it may look good at home, outside is a different story. I'm just glad that my problem is on the back of my head so can't really see what's going on back there when I get outside. LOL. Oh well, no one has said anything and that can be for a number of reasons. This is the only product and/or concept that we have to accept unless we decide to go under the knife. And trust me, I have thought about it. If I only knew what my head looks like shaved without actually shaving it, all would probably be well. Bottom line, if used correctly and in certain lights, it really is invisible. Getting old sure does suck! Oh yeah, and remember, wipe your counters and floors with every use.
Fantastic Product and much better then Toppic

I have been using Organin for the last 1 yr. It's really good and would highly recommend this to women with thinning hair. I have really thick hair which began to thin in the front due to PCOS.Was really losing my confidence but after using this product I feel much better.

I think the product works very well. However sometimes it comes out of the container to fast. I think the holes should be smaller. I also think the site shouls provide links to permanent hair replacement sites for women. There seems to a ton for men but none for women.

It makes a mess and it shakes of extreemly easy. I can't go through the day worrying about someone or something touching my head.
as good as toppik

i'm a woman who's been using this for a couple weeks now and really like it since it covers well and is pretty easy to throw on. i don't find it terribly messy and even if it flakes a bit, it's very easily wiped off. the only minus to these fiber products is you completely cover your part line, which i think looks sorta unnatural, unless you wear your hair in a way that you have no part, like many men (or your hair's in a ponytail). i try to remedy that problem by scratching _very_ carefully at the part to remove a little extra fibers...it seems to work.
too flaky.... not so funny when you scratch your head!

organin ...i purchased this product after i ran out of toppik... at first, i was really impressed... but then, i started to notice that the flakes wouldn't stick to my scalp - and yes, i used the hairspray recommended by toppik.... so, all in all, i have stopped using it and re-ordered toppik.... i do not recomend this product.
Very good, but 1 worry...

This is the first hair thickening fiber I've used, and it's helped a lot--it's so nice to not have people stare at you because you're a woman with thinning hair whose scalp is showing through. But I have one worry. When you shake it on your head, the fibers seem to float around in the air and I'm worried about inhaling them, as I don't know what they might do to your lungs with long-term use. Just today, I decided to put the container right next to my scalp and just gently shake it on, and that seemed to cut down on the number of fibers in the air. I see there are lots of other products to try, too, so I may do that, as the light brown color I got was kind of reddish, and my hair is paler brown and graying.
Awesome

I really don't write reviews for anything but after being a Toppik user for 4 years I felt I had to. Organin is great. The color match (Black) is better than Toppik and it covers better also. The only draw backs are you have to use a good hair spray to keep it in place and the bottle (for me anyway) doesn't last as long as Toppik. But as far as doing the job it is supposed to do, I give it an A+.
Wow!

My hair is thinning due to a condition called PCOS. I'm 25 and this was the hardest symptom for me to deal with. Organin makes it impossible to see that my hair is thin! It masks the hairloss perfectly. Even when my scalp sweats, it stays in place and is so easy to use. 2 thumbs way up!

I really have nothing else to compare this product to ,but that is alright for now as I am thankful that it covered my scalp where it is thinning and I really found no problem with it. I am very careful though not to use it all over my head as I do not know if it really does get all over the pillow case and I don't feel the need to put it all over my scalp only what I see on the top of my scalp on top right in the front crown area though my hair is thinning all over this seems to be the worst place. I find this whole procedure depressing meaning that I had no idea that I would have to ever go through this. I am trying so many things but right now to no avail. This is all too devasting to me and I am sure to many who are like myself a woman loosing her hair . I feel bad for all of us . I am however thankful that I found this product Organin as it seems to cover quite well and no one even notices. Sure a few specles got on my face and under my nails but I just brushed them off, it doesn't stain anything . I will stick with this because right now it gives me some confidense that I can look in the mirror and not see my scalp and you can't notice that I am wearing this product. I will purchase this again and in the meantime just keep hoping and praying my hair will grow back ,thankfully it is shoulder length and I can hide it with a style and organin.

I like this product very much. however I am finding that I am not sure if I am using it properly because once the powder is gone I can still see my scalp.

i love this product, it's so undetectable..i have been using it for two years now and it is also economical. I use it together with dermmatch. I use derm match as a base
its good to disguise your hairline, then the hair spary concealer, then the aerosol spray and finish it with this product then aerosol spary again..superb!!
i know, its a bit high maintenance but hey it works..i can swim with it, party all night and no one notices that my hair is balding..i look so much younger so iput up with the high maintenance bit (its all worth it, for vanity sake).. i order this product via the net and they have to send it via ups..quite costly
simply amazed

I bought this product, skeptical...just like everyone else. I am 20 years old and have had thinning hair on the crown of my scalp since 17... I needed to do something. I ordered the light brown and wow... you would think that I had NO PROBLEM with thinning hair. The best part is... it looks so natural and it looks like there is real hair grown. I will be ordering more when my supply is up... they have me hooked for life!
