McIntyre Salons’ own Kay McIntyre is making waves in the industry again, this time in the February 2025 issue of Creative Head Magazine. Recognised as a leader in hair education, Kay has been spotlighted in her pivotal role in Nioxin’s latest professional training programme, arming stylists with the knowledge and confidence to tackle one of the most sensitive topics in hairdressing, thinning hair.

With scalp health now a major industry focus, stylists can no longer afford to ignore the science behind hair loss. Clients are searching for answers and need hair professionals who can do more than just recommend a thicker-cut fringe. That’s where Kay and Nioxin come in.

Nioxin, the industry-leading professional brand for thicker, fuller hair, has launched two new expert-led training courses designed to bridge the gap between hairdressing and scalp health expertise.

The one-day ‘Experience and Enable’ course helps stylists confidently address hair thinning with practical solutions, with sessions in Edinburgh and London in February. The two-day ‘Niologist’ course, backed by the Institute of Trichologists, covers scalp assessment, Nioxin technologies, and personalised solutions, with sessions in Manchester, Edinburgh, and London in February and March available.

Nioxin has been pioneering advanced scalp science for over 35 years, developing treatments like the Anti-Hair Loss Shampoo and the pro-exclusive Dermabrasion Treatment—designed to reset the scalp and create the perfect environment for hair growth. With its latest colour-coded system kits, it’s never been easier to prescribe the right products for every client.

Kay McIntyre knows this better than most. As a long-time educator, salon owner, and award-winning stylist, she’s passionate about helping professionals level up.

“So many clients feel lost when it comes to thinning hair. It’s emotional, it’s personal, and they need stylists who don’t just brush it off. This course is about giving professionals the tools to have those conversations, offer real solutions, and truly make a difference.” – Kay McIntyre
