Using Pantene or Treseme Products - anubi5 - 09-30-2011 Anyones opinion on using these products on pieces? Hairdressers will always advise against using them because "they contain a lot of silicon" but a lot of wearers LIKE using silicon products on their pieces... Opinions???

Yeah, 99% of the hair products you can buy contain silicon of some sort, they are not called silicon, the ingredients vary between cyclomethicone, dimethicone, amidimethicone, anything ending in cone is a silicon however I just found some really interesting information about silicones in hair products... Good and Bad ones. WATER SOLUBLE -dimethicone copolyol -lauryl methicone copolyol -hydrolyzed wheat protein hydroxypropyl polysiloxane -every silicone starting with PEG NON-SOLUBLE IN WATER, EASILY REMOVED BY GENTLE SHAMPOOS (for eg. those based on coco betaine) - amodimethicone (often combined with trideceth-12 & cetrimonium chloride which makes it even easier to clean away) - a very nice silicone -dimethicone -dimethiconol -beheonoxy dimethicone -phenyl trimethicone NON-SOLUBLE IN WATER, HARD TO REMOVE BY GENTLE SHAMPOOS (the shampoo must be left on for a few minutes) -simethicone -trimethicone NEED SULFATES TO BE REMOVE -- It's best to stay away from them. -cyclomethicone -cyclopentasiloxane -trimethylsilylamodimethic one - trimethylsiloxysilicates Pantene and Treseme contain all the bad silicones which are always at the top of their ingredient list so I guess I have my answer lol RE: Using Pantene or Treseme Products - JRob - 10-04-2011 Actually, the idea that silicones are bad is a myth. This is especially true with processed hair which has been stripped of the cuticle. The non water soluble silicones coat the hair shaft and form a protective barrier that protects the hair from moisture loss, heat, chemicals in styling products, the environment, etc. That's why the hair is treated with a silicone based product prior to leaving the factory. There really isn't anything better to keep the hair soft and strong.

I think only to the extent of a conditioner. Cheaper shampoos mostly contain sulphates which produce a product with an alkaline pH, even some sulphate free shampoos are too alkaline. Find a shampoo with a low pH about 4 I rekon. So far I have found Alfa Parf have a low pH shampoo which I use, but expensive, if someone knows of a cheaper one Id love to know.

Cant get them in Australia, can't get them delivered to australia from amazon, other places are too expensive to ship to Australia. Pantene is everywhere.
