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
