There is a rumor: Does silicone-containing shampoo damage hair? Rumor debunked: No. There is currently no scientific evidence that silicone oil in shampoo is harmful to hair.


The silicone oil in shampoo is internationally used. The reason why it contains this ingredient is that the surface of the hair is actually rough, and friction between each other will cause knots and entanglements, making it difficult to comb. Silicone oil will fill the rough part, and the surface of the hair will become smooth and smooth. In shampoo, it is usually called "polydimethylsiloxane", and you can almost see the label of this ingredient on the outer packaging of most hair care products. And we need to note that even if the shampoo is silicone-free, all the matching conditioner products contain the ingredient "silicon", so is silicone oil really harmful? It goes without saying.
