Silicone oil has good viscosity and ductility, and can repair damaged hair scales on the surface of hair. It not only makes an important contribution to the wet and slippery feeling and wet combing of hair, but also greatly helps the dry and slippery feeling and dry combing of hair.


But there are always rumors that silicone oil will clog pores...


In fact, silicone oil is also added to many skin care products. It is a high-quality, mild, and skin-friendly oil, and the concentration added is higher than that of shampoo products (about 5-10%). Why don't people say that silicone oil in skin care products will clog pores?


The concentration of silicone oil added to shampoo products is generally around 1% to 4%, and most of the silicone oil will be washed away when washing your hair, so don't worry.


Studies have confirmed that the deposition rate of silicone oil in shampoo on the surface of hair is at most 20%, and this "oil" deposited is really just a drop in the bucket compared to the "head oil" secreted by the scalp itself.


To determine whether a product contains silicone oil, you only need to see whether there is polydimethylsiloxane in the ingredients.
