The hair of contemporary youth is very valuable
The post-90s who are punking out for health
The obsession with hair care and anti-hair loss is unprecedented
Whenever there is a shampoo on the market that boasts
“Anti-hair loss”
will sell very well
On the other hand, if it is accused of “causing hair loss”
will be the end of the road
For example, “silicone oil”
In the last year or two
Whether it’s TV commercials or online celebrities sharing
have been promoting the concept that
The silicone oil added in traditional shampoo will clog pores and cause hair loss.
For a while the supermarkets sold silicone oil-free shampoo to burst
Of course, the price is also much more expensive than shampoos containing silicone oil
But is silicone oil really so “bad”?
Silicone-free and really “better”?
Is the extra money spent “more worth it”?
Is there a relationship between silicone oil and hair loss?
No!
If you go through the ingredients list of shampoo
I’m sure you can’t see the word silicone oil
Polydimethylsiloxane
Polydimethylsiloxane alcohol
Amino-terminated polydimethylsiloxane
is its real name
Silicone oil is a large molecule substance
and is not absorbed by hair follicles
It is harmless to human body and low cost to manufacture
The amount added to the shampoo is not too high
Leaves very little residue on the scalp after shampooing
The culprit of hair loss
It could be androgens and genetics
It can also be due to irregular life, staying up late
Mental stress, poor nutrition
It may also be postpartum hair loss
……
But there is no such type of hair loss caused by silicone oil
And, scalp oil is not the cause of hair loss!
The so-called oil clogging pores, causing hair loss
It’s really a trumped up charge
Who is better, silicone oil or silicone oil free?
Since the surface layer of hair is hair scales
Clean hair will be frizzy under normal circumstances
One comb to the bottom? Impossible
Thank goodness it doesn’t get tangled.
Silicone oil as a softener in shampoo
Distributes evenly on the hair surface
Grab the hair scales and fill in the surface bumps
Makes hair smooth and silky
It also reduces frictional damage to the hair scales during shampooing
For a long time, it has been the
The best choice of softener in shampoo
Nowadays, “silicone-free” has emerged.
Is there a better choice of softener?
Silicone free shampoos
Need to add other softeners instead of silicone oil
However, the softening effect is not comparable to silicone oil
Hair will be more dry after washing
So someone came up with the concept of “volumizing”
For young people with hair loss/low hair
Volumizing can be considered an advantage
After all, it will look like more hair volume
But voluminous dry hair in autumn and winter
Is a walking static emitter
Everywhere you go, it explodes
So you need to buy additional
Conditioner, hair mask and other products to make hair soft and smooth
Of course, spending more money is not the worst
The worst thing is that conditioners and hair masks often contain silicone oil
Silicone oil vs silicone oil-free, how to choose?
Hair is greasy and soft
Choose silicone-free oil is more fluffy and fresh
And like soft and long hair
or dry, static-prone, perm-damaged hair
Silicon oil shampoo may be more suitable
