Silicon: Good or Bad for your Hair?
Silicon based hair products sometimes get mixed reviews: Are serums and other silicon based products good or bad for your hair? Well the simple answer is, both!
While these products do what they claim to: reduce the frizziness of your hair and also add a lot of shine, but they also cause quite a bit of product build up in your hair, which can be quite difficult to get rid of. While smoothing the hair shaft, the product coats the hair with what is essentially a rubber based product. However, there is no serious or long lasting damage that can be caused to hair by using these products.
Some experts advice using a clarifying shampoo, or oiling the hair to get rid of silicon build up while some advice adding baking soda to shampoo while washing. However it is always best to take the advice of a trained professional who will recommend what is the best solution for your particular hair requirement, if you feel that there is excessive product build-up in your hair.
