In reply to Gio. So I want to try out garnier's whole blends line, but now they're shampoos have silicone! My hair is curly/wavy and medium/fine density, and it doesn't get super product buildup but definitely some. Should I still use the shampoo??

I have curly/wavy hair. Silicones and sulfates aren’t a big deal to me, BUT i get some product buildup once in awhile due to my low porosity strands. Of course I remove them with surfactants, but if I wanted to use a shampoo with silicones would it still remove the buildup? Or should I just opt for a shampoo without?

I have curly , wavy, frizzy hair . I went all natural water only,a gentle Castille with calendula etc , hair was dryer than ever , tried sulphate free and no cones , sulphate free shampoo very drying and the conditioner too I had to add heaps of macadamia or jojoba oil tried moo goo and my hair just constantly looked like crap. Then I remembered when my hair looked and felt best when i used Pantene about 15 years ago so back to pantene I go with heaps of cones . I use the conditioner as a leave in and my hair looks amazing. The question that brings me here is , do I have to shampoo before applying an oil treatment or will the silicone block it from absorbing any moisture or is that a myth? Can u recommend a brand of shampoo that’s not over drying for silicone user?

In reply to Marcus. Marcus, oh no! Sorry to hear silicones don't work for you. But at least now you know what to avoid.
