As green life gradually gains popularity, the high-end care market is heating up again. The “silicone-free” shampoo has become a hot concept, and it is quite popular in domestic supermarkets or sea scouring, as if using old-fashioned shampoo means Self-damaged health, OUT.


Experts reminded that "silicone-free oil" is not so god, not to mention the use should not be used, but also have to say the quality, or you must be careful to take the "bird's nest" out of the street.


Shampoo should also be typed


Otherwise the hair is rougher


The 28-year-old Yu Li is a planner of an advertising company in Hankou, and she is also a full-fledged Haitao. This year's double eleven, Xiaoyu did not have less "hands-on", in addition to the favorite bag shoes, I also heard that no silicone oil shampoo can reduce hair loss, healthier, and with the girlfriends lost a lot of overseas explosions of silicone-free oil wash Hair water.


But what she didn't expect was that the silicone-free shampoo that she liked didn't bring her a better change. Instead, she felt that the hair was more likely to stick, and the fluffy feeling on the top of the head after washing was after a night of sleep. It collapsed and the next day it looked like static electricity. It was very sturdy and seemed to be very typeless. It had to spend more time on shampooing and blowing.


Sun Hao, a senior hairdresser in Wuhan, explained that this has a lot to do with Yu Li's hair. Xiao Zhou's hair is hard and thick. Before that, she permed or dyed hair 3 to 4 times a year. The hair has been damaged, and the hair of the scalp has been damaged. The scales are not fully closed, the hair will be rough, and the silicone-free products are lacking in moisturizing and smooth silicone oil, which is naturally easier to knot.


Washing and protecting one is too lazy


It is reasonable to wash first and then protect


In the past few days, the reporter of Modern Health News has visited supermarkets such as Carrefour, Zhongbai Warehousing, and Wushang. In the refuge area, more than 80% of the products including foreign brands and local brands now contain silicone oil.


What is silicone oil? Silicone oil is a mixture of polydimethylsiloxanes having a chain structure of different degrees of polymerization or molecular weight. The silicone oil structure is very stable, with good lubricity, no greasy feel and good gloss. The reporter observed that Dove's shampoo emphasizes "containing keratin complex and nourishing hair scales" on the front of the bottle, and this nourishing essence oil refers to the analogy of silicone oil.


Since the early days of the company launched the "wash and protect" concept of shampoo, the Chinese have developed a habit of washing and protecting, they pursue simple and convenient, hope that a bottle can solve a variety of problems, at this time there is a softening effect The silicone oil is naturally added to it.


"The more scientific method should be the separation of washing and washing, washing is mainly based on cleaning, no silicone oil is added; the protection is based on suppleness, and silicone oil can be added." Luo Ruicheng, a manager engaged in the daily chemical industry for nearly 20 years, introduced.


Oily hair to grease


Dry hair retains moisture


In fact, care hair can be more detailed, as long as you know exactly what kind of hair you belong to. A few days ago, the shell net was released with a final hair care book.


It points out that the structure of the hair can be divided into hair scales, fur and mucinitis, which are all composed of keratin. The outer layer of scales is hard and brittle, which plays a protective role. But why do each of us have different hair? Mainly in the degree of greasy, damage, hair diameter and degree of curl. By analyzing this dimension, you can get at least 8 combinations (see table).




Although greasy and dry are different concepts, they are also related to each other. How to judge, in simple terms, if you find that your hair is using silicone-free shampoo, it will feel very dry the next day, mostly dry hair; if the hair is oily, it will be greasy after one or two days of washing without silicone oil. It is oily hair. If someone has oily scalp and dry hair, how can it break? Only segmental care, scalp oil control, hair hydration.


Don't entangle silicon-containing silicon


Control selection is the most important


At the same time, damaged hair and non-damaged hair are also important reference for selecting care products. The larger the hair diameter, the more fluffy the whole and the more energetic. Conversely, slender hair will appear to be less hairy and the hair will collapse.


Professor Chen Qiming, a professor of fine chemicals at Wuhan University of Engineering, stressed that the statement that silicone oil causes hair loss is not established. The public does not need to completely repel silicone oil. The proper amount of silicone oil has no negative effect. "Silicon-containing" and "silicon-free" should not kill you, but live in harmony and give consumers more choices.
