Shampoo without silicones

Are you looking for a shampoo without silicones? Keune has silicone-free shampoos for every hair type.

What is silicone-free shampoo?

Silicones are ingredients added to all kinds of hair products, such as shampoos, conditioners, and styling sprays. Silicones are hypoallergenic, non-irritating, and pose no danger to your health. They consist of polymers derived from silicon, a natural mineral. You can recognize silicone-based ingredients by words ending in: -cone, -xane, -conol, and -silane.

What do silicones do in shampoo?

Silicones have various functions in hair care:

• They ensure that your shampoo lathers and distributes well.

• Silicones detangle the hair.

• They form a protective and water-repellent layer around your hair.

• They create a smooth layer around the hair.

• Silicones make your hair shine.

Why choose silicone-free shampoo?

Silicones are not inherently bad. It varies by the type of silicone and hair type. There are water-soluble, non-water-soluble, and volatile silicones. Water-soluble silicones are easily rinsed out with water or a sulfate-free shampoo. Non-water-soluble silicones are more difficult to wash out of your hair.

These silicones can build up in your hair, creating a layer around it. This causes hair products to work less effectively because they cannot penetrate the hair.

That is why many people choose a silicone-free shampoo or a shampoo without sulfates, parabens, and silicones, especially if they want to prevent buildup.

Which silicone-free shampoo is right for you?

For most hair types, hair products containing silicones can be used without problems. However, for some hair types, they can cause an unwanted effect; they can weigh the hair down. This often happens due to accumulated silicones. With a clarifying shampoo, such as the Perfect Clarity Shampoo, you wash the buildup out of your hair. We recommend a silicone-free shampoo for people with lifeless, fine, or oily hair. We also advise people with a sensitive scalp to consider using silicone-free shampoo. Do you have dry and unruly hair? Then silicones might be the solution for you to make it look healthier. Silicones, sulfates, and parabens all have their own pros and cons, but not all silicone shampoos are the same. It is often a matter of trying them out.
