Non sulfate poos and silicones

[Britt]

I was wondering yesterday...
Is a poo w/o sulfates able to remove cones? I usually stay away from cones b/c I don't like how it makes my hair feel, but I bought Silicon mix leave in this wknd, and I just ordered Biolage detangling solution (I hope I like it), would a poo w/o sulfates be able to remove the cones from these products sufficiently? I have Biolage's Delicate Care no sulfate poo.


Oh - figured I'd mention this, the Silicon mix leave in does a great job or making your air dried hair come out nice and smooth. I'm assuming it's the cones in it that does this. On Saturday, I was washed, deep conditioned, applied a good amount of the silicon mix leave in, and then as usual pulled my hair back in a scrunchie and pinned up my wet ponytail. The next day my hair continued to air dry and usually my hair would be more fluffy and less smooth, but last night I realized that my hair was much smoother than usual , I am also 8 wks post and have a good amount of new growth. Attached is a pic of my ponytail this morning.

I think it depends in the types of silicones. I rarely use silicones but when I do, I use a clarifying shampoo and follow it with my regular routine. This works for me. I use nexus aloe rid which clarifies and chelates. My regular non sulfate shampoo is abba pure moisture. I'm sure others will chime in and I hope this is helpful.

Thanks! I'm really curious to know would weekly pooing w/ a non sulfate poo remove silicones so that I don't get buildup.

There are non-sulphate shampoos that can remove certain silicones. There's a list floating around somewhere. I'll try to find it...
