NewLife™ Organic Care Natural Conditioner is a restorative and nourishing conditioner which uses natural oils to hydrate and protect your hair. It is suitable for everyday use and does not weigh your hair down. It keeps your hair soft and silky without the build-up of silicone on your hair shaft.

What is silicone, and why is it bad?

Silicone is a manmade substance, something of a hybrid between synthetic rubber and a synthetic plastic polymer.

Silicone is commonly found in shampoos, conditioners, and hair styling products. It is easy to see why silicone is a haircare staple: it coats the hair shaft, which locks in moisture, reduces frizz, and gives hair that coveted soft and silky feel.

However, while your hair may feel silky smooth right now, long-term use of silicones would lead to excessive build-up on your hair, resulting in a dry feel and dull appearance. You may even notice your hair becoming weaker and more prone to breakage.

Also, the layer of silicones seals around the hair strand that keeps the hair hydrated from within, this same coat can also prevent water from fully penetrating your hair, which can lead to excessive dryness and damage over time, especially in curls.

And if you are using a form of silicone that is not water-soluble, it can be really hard to remove it with a regular wash.

Is your hair product truly free from silicone?

You may not find the word “silicone” on the back of your shampoo or conditioner bottle but that does not mean your hair product is truly free from silicone. That is because there are many kinds of silicone with many different names. Generally, anything ending in “-cone” is a form of silicone, such as amodimethicone or dimethicone.

What should I use instead?

NewLife™ Organic Care Natural Conditioner is a silicone-free product. It contains essential oils and vitamin E that strengthen and nourish your hair; it is gentle yet effective and leaves your hair shiny and silky soft without any heavy or greasy residues.
