Tip of the Week: Applying Silicone Oil on Hair
Among the many post-hair care products, Silicone oil presides the lot and is commonly used. It is because Silicone Oil is one of the most effective ingredients on hair which covers hair with a thin, waterproof hydrophobic coating. This coating could reduce the absorbency of the hair that makes it less likely to absorb humidity. Living in a humid country like Sri Lanka, this is important if you want to keep your style or hair in good shape after styling it. Silicone Oil is recommended for smoothing and straightening. On the other hand, it reduces moisture loss from the inside of the hair by acting as a conditioning agent as well as a coating to protect the hair. Silicone Oil can also be used as a lubricator on the surface of your hair so it feels smoother and could handle easily by giving it a slippery and less tangled texture. Make sure to purchase a Silicone Oil recommended by your hairdresser that suits your hair.
