Hi Samantha

Silicone varieties (like dimethicone, dimethiconol, etc.. as long as it has "cone") can be good or bad for your hair. As you can see from this particular thread, there's been a lot of debate about whether silicone derivatives are good for you. It's kinda like... Bill Clinton. You either like him or you don't and everybody has their own evidence or experience to support their opinion.

It depends on your hair's results... The majority of finehairs' tresses are "suffocated" by silicones while others can get sleek results. Rapunzel put it this way: she suggested that after awhile of my cone use, I should clarify and use a coneless to monitor and see if my change revealed any damage (for the record, I didn't get any). Experiment with a silicone product yourself--check the label for something with "cone"-- and let us know how your hair likes it.
