Yes, this product contains Dimethicone, Dimethicone (also known as polydimethylsiloxane or PDMS) is technically called a silicone-based polymer. More simply, it's a silicone oil with certain properties that make it extremely popular in today's personal care properties. I've been wearing my hair strait for months now and I use this product..which I love. However, I always put a leave in conditioner with a small amount of aloe Vera juice in it and my hair do just fine. I do very low manipulation styles.

It also contains, methicone. Methicone is a linear silicone-based polymer as well.

Yes, this product is loaded with cones. It is good to use if you are planning on wearing your hair straight, but it is not too ideal for curl girl styles. I would suggest lighter conditioners such as Tressmme naturals or my personal favorite OGX Organics it makes your hair soft and works good diluted as a leave in conditioner, both do not contains cones. Hopes this helps:)

I have curly hair already and i find that it doesnt have a very strong hold, a gel might work better for your hair. This may be good for frizzy touchups after diffusing though. It helps with rewetting the hair and getting the definition back in the pieces that may have frizzed out, atleast thats what i use it mainly for.

Hi, I would not buy that product. It was absolutely horrible. It tangled despite washing and conditioning. I put moisturizer in and it still tangled a lot. I had to keep it braided before going to bed. I hated it. I purchased Rmy on another site. I don't have to braid over moisturize. All I do is comb and brush and it's as good as new.

Hi Jamie, These are the ingredients in the Apres Beach Hair Spray. I love it and thank you for reminding me I need some more!! I don't know if any of these ingredients are a silicone, I doubt it.

I have curly hair too but not thick. It works fine for me so far. Perhaps you should try it first if you can before buying it? Maybe at a hair stylist center?

hi, i just got a chi a little while ago and it works very well! i think it curls better than anything.. and i thought when i got it that i wouldnt get hot on the outside but it actually does.. stinks right? but i learned how to curl my hair very well without putting my fingers on that end of the straightener. i think you should get the chi anyways and just learn how to do it without touching it. its actually a lot easier than it seems.. and practice makes perfect... i did not go out in public the first time i curled it :P

I actually DO use it on my hair when I wear it curly! You can scrunch it right up......holds the curl! Not tacky or sticky. And it's aerosol. Again.....love this product. Praying they never stop making it.

I have really curly hair and it seems to eliminate some frizz and such. I just shower and put it in my damp hair. First I rub it in my hands a little then kind of scrunch it in

You should ask someone at your local beauty supply or where you get your lashes - because of the material ... not sure. ...and dismayed to see others have had an issue with this! I know that I would have contacted Amazon to make it right - which they will! ... mine works well - I like the fact I can control the amount of curl by how long I hold it on the lash surface. Good luck to you! love and hugs, cookie

Marsha,I have right above chin curly hair, & my Dava-trained stylist likes it a lot, & I trust her. I ought & use after Deva An-gel. It's good, & I like it the 2nd day when it's dry. I don't love, love it, but Google and check w/others on perhaps curlygirl website?

I am a naturally curly girl and use this product only on my roots to give me lift. Don't use it on the rest of your curls, just the top!!

Yes and the description says no fillers which makes it really confusing. Maybe the only way to find out is try a brand that have been tested to be pure silicone by other people and compare.

My own hair is curly but I am not Afro American. However, friends of mine who are use the products with really great results (they do not relax it and they have really nice springy, defined curls!) . It is the moisturizing nature of this product line that makes is perfect for your type hair (assuming it is coarse and curly since you asked). I would not hesitate to try it. You might want to try Fig for the most moisture and use it with Tea Tree (which everyone should use!). Start with the cleanser and the styling gel (any scent you like) and make the oils a close third you try. The oils (any scent you like) can be used the night before you cleanse your hair and if you have very coarse hair you can even mix a few drops in with your styling creme to add moisture and shine during the day. If you start off with that approach you will get the best results for your type hair. As you use the products you will learn what is best for in the line. Try it, I have a feeling you'll like it. My friends, hisband and I won't do without it now!

I end up with a wet look after my hair dries, I don't believe this is from the Moroccan oil tho, I use a few different products to get my curls looking the way I want. I don't like the wet look I get, which I believe is from my gel I use so once my hair starts to dry a little I just scrunch it a bit with my hand and the wet look is gone.
