@abbeyyung: I have seen many comments about the Pantene Sheer Volume Shampoo making people’s hair feel “waxy” because of all the “silicone buildup” from it , so I wanted to explain what I think is going on here. This shampoo is not only free from silicones, but it’s free from waxes, fatty alcohols, oils, and really anything else that conditions our hair like those kinds of ingredients do. Because of this, it provides a true deep clean that not only removes buildup, but also doesn’t add any in the way that other shampoos can either. Using a shampoo with conditioning ingredients isn’t bad- many of my favorites have silicones, oils etc. But if you’re used to only using those kinds of shampoos, especially if they are also the kind that only contain super gentle cleansing agents (these exploded in popularity over the last several years so it’s common), you’re going to experience very different results than you’re used to. That’s why I’ve always said this shampoo makes my hair feel squeaky clean- it’s not wax that you’re feeling, it’s truly clean hair! I think this is why Pantene originally marketed this as a volume shampoo… because it’s removing all that buildup that can make your hair feel heavy and weighed down. I’m a huge proponent of using a deep cleaning shampoo once a week (or more if needed) to get this thorough, buildup removing cleanse because it’s not only good for your scalp, but it can also help you get better results with the rest of your routine (like by allowing your bond repair products to penetrate better for example). BUT I totally get that this one is an extra deep clean and not for everyone. If you don’t love it, check out part 3 of my Abbey Yung Method series. I have gentler options that can still give you a thorough clean with a little less squeak! #shampoo #pantene #washday #HairCareTips
