Silicone in Aveda?

[user1955]

Does anyone know if Aveda's Damage Remedy shampoo and conditioner have silicone in please? Other products that I have tried that have the same impact on my hair have silicone and I've given it up, so mega impressed with Damage Remedy if it hasn't.

I just checked the list of Curly Girl approved conditioners, and it's not listed on there, although a number of other Aveda conditioners are.

Curly Girl method recommends using silicone free conditioner, so I'm guessing that there is silicone in there, although it could be another 'banned' ingredient like a paraben or alcohol. I had a quick look online and couldnt see an ingredients list anywhere, sorry.

Definitely silicone free are;

AVEDA Be Curly Conditioner – Enhances curls and reduces frizz
AVEDA Be Curly Cowash
AVEDA Shampure Conditioner
AVEDA Invati Thickening Conditioner
AVEDA Pure Abundance Volumising Clay Conditioner
AVEDA Rosemary Mint Conditioner

Damage Remedy has MI in it. Which is a cheap preservative linked to skin allergies.

Have just checked my bottle of the regular Damage Remedy conditioner and it does say dimethicone which I think is silicone...

Anything with -cone -conol or -xane at the end is a silicone

Thanks everyone. I did wonder if it was too good to be true.
