Have you ever encountered the following experience? After
using a shampoo or conditioner that claims to make your hair silky smooth, your
strands do feel luscious at the beginning, but then after a period of time,
they start to become frizzy, feel weighed down and even resulted in hair loss?
I experienced losing nearly a hundred hairs every day after shampooing awhile
ago, this really freaked me out as I thought something was wrong with my body,
but then (luckily) later I found out that it was caused by my shampoo which
contains Dimethicone.
Dimethicone is a synthetic oil-based material, which boosts moisturizing and hydrating properties. Upon contact with the hair, it will fill up gaps between the hair cuticles, thus giving a shiny appearance and smooth touch to your hair. However, Dimethicone also has its downsides. Since it is water insoluble in nature, it cannot be removed thoroughly after hair wash. On the contrary, it forms a coat on your hair and with repeated washes, the coating gets so thick that it makes the hair loses elasticity, feels weighed down, clogs follicles, irritates the scalp and in more serious cases, leading to hair loss.
So, it is my shampoo which contains Dimethicone that causes my hair loss! As soon as I stop using it, the situation improves a lot. After I dropped that evil shampoo like a hot potato (yes, you should too!), I was on the lookout for a Dimethicone-free shampoo, and finally I have found an amazing hair care brand from the US – Giovanni.
Being an organic brand, Giovanni’s products do not contain Dimethicone, Parabens, SLS, chemicals and they are pH balanced with biodegradable formulas. Their shampoos deeply cleanse hair and clarify scalp, while leaving no traces of harmful chemicals, providing gentle care for your tresses.
Giovanni Smooth As Silk Deep Moisture Shampoo (For Damaged Hair) 8.5oz / 250ml
Features a pearlized formula that transforms hair into a silky palette. The luxurious lather soothes dry, chemically processed hair and cleanses gently for manageable smoothness. I like its subtle fruity fragrance from Apple and Aloe Vera Essences, which provide antioxidant protection and act as enhanced moisturizers for even silkier hair. 100% vegetarian ingredients, USDA Certified Organic.

After using the above two products for two weeks, my hair
loss improves dramatically. It’s been 3 months since I started using them, now
only a few hairs fall out occasionally after I wash my hair. My scalp feels
more cleaned and clarified, and itchy feeling greatly reduces. For those who
want to have healthy mane, Giovanni’s shampoo and conditioner ar e must-try
