5 Silicone Free Hairspray Brands
It actually doesn’t really make sense to wash your hair with a silicone-free shampoo, and then apply silicones by using conventional styling products such as hair sprays, gels or mousses.
We have put together tis list of silicone free hairspray brands that you can use without burdening your hair or the environment with silicones.
Another ingredient that raises concerns are Parabens. They are commonly used as preservatives in hair care products, including hairsprays, to extend their shelf life. While they help prevent microbial growth and maintain product quality, some concerns exist about their potential impact on hormonal regulation and skin sensitivity
The safest way to find silicone-free and paraben-free hairspray is to use certified natural cosmetic products, as these products do not allow silicones or silicone oils, nor parabens.
