beautiful hair with silicones?

silicones create an illusion.

Silicones. You’ll find them in almost every haircare product from the supermarket or your hairdresser. But the truth is, they don’t actually help your hair.

So why does your hair feel so soft after using them? Silicones are water-repellent and form a smooth coating around each strand. This gives a temporary boost of shine and volume, but it does nothing to improve the actual condition of your hair. If it was dry or fragile before, it will stay that way. On top of that, silicones are hard to wash out and tend to build up on your scalp. This makes it harder for your skin to breathe and for the natural oils your body produces to reach and nourish your hair.

That’s why RainPharma leaves silicones out, opting instead for advanced, plant-based alternatives. Think esters from natural fatty acids that care for, smooth and detangle your hair—without leaving residue behind. Combined with the right nutrition and supplements, this is an approach that truly improves the condition of your hair.

But did you know that if you choose natural haircare, you need to switch both your shampoo and your conditioner? Pairing a natural shampoo with a silicone-based conditioner won’t work. In fact, it makes it even harder for the natural shampoo to remove silicones. The result? Build-up that leaves your hair feeling heavy or unwashed. The problem isn’t the shampoo—it’s the residue left behind by the conditioner.
