Silikoni/Silicone
Silikoni su uljaste supstance koje imaju široku
primjenu: koriste se u kozmetici, industriji, u medicinske svrhe, posuđu za
kuhanje... U kozmetici često se nalaze u uljima za kosu, gelovima,
regeneratorima, maskama za kosu i šamponima. Važno je naglasiti da
silikoni nisu topivi u vodi. Služe kao 'izolacija' odnosno sprječavaju štetnim
vanjskim utjecajima poput kiše, vlage, sunčevim zrakama da prodiru u vlasi i
oštete kosu. Istodobno neki silikoni čine kosu mekanom, sjajnom i bez frizzy
efekta.
Silicones are oily substances which have wide usage:
cosmetics, industry, medical usage, cooking cutlery... In cosmetics they are
often found in oils, gels, conditioners, hair masks and shampoos. It is
important to highlight that silicones are not water suitable. They are used as
'isolation', preventing harmful outside influence such as rain, humidity and
sunrays to penetrate inside hair and damaging it. In the same time some silicones
can make hair look soft, shiny and without frizz.
