1.Silicones can be a little confusing as there are so many different types! If you are using Friendly or Airy Silicones, they can be used in your every day routine. Friendly Silicones must be washed off every 4 days with a Non-Sulfate Shampoo so make sure you don't spend a whole week without washing your hair if you're using this kind of silicone (keeping a silicone longer than 4 days on your hair creates big risks of dryness). 2.If you use Resilient Silicones, these must be used less frequently because they have to be washed off with a Sulfate Shampoo (reset shampoo) This can be drying to the strands and scalp so that is why it is best to only use Resilient Silicones 4 days before you do your reset wash! Quick reminder, your reset wash with a strong shampoo should be done more or less 1-2x per month, depending on your unique hair profile.
