    How to tell if things contain silicone?
    Hey all!
    Don't know where to post this really but here it is:

    My doctor told me not to use shampoo with silicone in it bur didn't tell me what shapoo's have silicone or not in them.
    So how do I tell on the ingredients if a shampoo contains alcohol?

    Thanks!

    Well, manufacturers have to list what's in their shampoos, so you want to look for silicones in the ingredients on the back of the packet..
