I've been asked in drugstores lately by staff if I need any help, whilst I pick up shampoo after shampoo and conditioner after conditioner, analysing the ingredients for silicones.  It's become a mission to be able to learn and spot silicone-free products!

Even Joico's Intense Hydrator has a cone, but it's water-soluble.

This comment made me wonder what water-soluble silicones there are, and I found this information, which seemed helpful to know.
