250&nbsp;Using heat on our natural hair can be dangerous. It can be harmful to our strands and it can cause our fragile strands to dry out, break and become damaged. Does that stop us from doing it? Yes for some but no way for others.&nbsp; Using heat styling can be safe if used sparingly and will protection. Using a heat protectant is the only way to go but what if you hate silicones? Welp, all you gotta do is invest in a silicone-free heat protectant and keep it moving.Direct Heat vs. Indirect Heat On Natural HairThe market is saturated with heat protectants but not all are the same. If you are in the market for a silicone-free one, check out our list of the best of the best, cause we’ve got four of them and they are awesome!A heat protectant is a hair product (usually a spray) which is designed to coat and protect that hair from heat damage when using direct heat styling tools like a curling iron, flat iron, hair dryer (without a diffuser) or even a hot comb. It’s important to use a protectant to keep your hair healthy and to act as a barrier to heat and keep the strands from drying out and becoming damaged. Most heat protectants use ingredients like silicones as they coat the hair and protect it from what you apply to the strands.&nbsp; Silicones are a touchy topic in the natural hair community so let’s discuss:What Are Silicones?Silicones are plastic-like polymers that are used in hair products to lubricate, condition and add shine. They are usually identified by names that end in “-cone,” “col,” “conol,” or “-zane,” which makes them easy to spot on product labels. Typically, silicones are used to coat the hair shaft in order to prevent frizz, smooth the cuticle and protect against thermal damage from heat styling tools. The two most common forms of silicones found are non-soluble and water soluble.Non-SolubleNon-soluble silicones are synthetic materials that cannot be removed or penetrated with water, which can be inadvertently damaging to the hair. These polymers can only be removed from the hair shaft by washing with clarifying shampoos or shampoos with harsh sulfates. These types of shampoos, although sometime necessary are drying to the strands. The problem with non-soluble silicones is the fact that they seal the hair shaft completely, allowing no moisture to penetrate the hair shaft until the silicone is washed out.Water-Soluble SiliconesWater-soluble silicones can be penetrated by and dissolved with water, which makes them easier to deal with. The good thing about these silicones is the fact that they don’t cause build up, can enhance moisturizing properties, can add humectant qualities, allows moisture penetration, and are easy to remove. It might be beneficial to look into trying out water-soluble silicones if you’re looking to reduce frizz and impart more shine to your locks without running the risk of dehydrating your locks.For obvious reasons, some naturals prefer to not use any hair products with silicones and that includes a heat protectant.
