    silicone-based polymer used for smoothing and conditioning hair

    Dimethicone, also known as Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), is a type of silicone commonly used in hair and skincare products. It acts as a conditioning agent, providing a smooth, silky feel by forming a protective barrier on the skin or hair, which helps to lock in moisture and reduce frizz.
