Is Silicon Mix considered a strong protein?

Just got my order of Silicon Mix in the mail yesterday and I wanna oil rinse followed by SM. Is this a good idea? TIA

Even though it has silk proteins, I thought it was moisturizing. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I agree with you that it's more moisture than protein.

Thank you for your replies. Do you ladies think that an oil rinse will prevent the SM from penetrating the hair?

Can she just add 2 eggs and that infuses the protein into the treatment? This is a question - I have never used Silicon Mix but inquiring minds wanna know

Silicon Mix is like the ORS Replenishing Paks. They have protein, but they're just more of a moisturizing conditioner than protein. I used some silicon mix the other day for my DC along with a little bit of Aphogee EFAs and I had some very soft and luscious hair after rinsing it out. I don't know where I heard it from, but I heard that silicon mix is better when mixed with oils. It sure did alright by me!!

Thank you ladies! Now I can go home and do my thang.

As much as I hate protein, SM is the best! You can't go wrong. It's worked great for me as a deep conditioning. If I need extra moisture, I mix Miss Key 10 en 1 or Lustrasilk Shea Butter Cholesterol Conditioner!

Just have to add. I have yet to try a conditioner as good as Silicon Mix. I mix it with Organic's by Africa Best Hair Mayo. DC, and you have the softest hair on earth....
