It explained how some silicones are not water-soluble.

I use jojoba oil as a sealant instead and my hair retains its natural shape much better than it did when I was using a silicone-laden serum. Also, it's important to note that silicones will not cause build-up if you wash your hair with a sulfate shampoo. If you're doing the sulfate-free thing, then silicones are something you should reconsider, but for most people it won't be a problem.
