Our hair does not "shine". The products that we put on it will give the illusion of shine (the cones in products do this).

Oil sheen has mineral oil in it which is one of the main ingredients that cause dullness in our hair.

Try clarifying your hair first and then deep conditionining. The -cones in the silicon mix will then encase your strands and lock in the moisture. It will give you the shine you are looking for.

I think the silicone mix has mineral oil in it as well?

whoever said that our hair doesn't "shine"? If you get it straight enought, will it not reflect light and "shine"? You can get shine with light oils on your hair (well I know I can) I was a little confused by that statement...

To my knowledge, based on what I have read and what I have observed on my head our hair does not have the tendency to be naturally shiney. It more so sheens, for lack of a better word. Applying products can make it "appear shiney." Once those products have been taken off by shampooing, sunlight, wind, etc, our hair will look dull again.

Gotcha, I think also will her constantly applying the oil sheen, it might have caused her to have buildup.
