Mine does too! I just make sure to clarify once a week so they don't build up. I've noticed that products without cones tangle my hair and make it dry and hard to manage.

Personally, I'm a fan. I feel like for frequent washers, silicones aren't a problem.

Cones + Porsche's hair = 
I can use it in conditioners and other products, but it has to be in the middle or end of the list. I would never use a shine serum... my hair doesn't likey.
Cones is short for Silicones. You can tell if something is a silicone if it ends in "cone" dimethicone and cyclomethicone are silicones. They are sort of oily substances that promote shine and help make the cuticle lay down. They can also help to lock moisture in, like an oil, but sometimes it also can cause a nasty build-up problem if over-used.
If you've ever seen fantasia IC hair polisher or maybe the frizz buster serum, that's basically all silicones.

I LOVE products with silicones in them. I clarify once/week (using Redken Cleansing Cream and let it sit on my hair for 10 minutes before rinsing it out) and shampoo daily so I never have had problems with build up.
The most recent silicone product that I have fell in LOVE with is Silicon Mix Capilar Treatment. This stuff is AMAZING boy. My new growth feels so different after using this.

You heard that from a white person/board, right?
For some reason, white hair (naturally straight hair) doesn't respond the same way black hair does if this thread is any indication
Go CONES!

Go CONES!
. My hair does not behave without cones! I think they are good for the hair IMO because they coat the strands, offer a lil' bit of protection and gives hair that silky feel! *cheer* Go CONES, Go!!!

I'm also in the cone family. conditioners with cones and my IC Hair polisher just do it for me

Wish I could be a part of the cone family but my hair hates them! The only serum my hair will tolerate is NTM and even that in tiny doses. Hair polishers and shine serums are out for me. I read labels and quickly put down anything with a cone in the first few ingredients. For me it locks moisture OUT of my strands.
