I was silicone free for a long time but liberally use them now. I can’t imagine not using them at my length because I do need something to coat my fragile ends and add slip to prevent as much mechanical damage as possible. I use a coney conditioner after washing, then a few drops of mineral oil on my last few inches after the shower. On day 3-7 of my wash cycle I use a detangling spray and a few pumps of a silicone serum and/or Nightblooming oil during my detangling/braiding process in the morning.
