What removes mineral oil from hair? I am sure this has been gone over before but I am drawing a blank.
Does it need SLS or us loo poo or cowash enough to remove?

Does it build up like silicones ? Try to figure out the difference between pluses of using this vs cones. For me ease of removal is most Important.

Mineral oil washes out the next time you shampoo your hair. Never had any trouble with it. You only use very few drops (I use 4 drops..but I have very long hair).

I find conditioner removes oils better than shampoo. I have had no problems washing mineral oil out this way and it has never given me build-up.

A harsh sulfate shampoo here (only 2 drops of MO on damp hair are used), but I'm sure it doesn't need something as harsh as that, I just like and need a harsh cleanser because of my SD.

This is my experience also. In fact I started using mineral oil (baby oil) after Madora's Mineral Oil Experiment! I find that it washes out the easiest of all oils. Maybe because it isn't used as a pre-poo deep conditioning, dripping off my head amount like use olive or coconut. Or maybe because it doesn't soak into the hair and it's so light it just washes right out.

I don't have any trouble getting it out. I use conditioner on the length, then shampoo everything.
