Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Silicone buildup (cosmetic, not toxicological) on the Pantene and not on the Redken.
  • We flag Silicone accumulation or scalp buildup and Contamination during storage or use on the Redken and not on the Pantene.
  • Both carry a flag for Fragrance allergens, so neither choice avoids it.
  • The Pantene is aqueous conditioning cream; typical surfactants, silicones, emollients where the Redken is Aqueous conditioning emulsion (water, oils, silicones, polymers), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
