Black Beer 95% Shampoo is a shampoo from by:OUR, aimed at fine hair, straight hair and wavy hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on protein & strength, oil control and moisture. The ingredients doing most of that work are Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Polyquaternium-10. The list runs to 69 ingredients, 25 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.
It cleanses with Sodium Laureth Sulfate, a sulfate detergent — effective on oil and product, and the thing people move away from when colour fades fast or the lengths feel stripped. It is buffered with Cocamidopropyl Betaine, which softens that considerably.
The formula reads as lightweight: humectants lead and there is little in the way of heavy oil or silicone, so it should not weigh fine hair down. There are no silicones in the list. Protein outweighs the moisturising ingredients, which is what damaged hair usually wants and what hair already stiff with protein usually does not.
This is a protein-heavy formula, built on Arginine, Hydrolyzed Oat Protein, Hydrolyzed SOY Protein and Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein. Protein reinforces a damaged cortex, which is why bleached and high-porosity hair reaches for it — and why hair that is not damaged can end up feeling brittle after too much of it.
For the scalp itself the formula carries Salicylic Acid, Panthenol and Niacinamide. A sensitive or easily irritated scalp may want something milder — the detergent here is the strong kind.
A few ingredients here stay on the hair between washes (Polyquaternium-10, Theobroma Cacao Extract and Polyquaternium-7), which is worth knowing if you wash rarely or use a mild shampoo.
It is the first step of a wash: it goes on wet hair before anything else. Use as normal shampoo
Nothing in this formula is aimed at volume / lightweight, color protection and shine — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.

No. It cleanses with Sodium Laureth Sulfate, which is a sulfate detergent.
Yes. There are no silicones in the ingredient list.
No — the formula contains a sulfate detergent, which the method excludes.
