Cetearyl Alcohol is a fatty alcohol used as an emollient , emulsifier, thickener, and carrying agent  for other ingredients. It's not a bad alcohol. Dimethiconol is a silicone. It is not soluble in water. Glycerin is a Humectant. It attracts water to the hair to keep the moisture content high. Panthenol is also a humectant. Methylchloroisothiazolinone is a preservative.
I used http://naturallycurly2.com/curlscene/entry.php?id=326&en trytype=articles to find out what the ingredients were.

It's fine unless you don't use silicones. Alcohol denat is really bad. That's the drying alcohol. Phenoxyethanol is another preservative. I don't know what isopropylparaben is.

iso whatever is a paraben. some people avoid it cos there's a rumour going around that it causes cancer but there's no proof. i use products with parabens so i dont care. and the manufacturesrs put bad stuff int heir hair products because they're probably cheap and they dont give a sh*t about what we put in our hair. just wanna make money
