Global Hair Care Market: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
-
Increased Exposure to Ultra Violet Rays from the Sun –According to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), an analysis of 30 years of satellite data since the mid-1990s revealed a remarkable increase in UV radiation reaching the earth's surface. Ozone depletion remains the main reason for the ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth's surface. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the Antarctic Ozone hole arrived at its maximum area of 9.6 million square miles, roughly the size of North America, on October 7, 2021. According to NOAA, this was the 13th largest area attained by an Antarctic Ozone hole since 1979. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), ultraviolet (UV) rays of wavelengths 254-400 nm induce the degradation of hair protein. Further, according to NCBI, UVB radiation causes hair protein loss while UVA radiation brings about color changes. The increasing threat that UV radiations pose to the health of hair calls for the increased production of effective and innovative hair products with sun-blocking properties.

Adverse Effects of Air Pollution on Hair – It has been observed that human follicle dermal papilla cells (HFDPCs) exposed to diesel particulate and PM10-like dust resulted in a decrease in β-catenin, the protein helping hair growth and responsible for morphogenesis.

Increased Demand for Organic and Natural Products for Personal Care – Lately, consumers' preference has shifted remarkably from chemical-based products to organic and eco-friendly products.

It is estimated that in the U.S., the interest in plant-based shampoo has increased, and there is more than 800 online search for the same every month.
-
Increased Demand for Personalized Products Among Male Consumers – It was estimated in 2021 that more than 25% of men in the U.S. purchased the personal care products of their choice.
