Market Trends of India Hair Care and Styling Products Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the India Hair Care & Styling Products Market according to our research experts:
Increasing Demand for Organic and Herbal Hair Care Products
- India is known for its use of ayurvedic and herbal ingredients in different medicines and products. Consumers are aware of the advantages of using herbal substances in haircare products. Therefore, it is more common for hair care products to contain herbal and natural ingredients. Increasing usage of organic and herbal hair care products such as olive oil-based shampoos, oil, conditioners, hair gels, and others have paved the way for strong market growth over the long run.
- Additionally, governments have restricted some chemicals from being used in manufacturing hair care products, such as ammonia in hair color. This, in turn, has created a pathway and a blueprint for organic manufacturers to enter the hair care business with full force. From a consumer standpoint, increasing inclination and awareness of organic and herbal hair care products over synthetic products is anticipated to create ample opportunities for organic hair care stakeholders.
- For instance, in January 2021, Emmbros Overseas, one of the fastest-growing beauty and personal care companies, launched its premium hair care range " Go Range" under the St. Botanica brand. The products are made from naturally derived ingredients and essential botanical extracts.
