The rising adoption of luxurious hair care products for providing enhanced nourishment and the increasing emergence of e-commerce platforms for the sale of personal care products is expected to drive the market growth.

The market is expected to gain momentum from 2021 due to the rising adoption of these hair care products among the young population. Moreover, marketing strategies like brand stretching and favorable initiatives undertaken by governing bodies are anticipated to propel market growth.

In 2019 the shampoos product segment held the dominant share of around 31.4% across the global luxury haircare market. Rising consumer demand towards the adoption of shampoos having organic and natural ingredients is expected to drive a major contribution towards the market growth for this segment.

The product segment of hair coloring is anticipated to register the fastest growth from 2020 to 2027. The shifting trend towards the adoption of at-home hair coloring and treatment is estimated to contribute majorly towards the growth of this segment. Moreover, increasing usage of luxury hair coloring products in the salons is further expected to fuel up the market growth.

Distribution Channel Insights

The segment of specialty stores held the dominant share of around 31.0% across the global market in 2019. This share can be attributed to the rising inclination among consumers for physical verification of the product before making the buying decision. Also, features like a wide product portfolio, expert suggestions, and discounts offered by these stores are anticipated to propel the market growth.

The segment of e-commerce is expected to register the highest CAGR in the upcoming years.

But, the market is witnessing stiff competition due to the emergence of the direct-to-consumer sales channel.

Moreover, shutting down of salons due to the risk of the spread of viruses along with the lack of skilled laborers in these salons is anticipated to hinder the market demand for luxury hair care products.
