Hair Grooming Products Market

Hair Grooming Products Market Outlook (2023-2033)

In 2023, the global hair grooming products market is valued at US$ 23.1 billion and is predicted to attain a revenue value of US$ 37.2 billion by the end of 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 4.9% over the next ten years.

Increased awareness about one’s physical appearance and rising spending on personal care products across the world are two prime aspects that are expected to promulgate sales of hair grooming products across the forecast period. Body hair trimmers, beard trimmers, hair care serums, and nose hair trimmers are some of the popular hair grooming products witnessing high demand in the global marketplace.

Increasing disposable income, the growing availability of different types of hair care products, rising demand for organic hair grooming products, changing consumer preferences, a growing number of salons and professional hair care centers, and increasing adoption of hair care products by men are other factors that are anticipated to boost shipments of hair grooming products through 2033.

Increasing investments in the research and development of novel organic hair care products to meet consumer demands and improve functionality are also expected to favour hair grooming product demand in the future. Growing popularity of halal hair care amongst the Muslim population is also expected to create new opportunities for market players over the coming years.

On the flip side, the presence of a high number of products with chemicals is expected to constrain overall market growth in the long run as consumers are now preferring organic products over chemical-based products. The inability of hair grooming product manufacturers to create sustainable and organic products is expected to further hurt hair grooming product sales and impede market potential throughout the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market for hair grooming products over the next ten years and the growth can be ascribed to rising disposable income, changing lifestyle trends, growing spending on personal care, and increasing availability of new hair care and hair grooming products.

Demand for hair grooming products in China is anticipated to be prominent in the APAC region throughout the forecast period owing to high volume sales of hair grooming products, rising disposable income, and the presence of locally manufactured hair care products. India, Japan, Korea, and Indonesia are anticipated to be other decisive markets in this region that new and established hair grooming product vendors could target.
