Hair coloring is a fashionable trend that can be carried out professionally by a hairdresser or independently at home. Hair coloring is increasingly gaining acceptance among the male population. Men’s hair color is available in various types including permanent and semi-permanent hair color, temporary hair color, and root touch-up.
Market Dynamics
The Global Men’s Hair Color Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.15% during the forecast period 2022-2030. The growing preference for men’s grooming is considered to be one of the major factors for the rising growth of the global men’s hair color market. Additionally, increasing professional salon services for men is driving the market growth. However, side-effects due to the presence of harmful chemicals in hair color are hampering the growth of the market. The global men’s hair color market is estimated to emerge lucrative for the vendors active both in developed and developing economies due to new product launches & increasing demand for organic products and influence of social media and innovative marketing strategies.
Drivers:
The increasing availability of grooming products at organized retail stores is an important factor fueling the sales of men’s hair color. These products were earlier available at selected outlets such as convenience stores, beauty stores, and specific retail stores. A growing customer base has led retail stores, such as supermarkets and hypermarkets, to stock men’s hair color, thereby facilitating the purchase. The high availability of men’s hair color at online stores has also positively affected global sales. Several men’s hair color manufacturers such as Just for Men, Cover Your Gray, and Revlon, among others, has developed customer-friendly web interfaces for their products.
Furthermore, supermarket chains and retailers at the regional and national level are capitalizing on the men’s hair color trend. These retailers are further driving sales by offering free samples to men. Additionally, advertisements and promotional activities for men’s hair color at various retail chains are supporting sales.
Restraint:
There are a handful of harmful ingredients or chemicals present in professional as well as over the counter products that include, resorcinol, ethanolamine (MEA), ammonia, persulfates, parabens, propylene glycol, and metals such as nickel. Some of these ingredients or chemicals can cause serious problems. For instance, resorcinol irritates the skin and interfere with normal hormone production. Propylene glycol is also known to cause dermatitis. Also, hair color consists of dyes, modifiers, antioxidants, and fragrance, in addition to a variety of chemicals existing in slight proportions that impart a specific quality to the hair, such as softening it. Many of the chemicals used in hair color might prove to be toxic to the end user leading to irritation or allergic reactions. Also, there are other damaging chemicals present in hair dye that can cause side-effects such as light tingling, itching and burning, allergic reactions, and blistering and rashes. Thus, the side-effects and allergic reactions caused by some of the chemicals used in hair colors are hampering the growth of the men’s hair color market at the global level.
Opportunities:
The manufacturers are inclined towards launching innovative and new men’s hair color products to increase the consumer base. For instance, in 2017, Hoyu Co., Ltd, launched a men’s hair color named “Men's Bigen One Touch Color.” The company offers three different hair colors under this product portfolio, namely natural brown, dark brown, and natural black. Also, manufacturers such as Indus Valley offers men’s hair color, which is purely derived from the organic & natural sources and toxic chemicals such as ammonia and lead. Also, the increasing trend of organic and vegan beauty products is expected to create an opportunity in the global men’s hair color market.
Challenges:
The global companies are trying to expand their products due to the increasing consumer demand for new and multiple ranges of available colors. Various regulations posed by governments such as Cosmetic Regulation and Food and Drug Administration (FDA), among others, make hair dye creation more difficult. As these regulations limit the number of dyes used in the hair color, manufacturers have to come up with new colors. For instance, in Europe, hair colors are regulated under the Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009/EU. Hence the majority of manufactures tend to use the ingredients specified in Annex III of this regulation. Annex III specifies the list of ingredients which cosmetic products must not contain, to name a few, thioglycolic acid and its salts, ammonia, tosylchloramide sodium (inn), dichloromethane, chlorates of alkali metals, benzyl benzoate, benzyl salicylate, and cinnamyl alcohol, among others.
In the US, regulations are set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the same set of rules is followed by Canada. In Asia-Pacific, the regulations vary from one country to another. In Japan, manufacturing practices are highly influenced by the Japan Hair Color Industry Association, which studies hair dyes’ toxicological data and sets national standards for the industry. Korea has established a positive set of ingredients that can be approved for hair dying. Thus, stringent regulations posed by various government authorities on ingredients used in hair color is expected to challenge the growth of the men’s hair color market.
