Current Natural Hair Care Industry Statistics
The natural hair care industry has expanded tremendously over the last five years. Geared toward people with natural curls, curly hair care products look to style curls of varying textures. Research and development teams have started to test products at curl levels from 1 to 5 as well as a, b, and c. The change means better product availability since formulas are safe for all hair types, including very kinky and curly textures.
Brands have benefitted tenfold from making more inclusive product lines. According to Nielsen, hair care is one of the top spending categories for black Americans. Annually, $2.29 billion is spent on hair care—more than double the amount spent on skin care. Most notably, Nielsen surveyed respondents about current beauty offerings for people of color. A total of 72 percent felt a significant gap in beauty products and services for black consumers, but with more representative brands and products emerging, this gap is progressively decreasing.
Natural Hair Care Market Projections
In October 2022, the Natural Hair Care Products Global Market Report 2022 was released by the marketing agency Reportlinker. Based on the report, the global natural hair product market has an anticipated growth of $9.89 billion in 2022 to $12.18 billion by 2026. The figures reflect a compound annual growth rate of 5.4 percent.
Research and development teams will continue to focus on products with clean, safe, and effective ingredients. Currently, 58 percent of ethnic hair products contain at least one toxic component, which yields there’s a call for healthier formulations.
