Shampoos are made by combining different components including Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamide MEA, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Dimethicone, and much more.

In addition, these products are added into hair shampoos for multiple jobs such as Cosurfactant for lathering, Pearling agent, and cleansing agent, etc. They function as cleansing or foaming agents, removing pollutants from the hair. The shampoo contains chemicals that are comparable to those found in soap. Shampoo components, on the other hand, are designed to be less harmful on hair and preserve the outer layer from damage.

Moreover, manufacturers nowadays, are introducing a wide range of shampoos that can be used for multiple purposes. This broad line of shampoos is being rolled out in order to fulfill the diversified and evolving demands of customers for products varying in accordance with their hair-related requirements. For instance, shampoos for thickening of hair, shampoos treating greasy hair, clarifying shampoos that are being used to remove other hair styling products such as gel, spray, and wax.

These factors would play a major role in driving the growth of the hair shampoo market across the world.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The diffusion of the novel coronavirus is identified as the origin of the most demolished state of all the primary, secondary, and tertiary occupations, in decades. The COVID-19 delivered its impact to every part of the world and its economies. Consumer’s interest in natural ingredient-based hair shampoo products grew as a result of the rampant infection. Due to the risk of infection on the scalp and hair, a majority of customers avoided buying artificial ingredient and preservative-based hair shampoo products prior to the beginning of the pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted the demand for more important products in the short term, wherein people have started spending less on personal grooming products like shampoo. Consumers are opting for more DIY at-home products as a result of the closure of numerous retail shops, which has resulted in a negative growth rate. However, sales have increased as a result of the shift to the online channel and other unlock efforts.

Market Growth Factors:

Due to the rising diseases and problems regarding hair, the consumers’ demand for products that individually emphasize the specific hair care problem, is continuously increasing. In response to this, hair care product manufacturers are now expanding their portfolios with specific problem-oriented products in order to meet the consumers’ demand.

The demand for hair shampoos is expediting across the world along with that, companies are also determined to meet the requirements of their customers. However, this increased demand is becoming a reason for the increasing number of counterfeit products that include harmful ingredients in their products. In addition, Hair cleansers containing hazardous substances that claim to have desired results and are available at a reduced cost have resulted in a number of negative consequences on the scalp and hair growth.
