Summer, as a season, bursts with business opportunity for the
beauty and wellness industry! New brands in hair are joining
the brigade and the consumer is scouting the market for fresh
hair cuts, care and colour options. It is true that potential
and competition go hand in hand, hence, it is essential for
professionals to stay updated on innovative trends and
techniques. So, what are the top hairstylists suggesting to be 'the'
trend of the season?
On cue arrives the second lead feature, which gives us an insight
into the hair products category. The hair market in India is
going through a major paradigm shift. With consumers ready
to experiment with new products and services, and marketeers
churning out new products at an impressive rate, there is a sense
of excitement in the industry. It gets even better, as reports state
that the category is estimated to grow further – at a CAGR of
17.1% till 2023.
