According to National Health Statistics data from 2022, about 8 million women in the United Kingdom experience hair loss. Due to this, demand for organic/natural products for personal grooming has also become one of the primary concerns for individuals. However, rising awareness regarding the potential side effects of hair care products is restraining market growth.

Frequent use of these products causes hair loss, dry hair, rough hair, etc. to protect against such damage, hair care products are being used in the United Kingdom. For instance, in February 2021, Hankel Corporation launched Gliss Kur Color Perfector, A Repair & Colour Shine Shampoo, which protects hair color up to 40 washes. Thus, the market is expected to grow over the long term because of all the above reasons.
