Rise in demand for Chemical-free Products in Mens Grooming Market

Introduction of Mens Grooming Market

The male grooming industry has rapidly expanded in recent years, transitioning from a non-existent market to a multi-billion-dollar industry. Nowadays, men across the globe are embracing various forms of grooming regimes, and the rise of metrosexual men has brought terms like body care, skin care, grooming, and hair care into the male vocabulary.

Rise in demand for chemical-free/ men’s grooming products

The men's grooming industry has experienced a surge in demand for natural, organic, and clean-label products due to increased consumer awareness of the harmful effects of certain chemicals used in grooming products, such as shaving creams. Many men now prefer natural grooming products over chemical-based ones. The demand for safe, natural, organic, and cruelty-free grooming products has risen, leading to premiumization and higher prices of organic men's grooming products. Brands like Jason and Bombay Shaving Company are actively promoting their natural products, with the former launching a range of plant-based grooming products and the latter introducing a new Activated Bamboo Charcoal Face Wash campaign featuring organic ingredients like papaya extracts, pomegranate, and turmeric.

Asia Pacific dominates this market

The male population in urban areas of China and India has shown an increasing interest in grooming, with a focus on personal care, skincare, and cosmetics. The trend is largely driven by Chinese millennials and the younger generation in India, who are exposed to new products and grooming routines through social media platforms. Men's grooming appliances are expected to have a huge potential for growth in China during the forecast period. In India, the rise in disposable incomes and the convenience of e-commerce have contributed to the growth of the men's grooming products market, with various online retail stores selling a wide range of grooming products.
