A Glimpse into the Future Hair Care Challenge

Recalling my days at P&G, I am reminded of a time when Japan held the reigns of hair care trends, setting the stage for innovative products that would shape the industry. It was an era of exciting discoveries and pioneering ventures, one of which was the launch of the scalp care mask by Head & Shoulders Professional line in 2010. It was an innovation that addressed the root cause of hair concerns, emphasizing the importance of a healthy scalp for lustrous and beautiful hair. The success of this product showcased Asian prowess in leading the way for scalp-focused hair care solutions.

As I reflect on those memories, I am enthralled by the continuous evolution of scalp and hair trends, particularly the recent surge in the demand for natural ingredient hair care. Brands like Aveda have emerged as leaders in this movement, revolutionizing the way we approach hair care. Let us embark on a journey through the changing landscape of scalp and hair trends, fueled by my personal experience and the rise of natural ingredient brands.

The Evolution of Scalp and Hair Trends:

Over the years, scalp and hair care trends have evolved in response to changing consumer demands and emerging scientific discoveries. Today, the focus has shifted towards harnessing the power of natural ingredients in hair care formulations. Aveda, a leading brand in this realm, has spearheaded the movement by emphasizing plant-based solutions that deliver exceptional results while promoting sustainability. Aveda's commitment to natural ingredient hair care has resonated with consumers worldwide, inspiring other brands to follow suit.

Another notable player is Briogeo, which blends clean and natural ingredients to create hair care products tailored to specific hair concerns. They have elevated the natural ingredient hair care trend, offering a diverse range of products that cater to various hair types and needs.

Based on future hair care market research, it is predicted by 2028, the Asian hair care market will increase by 6.2%.  With more restricted regulation of beauty care, opportunities and challenges are co-existing at same time. The emerging brand experienced a significant surge, launching based on solid clinical data. LumosMax, founded by one of my P&G alumni, is among these brands. They offer an innovative scalp treatment with a built-in massager, providing exclusive active ingredient penetration to activate the hair's self-growth mechanism.With LumosMax's focus on research and innovation, through a combination of clinical data, advanced technology, and targeted formulation supported by a trusted P&G alumni, they have gained consumer trust in the Asian market. 

As we journey through the evolving landscape of scalp and hair trends, it becomes evident that natural ingredient hair care has taken center stage. Brands like Aveda, LumosMax and Briogeo are leading the charge, inspiring a wave of conscious consumers seeking healthier and more sustainable hair care options. The industry continues to embrace the power of nature, crafting formulations that harmonize science and botanical wisdom.
