Synthèse

The global shampoo market has been growing at a steady rate and is expected to reach 30.69 billion USD by 2024, growing at a CAGR of 3.76% between 2019 and 2024. Demand is driven by growing awareness of hair health and the increasing incidence of hair-related problems aggravated by stress and pollution. Asia-Pacific holds a significant share of the market, dominating with almost a third of global sales. Although the French market has seen a slight decline due to changes in hair-washing habits for health and ecological reasons, dynamic segments such as natural and ultra-premium products are recording strong growth in demand. Major companies such as L'Oréal, Henkel and P&G, as well as large retailers, dominate the market. Exports of shampoos to France outstripped imports with a coverage rate of 260.3% in 2018, indicating the strength of French brands in the international market.

Despite the downward trend in frequency of use, women remain the main consumers of shampoo in France, with a preference for products tailored to specific hair needs. Men's shampoo consumption has fallen less sharply, and they tend to use shampoo slightly more frequently than women. Shampoo variants are increasingly diversified and adapted to different hair types, textures and conditions. In particular, online sales are gaining in popularity, with greater consumer satisfaction compared to traditional retail channels, indicating a possible shift in consumer buying behavior towards e-commerce platforms in the future.

changing consumer preferences and trends in the shampoo market

In the dynamic landscape of the shampoo market, several key consumer trends and behaviors emerge from the analysis. Women, traditionally the main consumers of shampoo, are seeing their frequency of use decline. This change is due to a growing awareness of the damage that excessive hair washing can cause, and the trend towards a more sustainable lifestyle. Despite this trend, women still represent a significant segment of the shampoo market, with 15 to 20 million of them using shampoo 2 to 3 times a week. Men, meanwhile, are also reducing the frequency of their hair washes, but at a slower pace than women: 10 to 15 million men use shampoo for normal hair, and 5 to 10 million opt for anti-dandruff products. The market itself is characterized by the strong presence of heavyweights such as L'Oréal, which dominates a considerable share of the market with a diversified brand portfolio.

Despite the general decline in shampoo market volume in France, demand for natural products and the ultra-premium segment is on the rise. These segments offer a lucrative opportunity for market players to offset the stagnation of the traditional market. Distribution channels are also evolving. While supermarkets and hypermarkets dominate with 83% of sales, online retailing is gaining ground. The e-commerce space shows high consumer satisfaction, with over 50% of consumers ordering hair care products online. In terms of offering, traditional supermarket brands are continually being challenged by natural and ultra-premium products that appeal to environmentally conscious consumers and those seeking luxury in personal care. These products, often available in perfumeries or parapharmacies, command higher prices and are seen as a key growth driver in the market.

Overall, the French shampoo market is in transition, with consumer preferences shifting towards more sustainable, higher-value products. Brands able to adapt to these new trends, focus on natural ingredients and take advantage of the growth of e-commerce will benefit from this evolving landscape.

Key players in the global shampoo market

The shampoo market features several major players and a number of emerging competitors characterized by niche and differentiated product offerings. The landscape is dominated by well-known brands that have become synonymous with hair care.

  • Groupe L'Oréal - L'Oréal is the undisputed market leader in shampoos, with a broad portfolio of brands. Brands such as Elseve, Ultra Doux by Garnier, Fructis and Dop are flagship brands that offer a wide range of hair care products and have acquired a solid consumer base worldwide.

Sommaire et extraits

1 Market overview

1.1 Definitions and scope of study

Shampoo is a hair care product, generally in the form of a viscous liquid, used for cleansing the hair. Most of the time, these products are prepared by coupling a surfactant - a surfactant that enables liquids to be washed and emulsified with water - with a co-surfactant, which reinforces the action of the main surfactant.

Special shampoos are also available for people with dandruff, color-treated hair, certain hair types, gluten or wheat allergies , or a preference for natural products.

The global shampoo market is expected to grow at a rapid rate of 2.6% per year to 2027 due to the increasing prevalence of hair-related disorders such as dandruff, hair loss, greasy hair, dry hair, itching and many others. These disorders are reinforced by more stressful lifestyles and more polluted environments. Asia-Pacific is the dominant region for shampoos, with almost a third of the global market. In France, the sector is less buoyant, with a slow decline in the market over the last two or three years.

However, there are several very dynamic segments in the French shampoo market. Demand for natural products and ultra-premiums is rising sharply, and these can provide interesting leverage for players wishing to compensate for declining market volumes.

The main players in this market are FMCG groups such as L'Oréal, Henkel and P&G, and retailers such as Leclerc, Carrefour and Intermarché.
