Market Definition
A hair relaxer is a type of cream or lotion which is generally used by many people with very curly hair or tight curls. This makes hair easier to straighten and chemically "relaxing" the natural curls. The active agent is generally a strong alkali, although in some formulations of hair relaxer used formaldehyde or ammonium thioglycolate.
Hair Relaxer Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rising demand of thio relaxer
The demand for the thio relaxer increases among consumers due to growing preference for straight hair, increasing demand for high-quality and innovative hair products, and high usage of thio relaxers for permanent waving. Thio is one the most generally used hair relaxer with ATG or ammonium thioglycolate and active ingredients. These relaxers are thicker with higher viscosity and have moderate pH, making its application easier. Thus, the surging demand of thio relaxer is anticipated to drive the market's growth rate.
- Increasing demand of hair relaxer among women
One major factor that increases the demand for the hair relaxer among women with curly hair is that the relaxing treatment of hair relaxer is to get rid of strong curls and frizz. The process is easy to use hair relaxer and can be done in around 15-20 minutes with the help of a well-trained haircare professional.

Furthermore, hair relaxers are gaining popularity among millennials owing to models, social media influencers, and actors because they continuously try different hairstyles.
Opportunities
- Increasing demand for convenient hair relaxer

The increasing adoption of home grooming and high inclination toward hair relaxers with moderate and less harmful chemicals are expected to open new and ample opportunities for emerging and leading market players in the hair relaxer market. As a result, market players greatly invest in developing new and innovative products to deal with increasing consumer demand.
- Rise in the consumer preference toward natural products
Upsurge in the consumer preference towards the natural products has led to the transformation of the hair care products. Now, natural products are more preferred by the consumers; hence, manufacturers are also focusing on advertising, producing and labelling natural hair care products.

This is also anticipated to hinder overall growth of the market at some certain extent.
