Reasons To Buy
The consumption of Haircare products in France is at par among male and female categories and it is largely dominated by people in the old age category, who demand Haircare products with age defying properties. Additionally, there has been an increase in demand for natural and organic products.

Consumers have become more selective and exigent while choosing their Haircare products. They are purchasing those products that give them an additional value at the same cost.

Hypermarket & Supermarket chains such as Carrefour dominate the distribution of Haircare products in France. There is an increase in sales of Haircare products through Drug Stores & Pharmacies.

French consumers are brand loyal and do not switch to private label products easily, despite continuing economic hardship. The penetration of private label in the coming years is likely to remain limited due to quality perceptions of the French customers.

The Shampoo category is expected to witness the highest growth rate between 2012 and 2017. One of the reasons for this is the introduction of natural shampoos.
