Fast growing and prolific, the beauty salon industry is built on products and services that help us look our best. Consumers driven by social media trends have led to the evolution of the concept of grooming and beauty for both males and females. The beauty salon industry can be segmented into hair, skin, nail, cosmetics, perfumes and colognes, deodorants, antiperspirant, feminine cleaning, oral hygiene etc. Skincare has the highest market share. The growth potential of beauty salons depends on a variety of factors including demographics, population growth, and latest beauty techniques. The majority of global premium cosmetics sales is concentrated within the developed markets (mostly the US, Japan, and France) but cosmetic markets of the developing countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China) have been growing very fast and accounted for approximately 25% of the market. Small salons contribute heavily to the industry while the 50 largest companies draw just 15% of overall revenue. With a growing market, India is witnessing increased number of international players. The market which was earlier women-centric has started concentrating on male grooming as well, resulting in a large number of unisex salons, opening opportunities for business expansions in the segment. Lakme Beauty Salons, Jawed Habib Hair & Beauty, and L'oreal are some of the leading players in the market.
