CLEANSE THE SCALP

Scalp cleanser searches reflect increased consumer interest in scalp care as a trend.

The Spate Facts: Scalp Cleanser

On average, there are 8.9K searches every month for Scalp Cleanser in the US, which is a low volume in search relative to other hair care products. It's grown by +14.1% in searches since last year. Currently, there are two market leaders: Aveda and Nioxin.

The Spate POV

Buildup on the scalp can block hair follicles, leading to hair loss, which is still up +3.8% YoY after a spike mid-pandemic. Thankfully, incorporating a scalp cleanser into your hair care routine is often all it takes to remove buildup and get your scalp and hair back on track.

The increased focus on scalp care has undoubtedly been accelerated by the skinification of the hair care industry as more and more consumers relate healthy hair with a healthy scalp. It's, therefore, unsurprising that consumers are diving deeper to learn about scalp treatments (+11.1% YoY), scalp serums (+65.0% YoY), and scalp concerns (+6.1% YOY). Existing hair care brands should consider adding scalp care products to their lines.

With other hair products like dry shampoo (+7.9% YoY) and hair mousse (+18.8% YoY) on the rise, brands should consider ways to educate consumers on proper scalp cleansing following a no-wash period or a day of extreme styling.

 

SET FOR SUCCESS

Consumers are showing strong interest in setting powders, across a variety of brands.
