United Arab Emirates (UAE) Hair Extension and Wigs Market Overview, 2028

Hair extensions and wigs have been a part of the cultural history of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for centuries. In traditional Arab culture, hair has been considered an important aspect of beauty, and women have adorned their hair with various accessories, including henna and beads. In ancient times, hair extensions were made from natural materials such as horsehair and human hair. Women would use these extensions to add length and volume to their hair and to create elaborate braids and hairstyles. As trade routes opened up between the UAE and other regions of the world, hair extensions and wigs made from different materials became more widely available. Wealthy women would import hair extensions made from human hair or horsehair from other regions to add length and volume to their hair. One reason for the continued popularity of hair extensions and wigs in the UAE is the hot and dry climate, which can be harsh on natural hair. Hair extensions and wigs can protect natural hair from damage and reduce the need for frequent styling and heat treatments.
