Hair Wig Market Forecast to 2030 - Global Analysis by Type (Human Hair and Synthetic Hair); By End User (Men and Women); By Distribution Channel (Specialty Stores, Online Retail, and Others)
The hair wig market is expected to grow from US$ 3.65 billion in 2022 to US$ 5.10 billion by 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2022 to 2030.
The global hair wig market is growing rapidly due to the increasing demand for trending hair products such as wigs and the rising prevalence of hair loss issues due to aging, stressful schedules, and medical conditions. According to the American Academy of Dermatology Association, the common cause of hair loss is hereditary-patterned baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia. In this type of hair loss, hair thinning occurs first, and then total hair loss develops on some areas of the scalp. This condition has affected ~80 million Americans—50 million men and 30 million women. Rising hair loss issues among the global population have driven the demand for hair wig across the globe.
Based on type, the hair wig market is segmented into human hair and synthetic hair. The synthetic hair segment is projected to register the largest share during the forecast period. Synthetic wigs are moderately inexpensive than human hair wigs, and having multiple hairpieces or replacing wigs when one gets tired of the current look is more affordable. They also require little maintenance. However, synthetic wigs cannot be straightened or curled with heated styling tools unless it is a precisely designed heat friendly synthetic wig. In addition, the availability of a wide variety of colors, styles, and lengths; and less application time of synthetic hair wigs fuel the demand for synthetic hair wigs. All these factors positively influence the hair wig market growth for the synthetic hair segment.
By geography, the hair wig market is primarily segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), the Middle East & Africa (MEA), and South & Central America.
