An Overview of the German Hair Colourants Market

Now that Germany is out of the woods when it comes to pandemic-related restriction, German consumers have more incentives to colour their hair as they return to socialising opportunities and less working from home. Mintel’s Germany hair colour market analysis shows that despite the cost of living crisis, brand-loyal consumers protect the category from trading down.

The German hair colourants market will be characterised by a balance between consumers using at-home colourants and those visiting salons, thus levelling out value sales.

Germany Hair Colour Market Analysis: What Consumers Want and Why

  • The Impact of Inflation on the German Hair Colourants Market: As financial pressures grow, brands can position at-home hair colourants as an affordable alternative to salon treatments. However, consumers might scale back on non-essential spending, with 49% of German consumers planning to buy more private label products.
  • Hair Colour Trends in Germany: Brands can retain consumer engagement through added hair strength and scalp care benefits or catering to specific hair types, as 38% of users in Germany are interested in products that strengthen their hair. Collaboration with professionals and picking up trends from haircare, like skinification can also help steady the Germany hair colourants market size.
  • Sustainability & Hair Colourants in Germany: Consumers will increasingly expect brands to adapt their formulations and packaging to minimise environmental impact. 34% of German consumers think that brands should reduce the environmental impact of their production process in order to be sustainable. However, efficacy outranks sustainability as a purchase driver with 32% of users prioritising long lasting claims. The key will be to provide sustainable alternatives without compromising on products’ functionality.

Hair Colour Market Forecast Germany

  • Brands can breathe new life into the category by encouraging experimentation with temporary hair colourants and convince with easy-to-use formulas.
  • Over the next two years, the German hair colourants market will see more products inspired by hair and scalp care.

What goes into a Mintel Market Intelligence Report?

Curious about how a Market Intelligence report comes together? We like to think of it as building a detailed puzzle. We start with individual pieces: data from consumers, market statistics, industry trends, and online conversations. Then our expert analysts add world-class human insight and industry knowledge. The pieces are assembled to reveal a clear, comprehensive picture of a market.

The Four Pillars of Our Research

We use a combination of four main research methods when creating our reports, each adding a valuable perspective:

  • Consumer Research: Direct surveys with real people, giving us clear, current insights into what people think and do.
  • Desk Research: In-depth review of trusted data sources. We use this rich database, plus powerful internal tools that track new products and market sizes, to detect trends and guide forecasts.
  • Trade Research: Insights from conversations with industry experts. Their real-world experience helps us understand what’s happening behind the scenes.
  • Brand and Social Media Research: Analysis of online opinions and trends. This lets us spot trends, measure brand sentiment, and capture feedback in real time, adding further depth to our research.

Bringing It All Together

Each of these four pillars provides a different piece of the puzzle. Consumer research tells us what customers think, desk research provides the factual framework, trade research offers an insider’s view, and social media analysis reveals public sentiment.

Our expert analysts are skilled in weaving these diverse data streams together. They apply a range of quantitative and qualitative analysis techniques to uncover the deeper story, connecting the dots to deliver clear, actionable insights. This comprehensive, multi-layered process is how we transform raw data into a market intelligence report you can trust to inform your most important business decisions.

Working in a customer-obsessed organization means that data and insights have to be at our fingertips. Mintel’s reports help us support anecdotes with real quantifiable insights. The summary sections (which I really like) helps save time by giving a birds eye view of the content before spending time combing through the pages.

Our business review discussions are strengthened by the relevancy of the reports to help us better understand our customers. In addition, the customer service received from the team (especially in crunch periods) makes the process of understanding customer behavior even better.

We have such a great working relationship with Mintel on lots of different levels. As an insight partner, they have helped us to develop our business planning in specific categories as well as supporting our creative process but they’ve also been super helpful with facilitating our events in their inspirational offices near St Paul’s.

They’re an innovative company, with a client-focused team that always delivers.

Mintel is really good for getting a handle on a particular category quickly. If we are working on a new business pitch in an area we don’t have much experience in, it’s a brilliant way to get up to speed with what’s going on, what’s changing and what the key trends are in any category.

It’s very rare now that anyone will plough through a 200-page report – that’s why the summaries are really useful. We know they are backed up by a lot of detail, so if you need to go into something in more depth you know the information will be all there for you.

Mintel helps us when we want to know something quickly – it provides fast answers to our questions. If we need to get a view of what’s going on in a particular market it’s very useful.

When carrying out background research, I find Mintel an excellent starting point.

The fact that it covers so many markets is a big plus for me– instead of having to buy specialist products in each area we are interested in, especially when we only require a brief view on a particular market, we can go to Mintel for help as a one-stop shop. I find Mintel a useful and valuable resource.

Ben Zeidler, Director - Research and Analytics, Tenth Wave

We’ve found it so useful working more closely with Mintel. They helped support our recent flagship event for our top suppliers by providing a really unique viewpoint on the future of online retailing.

Nick Carroll from their Retail Team was also an excellent panelist, sharing useful and actionable consumer insights. We definitely look forward to working with Mintel again on future projects.
