This market research analysis identifies the wide product portfolio and product innovation as one of the primary growth factors for this market. Innovation in terms of product formulation is a major factor driving the sales of hair colors. The use of ingredients such as conditioning agents or oils to reduce the harsh effect of chemicals, ammonia-free formulation, and packaging innovation are some other aspects of product line innovation.
