Throughout the pandemic, millions of Europeans suffered devastating emotional stress like watching a loved one die, losing a job, working in life-threatening conditions, and bearing the brunt of violent political unrest that resulted in extreme hair loss conditions. With the growing hair fall issues, there is a surge in demand for hair loss treatment products across the world. There is an increasing awareness that hair loss treatment can help prevent hair loss and regenerate hair growth. Hence the demand is rising for hair loss treatment products globally.
The changing lifestyle coupled with the hectic schedule of consumers is leading to high-stress levels, resulting in frequent hair loss at an earlier age among the young population. This, in turn, is boosting the demand for hair loss treatment products in the region. Moreover, growing disposable income increases purchasing power, and a high emphasis on appearances is also acting as the key driver for the growth of the market. However, the presence of alternative treatment options for hair loss, such as hair transplant surgery, laser, and light-based therapies, are a few restraints for the market.

Prevalence of Higher Hair Loss in European Countries Remains the Major Driving Force
Hair loss has become a pervasive concern among adults, with a majority of them experiencing hair-fall issues with growing age. Male pattern baldness is one of the most common forms of hair loss in men, which typically involves the appearance of a bald spot on the crown of the scalp accompanied by thinning at the temples. In the United Kingdom, about two-thirds of men are eventually likely to be affected by male pattern baldness, which means that about 7.4 million men are losing their hair, as per Men's Health Forum. In addition, with almost half of the men going bald at 50% prevalence, the worldwide phenomenon is most common in the Czech Republic, followed by Spain, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. Nonetheless, 8 out of 10 countries with the most hair-loss issues are European nations.
