Increasing awareness about personal grooming, rising spending on individual hygiene and growing need to enhance aesthetic appeal, are major factors driving the growth of the market.

Growing adoption of hair removal products by men is also positively affecting market growth.

The emergence of metrosexual culture led to a rise in the number of men focusing on personal grooming. Considering this, key players are manufacturing customized products for men and women separately. For example, Emjoi introduced Emagine Epilator inclusively designed for men. This epilator is fitted with 72 tweezers apart from trimming and shaving features.

Electronics devices are projected to witness the fastest growth rate with a CAGR of 6.0% throughout the forecast years. The rising demand for convenient grooming products coupled with the introduction of technically advanced products is driving the demand for this segment. Epilators are getting popular among both men and women as they provide quick hair removal solutions.

Among the end-user segment, women held the largest hair removal products market share, in 2018. The increasing number of working women and rising expenditure on personal hygiene are supplementing the growth of this segment. However, the men segment is anticipated to grow faster at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period.

Companies are focusing on the launch of products that are suitable for different skin types. For example, Veet, offered by Reckitt Benckiser company, is hair removal cream ideal for dry and sensitive skin.
