The Synthetic Hair market remained relatively unscathed for many years even during the recession, while other industries faltered, and since then Black hair-care has seen moderate but steady growth. All product categories within the market have factored into the industry’s overall growth, except for relaxer sales, which, since 2008 have declined.

Interestingly though, despite the growing move from relaxed hair to hair that is not chemically treated (human hair), sales of weaves and wigs has experienced growth. Mintel reports “Nearly 6 out of 10 Black consumers wear a wig, weave or extensions, which enables them to switch up their looks.”

Wigs and weaves may still be a part of Black hair culture because hair versatility is somewhat intrinsic to the culture. Many Black women change their hairstyles frequently, no matter the texture. Hair Extensions allow for even larger pool of hairstyle options and when used correctly, can give one’s real hair a break from manipulation and hence mitigate breakage. These synthetic hair are currently treated like normal waste when being disposed, and ending up in lakes, oceans, seas, or stay in soils which affect agricultural growth.
