Millennials and Gen Z consumers are heavily engaged in hair care-often studying tutorials to perfect their hair skills. A combination of on-the-go convenience and salon performance is key.” Products have to deliver results quickly and accurately,” says Robin Linsley, Vice President of Marketing for Conair. “This generation has high expectations that extend beyond functionality.

Also, they have little patience for products that don’t deliver-and frequently broadcast their disappointment or approval.

Raised on chargeable gadgets, they’re accustomed to accessing whatever they need whenever they want it-untethered to an outlet. Styling tools, which help consumers achieve these trendy styles, are popular with all ages, but the category receives an extra boost from on-the-go Millennials and Gen Z.

Emerging hairstyles, especially beachy waves and soft, loose curls are propelling sales. Sales of styling tools are heating up, outpacing volume gains across the entire hair care category, according to Nielsen data.
