The Changing Climate Of Black Hair Care: Marketing To Natural Consumers, Jasmin Joseph, Undergraduate Program

McDonough Research Journal

This study is a comprehensive analysis of the black hair care industry and the changes within it as a result of an increase in consumers with “natural hair,” that is, those embracing their natural hair texture as opposed to manipulating it permanently by chemical means.

An often-voiced concern is that such “showrooming” will discourage traditional retailers from providing demand-enhancing sales services.

Counter to this widely used argument, we find …
