Hair Treatment Repeat Purchase
Repeat or Retreat?
A leading hair treatment brand, known for its strong first-time conversion, wanted to understand what happened next. The goal- turning first-time buyers into repeat customers. Winning a first purchase is one thing but does it translate into lasting loyalty?

Summary
How did Bintix help answer that question?
The brand needed clarity on what was happening after the first purchase. Bintix studied the repeat consumption behaviour of households over time. The study set out to answer three critical questions:
- How many households returned to the category after their first purchase
- How long they took to buy again
- How this repeat behaviour compared with a leading competitor
the Challenge
Proving That Trial Was Actually Working
Most brands track sales, not the households behind them, so a dip or rise in numbers rarely reveals whether the same buyers are returning. Bintix needed to prove that strong first-time conversion was translating into loyalty, not just repeat sales volume.
our approach
Household Repeat and Retention Analysis
We followed the buying patterns of the same households over time, tracking:
- Repeat and drop-off rates among first-time users
- Time taken to buy the product again
- Consumption levels among retained households
- Performance against a leading competitor
the outcome
Key Findings and Business Actions
01
Repeat Purchase Was the Key Gap
The study confirmed that fewer people returned to the leading brand (26%) than for the competitor (29%), revealing a clear opportunity to convert more first-time buyers into repeat ones.
02
Repeat Cycles Proved Slower Than the Competition
Households took 5.4 months to return to the leading brand versus 4.5 months for the competitor, almost a full month longer between purchases.
03
Retention Emerged as the Growth Priority
The analysis revealed exactly where consumers were dropping off, giving the brand a clear, data-backed starting point to drive stronger re-engagement and sustained consumption.
