TERMS OF SALE

Though we endeavour to maintain a high level of customer satisfaction across all our services; because we rely on a third party to deliver our goods, inevitably there may be delays in postage in the minority of cases. In these events we will do our very best to keep you informed and get your order delivered as quickly as possible. 

DELIVERY

We ship orders using Royal Mail, USPS, Fedex, DPD and DHL. All orders require mandatory processing times within our delivery times of one to five business days on standard products for UK deliveries. Once you have successfully placed your order, order processing will automatically begin thirty minutes thereafter. Once processing has begun, orders cannot be changed nor modified.

Shipping confirmation and tracking information is available via email as soon as your order is processed and shipped.  We do advise that all orders are placed at least a week in advance to avoid unforeseen delays.

In the event of damage or loss, the customer is responsible for getting in touch with the courier directly and keeping us updated if help is needed from us the match on. We advise to get in touch with no later than two weeks past the delivery date if your item has not arrived or arrived in a damaged condition In order to allow us adequate time to raise a complaint and compensation claim with the courier.

The delivery options we offer within the UK for non customised items are as follows:

• Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed™ - This service is better recommended as it guarantees next day delivery before 1pm (from the date we dispatch). This service also provides full online tracking meaning customers are able to see exactly when and where your order was posted, all the locations in between (whilst in Royal Mail's transit), and also delivery confirmation once signed for by the recipient. Royal Mail's Special Delivery received will also cover the sender/ recipient compensation cover up to 500 GBP in the event of loss or damage to your parcel which is ideal for valuable items.

Delivery times concerning Custom made/ Pre-Order items will be applicable per product and will be stated per product page. Your chosen shipment label will be used to ship customised products irrespective of time frames to allow your chosen cover value.

RETURNS

We exercise a very strict quality control process to ensure that our clients receive only the best quality hair. There are no returns or exchanges upon items which have not been returned to our specified returns address (different from our mailing address) and not without an initial assessment. Unauthorised returns will be refused and kept until a new shipping fee to the original address on the receipt has been paid.

We can only accept the item back for a return and so long as its its successfully returned back to us within 14 days of the date your order was delivered.

The item(s) also needs to remain in pristine condition, with the curl pattern undisturbed/ pulled - allowing it to be fit for resale. The item(s) also needs to remain in pristine condition, with the curl pattern undisturbed/ pulled - allowing it to be fit for resale. We will not accept any returns or exchanges of any products where the seal holding the hair together has been untied or cut off. In the specific case of items containing lace i.e. our Wig Collection, Closure Collection or Frontal Collection, they will not be accepted for returns or exchanges if they have been worn, styled, cut (lace or hair), or had products or modifications have been applied to them such as glue, hair products, colouring, customisation of the hairline or the bleaching of knots.

In a case where any of the conditions above are not met, we reserve the right to refuse an return. Custom products, coloured jobs and installation services are non-refundable.

Alternatively If, for any reason you are unhappy due to the defect of your product(s) purchased, after assessment we will agree to a full refund or exchange for another product of an equal value.

All returns shipping and handling costs will be at the customer's expense therefore we suggest sending through a courier that provides tracking information and delivery confirmation since we are not responsible for loss or damage of parcels. We must receive the merchandise before an exchange/ refund can be made.

A return should take no longer than 7-10 working days to be processed back with us and refunded to your account. This includes transit time to the warehouse and processing times with your chosen payment method.

An exchange processing time will be dependant on the item requested for exchange and inventory levels against standard or pre-order items.

Order cancellations

Once payment has been made, customers have a thirty minute window to modify or cancel their orders. After this time frame, orders cannot be cancelled as your order would have already started processing with our suppliers/ fulfilment warehouse. Please contact us as soon as possible if any changes needed to be made but this cannot be guaranteed as we begin processing 30 minutes after your order has been confirmed. Our delivery team also fulfil and dispatch orders as quickly as possible and cannot guarantee your order can be modified after confirmation.

If you would like to cancel your order before we have begun processing / fulfilling your order, this can be cancelled at no extra charge for an exchange to the original amount paid or alternatively a refund minus any non-refundable transaction fees.

If our suppliers have already begun processing a custom pre-order, any cancellation would be subject to a 15% fee against the item as we also incur the same costs.

Exchange / Store Credit

If you would prefer an exchange due to a change of mind/preference, this may also be honored within 14 days of receipt so long as the original item is still in pristine condition with the hair texture/ curl pattern unpulled/ undisturbed and in it's original packaging and can be exchanged for another product of equal value or can be returned in lieu for full store credit to its value within 14 days of purchase. A mandatory new postage fee will have to be paid.

In line with the above, we'll be happy to exchange your order to the same value or price differenced or alternatively issue you with a credit note for the value of your order minus postage cost to be used within 12 months . Please also note that your new / exchanged order will be subject to a new shipping cost of £8.55 payable.

 Refund / Store Credit

For unwanted/ change of mind orders requesting a full/ partial refund back to an original payment method rather than store credit or exchange, such orders will need to be raised within 14 days of receipt and will also be subjected to a payment processing fee of 4% as these fees are also not refunded back to us from the chosen payment processor selected at checkout. Postage fees will also be deducted before a refund is authorised.

If you would prefer store credit to returns for change of preference, this will be valued in full to be used within 12 months.
