Questions
Frequently asked questions
Delivery, returns, stock and privacy. Short answers, no run around.
The questions we actually get asked. If yours is not here, the contact form is at the bottom and a person reads it.
Orders
Do I need an account to order?
No. Checkout works without one. You get an order confirmation by email and that email is your receipt and your tax invoice.
How do I know my order went through?
You get a confirmation email with an order number within a few minutes. If it has not arrived, check the junk folder before you worry, then send us the email address you used and we will find it.
Can I change or cancel an order?
If it has not been packed, yes. Message us straight away with the order number. Once the label is printed we cannot pull it back, and it becomes a return instead.
Can I add something to an order I just placed?
We cannot merge orders after the fact. Place the second order and message us the two order numbers, and if they have not shipped we will pack them together and refund the extra delivery.
Is payment taken on this site?
Not yet. Card payments are not switched on. You place the order, we record it, then we email you to confirm stock and arrange payment before anything is dispatched. Nothing is charged on this site today.
Delivery
How much is delivery?
Free standard on orders over $99. Under that it is a flat $9.95. Express is $14.95 on any order and is never free.
How fast is it?
Orders placed before 12pm AEST on a business day go out the same day. Standard is usually 2 to 5 business days to a metro address and 3 to 8 to a regional one. Express is next business day inside the Australia Post express network.
Do you ship to PO boxes and parcel lockers?
Yes, both, on standard and express.
Do you ship overseas?
No. Australia only at the moment.
Why is my order taking longer to reach WA or NT?
Aerosols, some nail products and most fragrances cannot fly. They go by road, and road freight to the west and the north adds days. If your order contains an aerosol, that is almost always the reason.
My tracking has not moved. What now?
Scans lag parcels, so give it a business day. If it has been still for 5 business days, contact us with the order number and we will open an investigation with the carrier.
Returns and refunds
What is the returns window?
30 days from delivery, on anything unopened and unused with the seal intact.
Can I return something I have opened?
Not on change of mind. Opened cosmetics, haircare, skincare, brushes and applicators cannot be resold, so they cannot come back for hygiene reasons. Faulty products are a separate case and are always covered.
Who pays return postage?
You do on a change of mind return. We do when the item is faulty, damaged in transit, or not what you ordered.
How long does a refund take?
We process it within 5 business days of the parcel reaching us. Your bank usually adds a couple more days before it shows.
Something arrived broken. What do I do?
Photograph the box and the contents before unpacking further and send us the photos the same day. We replace or refund and we cover the postage.
Products
Are these genuine salon products?
Yes. Everything is bought through authorised Australian distribution, sealed, in date, with batch codes intact. We do not deal in grey market stock.
Why is the pack different to the one I bought last time?
Brands redesign packaging constantly and often run two designs at once through a changeover. The formula and the size are what matter, and both are on the product page.
Can you tell me which product to use on my hair?
We can tell you what the brand says a product is for and we can point you at the ingredient list. We are not stylists or dermatologists, and we will not pretend otherwise. For anything medical, see a professional.
Something is out of stock. Will it come back?
Usually yes. Use the notify option on the product page and you get one email when it is back, with no marketing attached.
Do you sell trade or back bar sizes?
No. We sell retail to the public. Trade pricing and salon only colour lines come from the brand distributor.
Privacy and security
What do you do with my details?
We use them to fulfil your order and answer your messages. We do not sell them and we do not pass them to advertisers. The full detail is in the privacy policy.
Do you track me around the internet?
No. This site runs no third party analytics, no advertising pixels and no tracking cookies. Your cart is stored in your own browser.
How do I unsubscribe from emails?
Every marketing email has an unsubscribe link, and it works on the first click. Order emails are transactional and keep coming while the order is live.
Longer answers live on the shipping page and the returns page.
