Exchanges: 

Please email help@curlfriendcollective.com if you have any issues during the returns process.

 

ELIGIBILITY FOR RETURNS OR EXCHANGES: 

To be eligible for a return or exchange, the product must be:

  • Unworn, unwashed, and undamaged. Product must be in original condition.  No oils, makeup, products, staining, etc. can be on the product.  
  • Original tags must be attached.
  • Product must be in its original packaging.
  • If an item is returned and not in original condition, store credit will be issued. 
  • Returns must be initiated within 30 days from the delivery date. 
  • We can't accept returns bought on sale, during a promotion or gifts with purchase

Here’s what you need to know for a return or exchange. To make sure everything goes smoothly, please ensure that your product is:

  • Still fresh and unworn, unwashed, and undamaged
  • Cozied up in its original packaging
  • And don't forget, we've got a 30-day window from the delivery date for you to initiate your return or exchange. Thanks for understanding, and we're just an email away to help if you need anything!

As a friendly reminder, we can't be responsible for any damages to an item after it's been used or washed, as we're not able to ensure the proper care once it's in your loving hands. Don't worry, though – our dyed silks are super pigmented, so it's totally normal if you see a tiny bit of color bleeding during the first few washes. To make sure you're treating your silk accessories with the love they deserve, please check out our care instructions. Thanks for understanding, and happy styling! 😊

SHIPPING PROTECTION

There’s no need to wait weeks for claims to be processed by couriers - protect your parcel with a small fee based on your order value and we’ll offer you a replacement right away. 

WHAT WE DEEM AS LOST:

  • Shipment states ‘delivered’ but you have not received it. Depending on where you live, we ask that you allow up to 7 business days for your parcel to be delivered. Sometimes the courier prematurely marks it as delivered and tries a redelivery, it turns up in a secure location at your property or it may be at your neighbours.

  • Your tracking has not updated for 2 weeks from the last updated tracking information.

We reserve the right to class this as a ‘delay’ if there is a high volume of parcels in the network and we are aware of delays, otherwise we will offer a replacement.

WHAT WE DEEM AS DAMAGED:

  • Items arrive damaged in transit - fabric is wet, stained, torn etc.
  • Some of your order is missing due to the box/packet opening in transit 

Please contact us at help@curlfriendcollective.com immediately if your items have arrived damaged or if something is missing. Submit photographic evidence of tampered items.

WHAT WE DO NOT COVER:

  • Missing parcels or redelivery fees due to incorrect address information provided by you
  • Delays in transit 
  • Order marked as unfulfilled or unshipped. This may be due to inventory issues, pre orders, or dispatch delays.
  • Orders stuck in customs - we cannot be held responsible for customs delays. Please get in touch with your chosen courier and pay required customs fees. If you refuse customs payments, we are not liable for any return to sender fees and these will be deducted from your refund.
  • Items that are returned to us for a refund or exchange that are not in a re-salable condition (includes signs of use).
  • If you requested items to be left outside your property and they go missing - this waives the right to any claim as per carrier terms and conditions.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR CLAIM:

If your parcel is lost or damaged, please contact us on help@curlfriendcollective.com with your name and order #, a member of our customer service team will assist you within 1-3 working days. What to include in your claim: 

  • Subject line: CLAIM for order #12345
  • Description of your issue
  • Photo evidence of damage

We will continue to track your parcel and should it appear, we request it be sent back to us at our expense.

By selecting shipping protection, you agree to these terms. 

We ask that you do not get in touch with use regarding a missing parcel until the allotted time has passed for it to be deemed as lost.

This is our in-house protection policy. Shipping protection is non refundable.

OUR POLICY FOR UNPROTECTED PARCELS:

We will follow the claims policy with your selected courier to either locate your parcel or deem it as lost. This may take 6-8 weeks and is at the discretion of the courier.

If your parcel has a GPS location or photographic evidence that it has been delivered to your property, is with a neighbour or at a secure location, we are not responsible for a refund or replacement.
