RESOURCE GUIDES

At hotCombs, our goal is to provide you with an opportunity to purchase professional grade combs, brushes, and hair accessories, along with product information and informational guides and resources.

PROOF OF QUALITY

Our products are built strong with a very high quality, however, care should still be maintained with everyday use. Our Proof of Quality page guarantees the quality of our hard rubber combs to be free of *seams, burrs, and provide maximum hair protection from ripping or damaging the hair strands. Our Proof of Quality does not guarantee that the combs are unbreakable. Combs and brushes that are damaged from improper care, mishandling, excessive heat, or simply from being dropped, does not make us liable or at fault. It is not our responsibility to send a replacement.

LOST, STOLEN OR DAMAGED

Once your order has shipped from our facility with the USPS, hotCombs is NOT responsible for your package if it is lost, stolen or damaged. All orders are shipped with a Delivery Confirmation that tracks the time and date the USPS received the package from us and the time and date the USPS delivered your package. Please make sure your shipping address is correct before finalizing your order.

Delivery confirmation is not available for international customers, however, we still recommend insuring your order.

Although the USPS has proven to be a reliable shipping provider, packages can become lost, stolen or damaged while in transit. It is rare that these situations may occur, however, they may even after it has reached your mailbox.

In the event that one of these occurrences may happen, hotCombs will not replace the items. Once your package has left our facility with the USPS, it is their responsibility to handle all lost, stolen or damaged packages. Please contact your local USPS office to discuss your shipment issue. USPS Shipping Insurance is available for purchase.

***PLEASE NOTE, all items are thoroughly inspected after production and again prior to shipment for any damages or defects.

*Although there may be seams present on our TM2.0 and Silkline combs due to the molding process, the key factor is that the seams are “even” and smooth. Uneven seams are the culprits that will snag and tear the hair. These combs are manufactured at the highest level and quality control measures for a plastic comb.
