When Returns May Be Rejected

We reserve the right to reject any return and either retain the scissors or return them to you at your expense if:

  • The scissors returned don't match what we originally shipped to you
  • The quantity of items returned doesn't match the quantity authorised
  • Original brand packaging, case, or accessories are missing
  • Scissors show excessive wear, damage, blade nicks, or modifications
  • Scissors have been used extensively (more than light testing)
  • Scissors are dirty, stained, or require extensive cleaning beyond normal sterilisation
  • Scissors have been sharpened, adjusted, or repaired by an unauthorised party
  • Evidence of commercial salon use beyond suitability testing
  • Tension system has been improperly adjusted or damaged
  • The 7-day contact timeframe has passed
  • Return authorisation was not obtained before shipping
  • Items are not in resellable condition as determined by our inspection team

Important: All restocking fees and return assessments are final and determined at our sole discretion based on professional inspection. It is your responsibility to ensure scissors are returned in acceptable, resellable condition.

Before You Return - Check These Common Issues!

Many "defective" scissors just need a quick adjustment. Before requesting a return, check if your issue can be easily fixed:

  • Scissors feel too loose: Tighten the tension screw clockwise
  • Scissors feel too tight: Loosen the tension screw or apply a drop of scissor oil
  • Hair folding between blades: Your tension is too loose - tighten the screw
  • Not cutting smoothly: Adjust tension and check blade alignment
  • Blades don't feel sharp: This is normal wear - scissors need regular professional sharpening

All scissors purchased from Scissor Hub Australia include manufacturer warranty coverage for defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty periods vary by brand:

Jaguar 1 Year Warranty
Juntetsu Lifetime Warranty
Yasaka 1 Year Warranty
Ichiro Lifetime Warranty
Mina 2 Year Warranty

What's Covered Under Warranty?

  • Manufacturing defects in materials or workmanship
  • Blade defects present from factory (warping, misalignment)
  • Faulty tension systems or handle mechanisms
  • Coating defects (peeling or flaking from factory fault)

What's NOT Covered (Warranty Exclusions)?

  • Normal wear and tear: Blades becoming dull through regular use
  • Accidental damage: Dropping, impact damage, bent blades
  • Chemical damage: Corrosion, staining, or damage from improper sterilisation
  • Improper maintenance: Damage from lack of oiling or cleaning
  • Unauthorised repairs: Sharpening or adjustments by non-approved technicians

To claim under warranty: Contact us at hello@scissorhub.com.au with photos and a description of the defect. We'll assess whether the issue is covered and provide return instructions if applicable.

Important: Change of Mind vs. Warranty

These are two separate policies:

  • Change of Mind Returns: Available for 7 days only. For when you simply don't like the scissors or want to try something different. Restocking fees apply.
  • Manufacturer Warranty: Available throughout the warranty period (varies by brand). For genuine manufacturing defects only. No restocking fees if defect is confirmed.

After the 7-day change of mind period expires, you can still make a warranty claim if you discover a manufacturing defect.
