  Hello ********!
   
  Thank you for your email! We are more than happy to be of assistance.
  
  We do apologize for any inconveniences experienced! At this time we do see that on the 6th a conversation with a representative regarding the missing package was made. That representative did go ahead and proceed to send a reshipment package to the requested updated address provided below on February 7th. A further notation was added stating that the claim filed by the recipient to the carrier had been issued but attempted to cancel.

  We do see that another follow up was made through email on February 8th stating that the claim submitted through the carrier advised that they had located the original package and issued a delivery so a request to cancel the reshipment package was processed. At this time the reshipment package is currently being returned to sender. 

  Updated shipping address:

  Hello,
  
  I finally received my order this morning after I filed a claim with **** they located the package and delivered it. After I opened the package not only does the color not
  Match but it was one piece of hair. Is this a joke? What is your return/exchange policy? Because I am not paying $100 for
  One strand of hair thats absurd! I will call during business hours as well for more assistance as your establishment is unresponsive!
  
  

   

  We do see that the item purchased was our BELLAMI Silk Seam 60g 24" Volumizing Weft Platinum Blonde (80) which is just one 4 clip weft we do offer set extensions that can offer 5-7 wefts but the silk seam volumizing weft is just a complementary item which is made to complement our silk seam clip in sets to add further volume if needed. We do apologize if the product did not work and If you are unsatisfied with the volumizing weft we do offer a return policy!  

  Please use the link below to set up a return or exchange for an order! Make sure to use your BH# or PRO# order number. 
  
  ***************************************************
  
  Please enter in your order number and email address in the designated sections! You  will be then prompted to select which item you would like to return, the quantity and the reason why you are returning the item.
  
  If you are wanting to do an exchange, it will have you select the item you are exchanging for!
  
  Please note, exchanges will only be accepted and processed if they are of equal or lesser value.
  
  Once everything is confirmed, you will then be prompted to select a *** drop off location to take your return to as your final step!
  
  Once the tracking number has been scanned, your refund will be automatically processed, however, it can take up to 24 hours to receive this notification in your inbox. If you are doing an exchange, the item will be shipped out once the request has been received in the system. Please allow 24 hours for your exchange shipment confirmation to flow into your inbox.
  
  Please then allow the normal 3 to 5 business days for your bank or credit provided to reflect those funds back onto your account.
  
  If you have any other questions, please let us know!
  
  Best Regards,

  Team Bellami

  They closed my account that my $1200 digital certification is on. I cannot access the class or my account to order hair for new customers. I need to be able to access my account. I called to have it reset and now I cannot access it yet again and no one will contact me except for the text person who is useless and keeps telling me to hang tight. I would like access to the account and class I have paid for and been using since July, no one will contact me.

  I let my hair guilt talk me into doing weft extensions. It Bellami hair she said. It's the best she said. The valine weft is amazing she said and she said she told classes on installing them. They would not damage my hair is what I was promised. I was also told I could go 6-8 weeks without moving them. Well..:. I literally had them in for 6 weeks and they destroyed my hair. I list more then half my hair because they pulled and were way to heavy for my hair. They are not for people with fine hair and that is not disclosed anywhere on your site or in the fine print. You have people representing your company who don't know what they are doing and making promises that are false. You should be ashamed I am attaching what my hair looked like prior to your damaging extensions and what it looks like now. What this is causing me mentally is huge!

  I opened the package and immediately washed the hair. I followed the instructions to a T! I immediately sent video to customer service and they sent me the response that I provided. I replied to them and they just stopped responding. I still have ********** hair just sitting here unable to use. I would like a refund. So many people I've spoken to about my experience say that they've had the same with the hair and that customer service was NO help.

  I am rejecting this response because: It has been 2 years since I received my hair, immediately reached out to Bellamihair with my concerns and have been ignored. 
  

  When I reached out to Bellamihair, I included videos, pictures, detailed information regarding my concerns, etc. I no longer have the photos and videos nor do I have access to the email address that I used when making the purchase (***********************). 
  

  I would like my refund of $330.78 and nothing less. Bellamihair is a scam and I wish I had trusted the many reviews that said the hair is of poor quality and is NOT real Remy hair. 
  Sincerely,

  Hello *********!
  
  Thank you for sending through your confirmation. We can see that your BELLAMI'S were purchased in August 2021, which may be the case that they are past their lifespan.
  
  Being a natural product, they have a lifespan of  3 - 6 months max!  Please keep in mind that the hair  is essentially "dead" hair that is not attached to the scalp and therefore not receiving the vitamins, moisture and nourishment that hair needs to be able to maintain itself over a longer period of time. More so, as they are attached to a weft by glue and thread as well as other manufacturing materials, shedding as well as tangling cannot be avoided and over time through the use of wear, tear, washing and styling the overall quality can deteriorate. 
  
  They are a temporary product and therefore do need to be replaced. Since this purchase was placed over a year ago due to the time frame we cannot honor a return, exchange or inspection. As a security measure we only provide a return time frame of 30 business days once the item is originally received as we do not keep your personal card information for your own safety. At this time we can only provide a 25% off  coupon towards your next purchase as a one time courtesy this discount code cannot be used in conjunction with any current promotions or discounts.

  I paid over $1200 for hand tied extensions from this so called high end company. The extensions they sent me were absolute junk- definitely not 100 percent human hair. My stylist and I had to call in for over a month before we could finally get anyone from customer service on the phone. They agree to send a replacement set. That set comes and is just as bad if not worse than the first set. Again takes over a month to get any response from customer service and we get passed to the "regional rep" who literally refused to take our calls. When I finally got him on the phone he told me it was probably "user error" but that they'd need me to send in the hair for inspection before they'd issue a refund. They sent a shipping label which took another week to arrive and I had to constantly follow up on. They also sent replacement hair AGAIN. Third set: still just as horrible- tangly, dry, brittle, etc. On 9/1 we emailed to see what the status of The inspection was and they said it would Be another 2 weeks. Never heard from them again. I called a week ago and sat on hold for nearly 2 hour before I was able to get a manager on the phone. She tried telling me that they can't refund me, and then finally after my outrage told me that they actually can. She said she "processed" the refund but that it could take up to 5 business days and actually may not go through because it's been longer than 6 months since the first order. The ONLY reason it's been that long is because it took literally months and months of waiting on hold for hours to even get these people to help. Look at their social media reviews and you'll See they are scamming so many people. This isn't $100 hair...this is thousands of dollars they are stealing from people.

  I have 20 inch bellami pro weft extensions 145g in color 3/60 walnut brown ash blonde. I have spoke to Bellami customer service about the issue I am reporting, I was told they would send me out a replacement set of wefts. I have provided them with my address but now I am being told by a member of customer service that I need to provide them with more information after they had reviewed the photos and seen the color difference in the wefts and the weird way one weft has hair laying which would make for an uncomfortable wear/install. I am just wanting for them to keep their initial word and provide me with a replacement weft which would be overnighted. I do not know why they would tell me their plan of action but then tell me there are more things that I need to do for this to be done. I have already paid about $600 for this hair extensions, I should not have such a hard time replacing something which I have not worn, colored/toned, styled or used.

I provided them the order number and information about the product i purchased. They did not help me at that time. I just want them to fix what is wrong and issue me a replacement product of the same, which was what they were going to do when I wrote them about the issue.

  **********************, thank you for the opportunity to share this complaint. I am confident the company I am reporting is unlawfully scamming their customers. Bellami Hair is falsely advertising their hair extensions as 100% **** human hair. For reference, **** human hair is the highest quality hair extension available on the market. The hair entensions on Bellami's website are advertised as 100% **** human hair, when in fact, they are a blend of human hair and synthetic fibers. Those who are familiar with hair extensions will know right away that these are synthetic upon the application of heat. Natural human hair extensions should not melt or disintegrate upon the application of heat. As soon as I applied heat to the Bellami extensions, I could see (and smell) the synthetic fibers melting/disintegrating. I have used human hair extensions for over 10 years now, and I am very familiar with quality, texture, and upkeep. Human hair strands would be unaffected by heat application in this way. I've confronted Bellami with this claim, and they have been unreceptive to resolving the issue. False advertisement is unlawful, as well as selling customers synthetic blend hair extensions at a **** quality price. Acceptable resolutions are as follows: Re-advertising the extensions truthfully, as a human hair and synthetic blend, and issuing me a full refund. Thank you, and I hope we are able to reach a fair resolution.

  Business Response /* (1000, 8, 2022/08/03) */ Hello, thank you for your message. We regret to hear our customer ************** is unhappy with her purchase from February 27th, 2022 ********* for our BELLAMI Silk Seam 240g 22" Dark Brown (2) Hair Extensions. We have fully reviewed our call and email records for order ********* and we have been in contact with this customer via phone. We do have a 30-day period where our customers can report any quality issues from the time the order is received, which would have ended in April 2022. During this time, we always provide a solution for our customers. First, we would have encouraged out customer, to provide us with images of the product and then, if the issue is still not easily identified, we offer a quality inspection where the customer would return the product at our cost, so we may evaluate for quality issues within the 30-day time frame. Our customer had concerns about the hair not being 100% **** human hair, but unfortunately did not reach out to us until July of 2022 which puts this at 5 months past our warranty policy. In this phone conversation, we offered to send this set back for an Inspection or a 15% discount off their next set of extensions due the amount of time that has passed, as we are not able to honor a refund if we do not have the approrpriate information. Each of our sets comes with a coating that normally washes off when the hair is washed, but if some residue remains on the hair, it is possible that that will stick onto any heating tool. We do always recommend giving them a light wash with a damp cloth when you first receive them if you are going to style them because we do place a vitamin coating on the hair which acts a protective barrier but can give that shine and silky feel to the hair! We typically advise to not go past 400 degrees when styling with hot tools and always recommend using professional or salon grade heat protectants to preserve the lifespan of your Bellami Extensions. We do also recommend to wash them sparingly with sulfate free shampoo and conditioner and to detangle them with a wet brush prior to washing. It is best to hang them and let them air dry for future styling and wear. Since the order was placed In February 2022, this order is not within our 30-day timeframe and although it has been opened, our goal is to understand what the quality issues in the set are, as it sounds like too high of heat has been used for these estensions and they have not been properly maintained. We stand by our product and are always open to assisting and finding resolutions for our customers with any issues they have. All the best, Bellami Customer Service Mgmt

  I have been scammed they said I won free hair extensions in a contest I then emailed them and they responded and they said to go claim them at link provided. Well I went to link and it wasn't a valid link. Also I'd like my hair extensions I won Please make good on your contest I don't understand why you guys would do this to people especially when it's hard to make money theys days and I treated myself to buy over two thousand dollars of your hair.

  Business Response /* (1000, 14, 2022/08/08) */ We regret to hear that our customer ********** feels as though she has been scammed by our company, as we have checked our records and we do not have any email or phone calls associated with the information the customer has provided. In an instance like the customer is speaking to, we would always ask for a link as well as screenshots so we can further look into the issue at hand and make sure we handle this accordingly as we never send our customers random links on our behalf for contest winnings. We also have checked with our Marketing team as no eligible contests were running at that time. We've looked into this customers account, as it seems there has been multiple BBB claims associated with this customer's information speaking to quality, or unreceived shipments. The last order we have for this customer was from January 25th, 2021 for $193, in which a replacement and refund was honored for this single order. This was finalized back in February 2021, with the customer coming back September 2021 with the following information 9/24/2021 6:13 am--********** I never received the 193.00 Hair that was charged to my credit card and I was wondering why you people have not responded to me at all it's been well over a few months and I was first informed I would be getting my hair and so I wait wait wait no emails no phone call nothing ********************* 9/24/2021 3:54 pm Hello *****! Thank you for your email! We are more than happy to be of assistance. We do see that a replacement order for the Piccolina sterling silver set as well as a 2 in 1 hot tool was processed and shipped from our warehouse facility on the 4th of February. This replacement was sent with overnight next day deliver through UPS. A full refund was not issued since a replacement was requested so the difference of cost for the Piccolina set was refunded back onto the debit/credit account used at time of purchase. In total a refund of 30 USD was processed back to the payment method used at time of purchase. We will go ahead and post the refund receipt below as it does show that this reimbursement did reflect back onto your account on the 5th of February. We are more than happy to assist our customers to the best of abilities, but we do need the appropriate information to help them resolve any issues, as it looks like correspondence with the customer had ended on their end. All the best, Bellami Customer Service Management
