WHOLESALE PROFESSIONAL SALON HAIR CARE SOURCING

In instances where we work directly with a brand to help manage their excess inventory and alternative distribution needs, we explicitly advertise this and communicate any applicable rights of resale, restrictions, or requirements. 

We operate with full transparency and total commitment to the expectations of our clients. Naturally, this imposes certain limitations on how we handle specific products, but we believe that honoring these relationships is the best way to serve our long-term vision.

For the majority of our inventory—always sourced through authorized resellers, regional distributors, duty-free agents, or similar channels—we operate under the protection and principles of the First Sale Doctrine (17 U.S.C. § 109). 

With this legal foundation, we challenge conventional distribution norms and unapologetically align ourselves with these products in a way that is both unorthodox and unauthorized by the brands themselves. 

We do this because we believe in the fundamental American values of liberty, free enterprise, and the pursuit of happiness. 

These principles shape our approach, empowering us to drive a more conscious, consumer-oriented marketplace.

• European Union (EU) & United Kingdom (UK): If a product is sold within the EU or UK, it can usually be resold there freely. However, bringing in products from outside these regions (like the U.S. or Asia) can be restricted by trademark laws.
• Australia & Japan: Reselling is allowed in some cases, but brands can sometimes block sales if the product has differences (such as packaging, labeling, or formulation) compared to what they sell locally.
• China, Brazil, & India: These countries give brands stronger control over who can sell their products. Unauthorized resale can lead to legal action, especially if the brand claims trademark infringement.
• South Korea: Parallel imports (products brought in from other countries) are restricted unless they meet certain consumer protection rules.

• In the U.S., once a product is lawfully purchased, it can be resold freely under the First Sale Doctrine (17 U.S.C. § 109).
• In other countries, resale rules depend on where the product was originally sold and where it’s being resold.
• Some brands try to block resellers by claiming quality control concerns or trademark issues, especially in countries with stricter resale laws.

If you’re buying or selling branded products internationally, some countries may restrict resale, particularly for imported goods. Always check local laws to ensure compliance.

Every item we present includes explicit disclosure of its batch code, with photo proof of the manufacturer’s marking that indicates its production date. You can verify this using industry-trusted sources such as CheckFresh and CheckCosmetic, or by directly contacting the brand for confirmation.

Skincare and cosmetic products have varying shelf lives depending on their formulation, packaging, and storage conditions. Unopened items typically last 2-3 years if stored correctly, while opened products have a shorter lifespan due to exposure to air and bacteria. High-active formulations like vitamin C serums degrade faster, while powders and oil-based products tend to have longer usability. Symbols such as the Period After Opening (PAO) jar icon and batch codes provide additional guidance on longevity and usability.

Given the caliber of clients we serve, the logistical partners we work with adhere to the highest standards of climate-controlled storage, ensuring product integrity. 

When we state that something is resellable, it is in pristine condition—both in compliance with industry expectations and in every practical sense of the word.
