Just a cheap product from China
I’ve ended up with a pair of hair straighteners that don’t heat up, arrived with an unusual adapter plug that didn’t hold the plug in when used, and the product is a cheap plastic, none of which showed up on the advertising. I would say everything is deliberately made to look from Uk from write up to advertising, but is in fact from China. A fact I only found out when I said I wanted to return and that’s where I had to send to! Stay away.

Ordered a heated hair brush on 28 August, delivered on 16 September. Used on 17 September, did not work on 18 September. 5 emails sent since then asking for a refund, all falling on deaf ears.
After reading previous comments I have now asked for a replacement as I am not prepared to pay for shipping to China. A total waste of money. Wish I had paid by credit card so that I could have reclaimed the money from the bank.

I really like the ceramic hair brush
Wow! I must be one of the very few women who actually uses my heated ceramic brush most days and am more than happy with the outcome. After cancer treatment I have lost a lot of hair and what remains is bitty, flyaway and has a coarse texture. Using the ceramic brush smooths out the flyaway hair and has given me confidence in public. It was dear but I think, well worth it. Thank you Glowcept.

Very disappointed
I ordered a brush and case. It took two weeks to arrive. It takes 6 hours to charge and discharges the charge within one use. It arrived on the Thursday I reported the issue immediately but the seem to be very slow in offering a solution when they should be offering a replacement immediately or a refund. After reading the reviews I beginning to think I will just be left with a useless brush.

I received a completely different item
I received a completely different item. The item I received isn’t even listed on the website. The product was very cheap and it looks already used. The shop refused to pay for the return shipping, then they offered 50% refund but I never received.
I opened a case on paypal but I lost it because they accepted the return but they never sent the address.
They are a professional scammers.

Returns go to China!
I purchased a styling brush from Glowcept which took 2 weeks to get to me. When i wanted to return the item as it didn't work for me they avoided telling me where to send it, then offered me another product instead. Eventually I insisted that I wanted to return it and was told it would have to be sent tracked and traced to China! When I complained that they had not been upfront about this they offered me a 30% refund instead of returning the item. At this point I agreed to this as it was going to cost me £25-30 to send the package back. Whilst the interactions I had with them were very polite, I would not recommend this company to anyone as they are not being really honest about what is entailed if the products don't work for you.

DO NOT use this company -I placed an order and waited 16 days for it to arrive. When I reached out to customer service, I was told that if I wanted to return the item, I’d have to pay for shipping back to China — which is expensive.
After reading other reviews, it’s clear I’m not the only one who’s had this issue, (note to self check before I order in future) It seems like delayed shipping and costly international returns are a recurring problem with this company.
I wouldn’t recommend ordering unless you’re absolutely sure you’ll keep the item — and are okay with waiting a long time to receive it.

Be very very careful before ordering…
Be very very careful before ordering from this company. Yes, they offer a 30 day no questions asked return guarantee BUT the item has to be returned to China at your own expense. The straightener I ordered also took 17 days to arrive, presumably from China. But communication and customer service is good - was it AI I was communicating with? I don’t know, but they were on the ball. Because of the return issues I would hesitate to buy again from Glowcept.
