Extra samples to try are always appreciated. Especially with the cost of the products I am buying. They said I could use a 15% off coupon but it didn't apply to my order.

The AI chat assistant was not at all helpful with my question. I was supposedly transferred to a person, but I'm not 100% sure that happened.
The 15% off coupon I get with each order is never valid for the products I order. I asked when the product line I usually purchase might have a "special offer" in the future, which happens occasionally, but I was given no information. The customer service experience has declined, IMO.

A Knowledgeable Customer Service Agent

What I appreciated about the first call I made today was my luck in getting a customer service agent who was smart and pleasant and able to answer my question about promotional discounts clearly and quickly.

I had a live chat

I had a live chat, and it took longer than necessary because it was not answering the question I initially asked. I finally got to the answer. I asked a product question about volume of the products. My question was was the shampoo and conditioner a total of 8.5 ounces each or is that a combined total? It asked me about my order number, about my name, etc. I had yet to order. I just wanted product information.

I got nothing

I got nothing. They dropped my order to wrong address. Customer service is bad. They did not replacement or refund to me. I am.not sure if I am going to get my product. I asked for a refund because I don't think the product is from USA. The shipping carrier is UniUni. I know if some stuff from China, usually they used this shipping company for transfer product from China to their store then ship to customer. But I don't get my refund yet. Not recommended this website because return or refund is hard. Maybe we will lost money and also get nothing.
