2. Orders
Orders are placed exclusively online on the website https://michelleperruques.fr.

Orders are prepared as soon as full payment has been received.

In accordance with articles L221-18 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, the customer has a period of fourteen (14) calendar days from receipt of their order to exercise their right of withdrawal, without having to give any reason or pay any penalty.

Exception for hygiene reasons
In accordance with article L221-28, 5° of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for goods that have been unsealed by the customer after delivery and cannot be returned for reasons of hygiene or health protection.

Returning products
