You must possess a valid receipt from the authorized vendor, in order to receive warranty coverage or to submit a warranty claim. Warranted items will be repaired or replaced at the company’s discretion.
2. What is covered under my warranty?
Your one (1) year warranty protects your H2PRO tool from any defect or problem due to workmanship from the manufacturing process. A tool is not considered defective, unless examined by our trained in-house technician.

- Removal of any labels or serial numbers from tool.
4. How do I know if I am covered under warranty?
If you are within one (1) year from the date of purchase, you are covered under warranty. You must have you original receipt from an authorized vendor in order to claim your warranty. You may register your tool by filling out the registration form at: www.h2probeautylife.com/registertool. You will need to upload your original receipt to successfully register your product into our warranty database. You may also e-mail us at online@h2probeautylife.com and one of our customer service agents may be able to assist to verify your warranty.
5. How does the warranty process work if my H2PRO tool was a gift?
If you received a H2PRO tool as a gift, you must obtain a copy of a valid receipt in order to activate or claim warranty coverage. We recommend if you are purchasing a H2PRO tool as a gift, you provide the recipient with a copy of the receipt or activate the warranty for the recipient before gifting the item. Without a valid receipt at the time of warranty submission, we cannot determine if the tool is warranty coverage.
6. What online vendors are not authorized sellers of H2PRO products?
Online vendors such as Amazon.com, Ebay.com, Sleekhair.com, and any other website the company deems unauthorized, are not established sellers of the H2PRO product line, and do not have a valid account with our company. We do not guarantee under warranty any products bearing our name or logo and purchased through an unauthorized website. Please make sure to check with our Customer Service Department to confirm if a vendor is an authorized seller of the H2PRO brand.

Unless advertised by the company through social media or directly on the company website via a banner or other advertising outlet, please check with the company about any suspicious prices before placing an order.
PRODUCT CARE
1. What is the best way to care for my H2PRO iron?
Keep your plates clean of residue or product build up, by wiping them regularly with a smooth, gentle cloth. It is best to wipe down your styling iron while it is still warm (but touchable). You may use a mild astringent, such as witch hazel, to wipe down the plates of your H2PRO styling iron.
It is highly recommended to regularly wipe down the crevices with a q-tip to prevent product building up underneath the plates. Any cloth or q-tip used to wipe down your H2PRO tool must only be damp, and not wet. Please refrain from having too much moisture buildup underneath the plates which can cause major surge problems.
2. What is the best way to care for my H2PRO dryer?
Regularly remove the back vent cap on the dryer to remove any built up hair or dust. This will keep your dryer clean, and the motor working properly.
3. If my iron won’t heat past 230 degrees, what do I do?
Your iron has switched into Celsius mode, and can be switched back to Fahrenheit mode easily by following the directions below:
– Unplug the iron, then plug it back in, but do not turn it on.
– Hold down on the increase temperature button, then at the same time, hold down the power button.
– The iron’s digital display should flash an “F” and begin heating to its desired Fahrenheit temperature.
Please note, this is not a reset for any other issue, and only works to switch the iron back into Fahrenheit mode. If the iron displays any other message than the “F” or does not heat up to its maximum temperature, please contact our Customer Service Department.
4. How do I promote the life span of my unit?
Refrain from wrapping the cord around your unit, and always keep your unit clean and properly stored in a dry, safe area. Always unplug your unit after each use, and make sure to maintain safe and careful practices and habits when using your unit.
Excessive clamping of the any styling iron will also cause the ceramic heater to crack. This will be considered physical damage and will not be covered under warranty.
5. Can I use my H2PRO iron when I travel outside of the United States or Canada?
Most H2PRO flat irons can be used up to 240v. However, our older units did not have this feature, and we advise that you call our Customer Service Department and check to make sure your iron is travel ready before using it outside of the United States.
6. Can I use my H2PRO dryer when I travel outside of the United States or Canada?
No, our H2PRO dryers are not considered dual or free voltage, and should only be used within the United States and Canada (or countries that use 110V to 125V).
PRODUCT INFORMATION
1. If I leave my iron plugged in, will it automatically shut off?
Most of our irons feature an auto shut off feature. The auto shut off feature will automatically turn off the heat of your iron after 40-60 minutes regardless of use or non-use. However, it does not shut off the electrical current running from your socket to the iron, and you should always remember to unplug your unit to promote the longevity of the unit, and for safety purposes.
2. Are titanium plates better than ceramic plates?
Titanium plates are beneficial in providing even heat distribution, an exceptionally smooth glide, enhance durability, are easy to use on all hair types, prevent snagging or pulling, deliver instant heat, reduce styling time, eliminate static, reduce damage to hair, and provide your hair with a shinier finish.
3. What temperature options do I have on my iron?
H2PRO irons with digital temperature controls allow you to choose from 18 custom settings, ranging from 280 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. You are able to choose your desired temperature within that range, and adjust the temperature as needed depending on your styling needs.
4. What is the difference between Negative and Positive ions?
Negative ions provide a conditioning-like effect on your hair, compact the cuticle, and reduce frizz. This type of ion is typically used when you are seeking a straighter, sleeker style.
Positive ions allow the hair not to be overly smoothed, open the cuticle, and create height. This type of ion is typically used when you are seeking a more voluminous style.
5. If I dropped my unit, is it still safe to use?
Always use your best judgment after dropping a unit. We have designed and manufactured our units to be sturdy, and resist damage upon impact. However, H2PRO units are not shockproof, and if you notice anything out of the ordinary when using your unit after it has been dropped, it may be in your best interest to contact our Customer Service Department, or send in the unit to be examined at our Repair Center.
STYLING AND PRODUCT TIPS
1. What is the best temperature for styling my hair?
Depending on your hair type, we recommend a general temperature range for using our products.
- Normal Hair: We recommend a temperature range of 360-380 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Coarse, Thick, Curly, or Ethnic Hair: We recommend a temperature range of 380-410 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bleached, Chemically Treated, Damaged, or Fine Hair: We recommend a temperature below 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
Of course, you are the best judge for your hair, and should always use your own discernment when applying heat to your hair.
2. Do I need heat protection when using my H2PRO unit?
No, you do not need to use heat protectants with H2PRO styling tools. The amount of negative ions produced by H2PRO styling tools acts as a natural heat protectant. Because our H2PRO tools are a professional styling tool line, and due to the extremely high temperatures, we caution use of heavy products when using your unit. If you feel you need to use a heat protectant, use only a light, heat protectant such as a serum or spray is recommended. Make sure if you are using a product with your unit, you clean your unit properly to prevent product build up or damage to the unit.
3. Will styling with my iron at 450 degrees give me better results?
Not necessarily. You should always use the proper temperature range for your hair, in order not to damage your hair with excessive heat exposure. Consult with your stylist for their recommendations on what heat level you should use on your hair, or follow our recommendations as listed above in this section.
4. Is the H2PRO brand a good fit for my fine, thin hair?
Yes! With the temperature ranges offered on all our tools, the H2PRO brand has been externally and internally designed for all hair types and textures. As always, exercise caution in using too high of a temperature when styling your hair, and make sure you adjust your heat settings according to your hair type.
5. I’m not a stylist, is it safe for me to use a H2PRO professional styling tool?
Yes, and as a matter of fact, when used correctly, a H2PRO professional tool can be safer and more beneficial to your hair than other brands found in stores. Because of the advanced technology behind our products, you will receive better styling results and achieve healthier, happier hair.
