Is FreshTrends’ jewelry nickel free?
Yes. We use nickel-free solid 14k gold (yellow, white, and rose) and platinum—ideal for sensitive skin, as most metal sensitivities are nickel-related. See our Certificate of Assay on site.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Please contact us within 72 business hours to request a change or cancellation. After that window, production will have begun and we’re unable to cancel.
Customer Relations: Mon–Fri, 10:00 AM–5:00 PM EST (holidays excluded). Call 866-698-9427 or contact us.
Do you charge sales tax?
Yes. We collect and remit sales tax for orders shipping to any U.S. state that requires it, based on local and state tax laws. The exact amount is calculated automatically at checkout.
Do you offer custom sizes or alterations?
Yes—if you need a specific length, gauge, or other option not offered on our site, email support@freshtrends.com. Customizations may incur a non-refundable fee, and eligibility depends on the design.
What is your return policy?
Because each piece is handmade to order, returns are accepted only if the item is defective or if we made an error on your order. Otherwise, all sales are final. For sizing issues, we offer resizing options—see our Return Policy for details.
