Terms &
Conditions

By accessing or using the services of CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED (hereafter referred to as “we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Company”), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, as well as our Privacy Policy.

These terms apply to all clients, visitors, and any persons who interact with our business in any capacity — including but not limited to requesting quotes, placing orders, booking appointments, or communicating via WhatsApp, email, or any other channel.

CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED operates three independent service divisions, each governed by these shared Terms & Conditions, along with any division-specific policies outlined below:

We reserve the right to decline any service request at our sole discretion, without obligation to provide a reason. This right will only be exercised when absolutely necessary and never in a manner intended to discriminate or harm.

All bookings, quote requests, and appointment scheduling are handled primarily through WhatsApp at +1 (410) 240-6386, and through the booking forms on our website. Submitting a form or initiating contact does not constitute a confirmed booking.

• A booking is only confirmed once you receive an explicit written confirmation from our team via WhatsApp or email.
• For design and apparel services, a deposit is required to formally begin your project (see Section 04).
• For hair appointments, your slot is held only upon deposit payment unless otherwise agreed in writing.
• We will do our best to accommodate your preferred scheduling, but availability cannot be guaranteed until confirmed.

You are responsible for providing accurate, complete, and up-to-date information when making a booking. Inaccurate information that results in errors or delays in service delivery is the responsibility of the client.

All prices quoted are in United States Dollars (USD). We accept payment via the following methods:

• Cash App — Preferred for quick transactions
• Zelle — Available for US bank account holders
• PayPal — Available for domestic and international clients
• Venmo — Available for qualifying transactions
• Bank Transfer — For bulk orders and larger projects

A non-refundable deposit is required for all services before any work begins. The deposit amount will be communicated during your consultation and is typically structured as follows:

• Design Services: 50% deposit required upon project confirmation. Remaining balance due upon final delivery.
• Apparel Orders: 50% deposit required to begin production. Remaining 50% due before shipping or pickup.
• Hair Appointments: A deposit of $25–$75 (depending on service) is required to hold your appointment slot.

• Deposits paid on design projects are non-refundable once work has begun.
• If a project is cancelled before work commences, the deposit may be refunded at our sole discretion.
• Client-initiated cancellations after work has begun will forfeit the deposit, and any additional work completed may be billed accordingly.
• If we are unable to complete your project due to circumstances on our end, a full refund of all payments made will be issued.

• All custom apparel orders are final sale once production has begun. No returns or exchanges on custom-printed items.
• If your order contains a defect caused by our production error, we will reprint or refund the affected items at no additional cost.
• Size exchanges are not accepted for custom orders. Please ensure all size information is accurate before approving your order.
• Client-approved artwork that prints incorrectly due to a client error in the approval process is not eligible for a reprint at our expense.

• Cancellations made 48 hours or more before a scheduled appointment may be eligible for a deposit credit toward a rescheduled appointment.
• Cancellations made less than 48 hours before a scheduled appointment will forfeit the deposit in full.
• No-shows will forfeit the deposit and may require full pre-payment for future bookings.
• We reserve the right to reschedule appointments in cases of stylist illness or emergency, with as much advance notice as possible.

Our graphics design and media services operate on a structured creative process designed to deliver excellent results while protecting both client and designer.

• All design packages include a specified number of revision rounds, communicated at the start of each project.
• A standard project typically includes 2–3 rounds of revisions. Additional revisions beyond the agreed number will be billed at our hourly rate.
• Revisions must be submitted as compiled, clear feedback — not piece by piece — to ensure an efficient creative process.
• Scope changes after work has begun may incur additional charges.

• Final files are delivered digitally via WhatsApp, email, or a shared cloud link after full payment is received.
• We deliver files in formats appropriate for the service (PNG, PDF, JPG, AI). Specific format requests must be communicated before project start.
• Source files (AI, PSD, Canva originals) are not included by default and are available for purchase at an additional fee.

Once a client provides written approval of a final design, the project is considered complete. Any changes requested after this point will be treated as new work and billed accordingly. It is the client’s responsibility to proofread all text and verify all details before approving.

All custom apparel orders are subject to the following terms in addition to the general payment and cancellation policies outlined above.

• Minimum Order Quantities: Some printing methods require a minimum quantity, communicated during your quote process.
• Colour Accuracy: Screen colours may vary slightly from printed colours. We will do our best to match your approved artwork.
• Production Timeline: Standard turnaround is 7–14 business days from deposit and design approval. Rush orders may be accommodated with an additional fee.
• Artwork Requirements: Supplied artwork must be high-resolution (300 DPI or higher). We are not responsible for poor print quality from low-resolution client-supplied files.
• Sizing Disclaimer: Garment measurements vary by brand and style. Size guides are available upon request; we recommend ordering samples for large bulk orders.
• Shipping: The client is responsible for providing accurate shipping addresses. We are not liable for delays or losses caused by postal carriers.

Our hair braiding and loc care services are performed in-person in the Maryland, USA area. The following policies apply to all salon appointments.

• Clients must arrive with clean, freshly washed hair (unless the booked service includes a wash).
• We reserve the right to decline service for scalp conditions that may be contagious, severely unhealthy, or that could interfere with the quality of the service.
• If a previously undisclosed scalp condition is discovered at the appointment, additional treatments may incur extra charges.

• Please arrive on time. Clients arriving more than 15 minutes late may forfeit their appointment and deposit.
• We operate a respectful, faith-centered environment. Disrespectful or abusive behavior will result in immediate termination of the service with no refund.
• Children accompanying clients must be supervised at all times.

Final results may vary depending on hair texture, length, density, and overall hair health. Providing clear reference photos during booking helps set accurate expectations. We are not liable for results that differ from inspiration photos due to differences in hair type.

All original creative work produced by CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED — logos, branding materials, graphic designs, illustrations, apparel designs, and media content — remains the intellectual property of CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED until full payment has been received.

• The client receives a license to use the delivered creative work for its intended purpose.
• Unless explicitly agreed in writing, the transfer of full copyright ownership is not included in standard project fees.
• We retain the right to display any work produced for clients in our portfolio and marketing materials unless the client requests otherwise in writing before project commencement.

By providing logos, photos, text, or other materials, you confirm that you own or have the legal right to use such materials, and you indemnify CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED against any claims arising from the unauthorized use of third-party content.

As a client of CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED, you agree to:

• Provide all required content, information, and approvals in a timely manner to avoid project delays.
• Communicate changes or concerns promptly and professionally via the agreed communication channels.
• Ensure all information provided (sizing, quantities, addresses, design specifications) is accurate before approval.
• Make payments according to the agreed schedule without delay.
• Respect our team members, our time, and the creative process.
• Not reproduce, resell, or redistribute our delivered work without prior written consent.

Project timelines are estimates and may be affected by delays in client feedback or payment. We are not responsible for deadline overruns caused by client-side delays.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be held liable for:

• Any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use of our services.
• Losses resulting from errors in client-approved content, designs, or order specifications.
• Delays caused by third-party suppliers, printing vendors, or shipping carriers.
• Any loss of business, revenue, or reputation arising from the use of our delivered services.
• Hair service results that differ from inspiration photos due to differences in hair type, texture, or health.

In no event shall our total liability to any client exceed the amount paid by that client for the specific service that is the subject of the claim.

We understand that clients may share sensitive business information, branding strategies, or personal details during the course of working together. CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED treats all client information with the utmost discretion and professionalism.

• We will not share your project details, business information, or personal data with any third party without your express permission, except where required by law.
• If you require a formal Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) for your project, please inform us before work begins.
• Portfolio display of completed work (see Section 09) does not violate this confidentiality commitment, as it only showcases the public-facing deliverable.

Our primary communication channel is WhatsApp at +1 (410) 240-6386. By initiating contact with us, you consent to receiving business-related communications via WhatsApp and email.

• We aim to respond to all inquiries within 24–48 business hours.
• We operate primarily Monday–Saturday. Responses outside of these hours are not guaranteed.
• All formal project approvals, cancellations, and agreements must be communicated in writing via WhatsApp or email to be considered valid.
• We are not responsible for missed communications caused by delivery failures on the client’s end.

These Terms & Conditions are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

Any disputes arising from these terms or our services shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith communication between both parties. We believe most issues can be resolved with honest conversation rooted in mutual respect.

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, the parties agree to submit to binding arbitration or the jurisdiction of the appropriate courts in Maryland, USA.

CAMERICAN_IS_BLESSED reserves the right to update or modify these Terms & Conditions at any time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date.

We encourage clients to review this page periodically. Continued use of our services after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. For significant changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify active clients directly.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests related to these Terms & Conditions, please reach out. We’re always happy to clarify or discuss anything before you commit to a service.
