Order Processing Time & Festival Deadlines

Plan Ahead with Half Sweet

‎We want your experience with us to be as seamless as possible, which is why we’ve set estimated deadline dates to guide your orders :)

‎ ‎

These dates are designed for domestic events using Standard Shipping (3-5 business days) and are based on our current order volume and capacity. Since these deadlines can shift, we encourage you to check back frequently for updates.

What you should Know About Our Products

Ready-to-Ship Items:

The majority of our products are ready-to-ship. These pre-made or packaged pieces are typically shipped within the current processing timeframe of 1-5 days. Check our homepage for the latest updates as processing time can occasionally change.

‎

Made-to-Order Items:

These handcrafted or customized items, such as Custom Tie-In Braids, have varying processing times, which are clearly listed in their product descriptions. Processing can take anywhere from 1 to 21 business days depending on the item

Processing Time + Shipping Time + Potential Postal Delays = Your Delivery Date

‎

If you are traveling ahead of your festival start date please factor in time to receive your order

‎

These dates are FLEXIBLE but we give a few buffer days just in case :)

Ordering After Deadline Dates? No Problem!

If you’ve missed our deadline but still need your items in time, here’s what to do:

‎

1. Contact us by email at hello@halfsweetstudios.com or via the chat function on our site with the items you’re interested in and the exact date you need them by (event names are not required).

‎

2. We’ll confirm whether we can meet your timeline. If we can, a rush order fee may apply.

‎

We also recommend upgrading to Priority Shipping for faster delivery. However, keep in mind that this option speeds up shipping time only—it doesn’t bypass the processing queue.
