what's the most easy and most difficult to spa Hermes leather what if the bag turned out to be
fake i'm sharing everything you need to know about the hermes spa after my own personal Hermes spa
experience if you want to check out the detail of my hermes spa before and after in a price
i'll link the dedicated video down below in the description box let's get right into the video
first is the hermes bar requirement as long as the bag is authentic and has never done
any work outside of hermes like a re-dye paint or refurbished by any third party Hermes will do the
refurbish for your bag hermes will not ask you for your receipt or where how much you paid for
the bag where the job is done by the Hermes spa so if your local Hermes boutique has artisans
like the san francisco hermes boutique your spa work can be done locally if you are in a city
that Hermes spa does not have any artisans like san francisco boutique your bag will be sent
to other cities like san francisco or new york city if your local boutique or boutique like
san francisco does not have the material or the artisan feel that the job cannot be done
then your bag will be send it to paris how long does the hermes spa take it really depends on the
amount of work needs to be done on the back let me give you some reference from my own experience my
after sales associate from hermes mentioned to me that if i refurbish the bag and also replace the
strap of my bag the replace strap needs to be sent to paris and which will take about 6 to 8 months
because i only refurbished the bag did not replace the strap the job was done locally in
san francisco boutique it took a little bit less than two weeks next what if hermes find out your
bag is fake after you drop off for spa so i got a receipt paper from my hermes spa and here is what
it says in the back of the paper in the event that your product appears to be non-genuine you
agree that we should be under no obligation to repair your product of course not we are not
responsible for any non-genuine hermes product that is confiscated by customs unless breach of
our obligations we should not be responsible for any damages to the non-genuine product
while it is in our custody or under the custody of the above-mentioned relevant authorities and you
agree to not hold us responsible for taking any of the above actions i also clarified with my after
sales associate what if the bag turned out to be fake after i dropped it off for spa and then she
said that if it's in san francisco and they find out the bag is fake they will just notify you that
the bag is fake and they cannot do any work on it and then you can just pick up your bag if your bag
is sent to paris and turn out to be fake there are two scenario if the bag is in exotic leather then
they will simply not ship the bag back to the states at all and you will have to pick up the
bag in paris yourself if the bag is in the regular leather that they will send it back to the states
they cannot guarantee anything happens along the way back to the states that's what it mentioned
like confiscated by custom because it's after all it's a fake back right All Hermes is saying that
if anything happens to your fake back they cannot guarantee anything but they will ship the backpack
if it's in the regular leather or Hermes spa does not touch inside of the bag they are only doing
the outside do you have to do all the work or job that is proposed by Hermes the answer is no
you don't have to you can pick and choose only the ones that you wanted to do let's say they quoted a
five job to you and if you only wanted to have one job done you can totally do that you don't
need to replace everything that they propose to you next a lot of you guys are curious to know
is that you know in my hermes constance spa video i mentioned that refurbished the entire bag cost
315 dollars but the replacement of the plate inside cost zero dollar in my spa that i did both
services including replace the plate and refurbish the bag what if i only choose to replace the plate
don't refurbish the back at all do i still get the plate replace the for free this is also another
question i asked the after sales associate from hermes and then she said if i choose only to do
the play replacement which is free and then they will still do it for me which means you can choose
only to do the free service if you want to i could have totally just replaced the plate
and not refurbished my constants at all the next one is hermes spa needs your approve hermes will
not start the spa process until you approve their work or reject their work you also have the option
to reject which after you get the quote you can just decide not to do it and then pick up the bag
the next one is every bag that went through the hermes spa process gets a free hermes dust bag
this is a ginormous hermes dust bag i got for my hermes constance you only get a free dust bag you
don't get a free box because every bag comes in the shipment comes with their own box so they
don't have any extra box that they can give to their customers if you did this spa and you don't
get the dust bag be sure to ask for one my hermes after sales associate mentioned to me that hermes
don't recommend use any conditioner or product on your hermes bags because any leather has a
protective layer on top of the leather if you use excessive conditioner you're basically ruining the
protective layer of your leather that's why in my how to care for Hermes bag video i also mentioned
to you that generally speaking i don't use any leather conditioner on my hermes bags and the only
time i use was my constants got color transfer and in order to get the color out immediately i had
to use the leather conditioner i'm just so glad it worked out for me and i was able to get the
color transfer out and i'll leave the leather conditioner down below in the description box
just in case that if you want to have it i also use this leather conditioner for all my chanel
bags as well but most of time you absolutely don't need any leather conditioner for your
Hermes bags i also asked my after sales associate from hermes that since you don't recommend any
leather conditioner what if my bag gets dirty what should i do she said you can take the bag to spark
and i was like of course you're gonna say spark i think most of time it should be good enough to use
the microfiber lining cloth to get the stain or whatever it is out if not you can use like a small
amount of conditioner but i wouldn't recommend you use large amount of conditioner or conditioning
your hermes bags on a regular basis because you totally don't need to the other question i
ask is that after i replace the broken plate on my constants as a part can i get my original broken
part back after the replacement the answer i received is no according to their rules
they have to destroy the the original part after the spa service so you cannot
get your original part back after the replacement after my hermes spa i got new protective stickers
on top of my constant hardware after the hardware got polished it's basically like a brand new
protective stickers you know how before when i asked my sales associate if i should peel off
my protective stickers on my back immediately they always say that yeah i should peel off the
sticker immediately also from my own research that in the past i definitely see people that peel off
the sticker after a very long time and then the gold hardware had became palladium hardware when
they peel off the sticker because the coloring got on the protective sticker so it's definitely
not good to leave it on for a very long time so this time i asked the after sales associate
the same question should i peel it off for my constants she explained to me this time that if
you are in a hot and humid city they definitely recommend to peel off the sticker immediately
but if you are in a city like san francisco the sticker should be good at least for a year
they recommend to remove it after one year and not leave it for longer she also said if i do observe
that the color changing or something potentially my stick on the protective sticker i should remove
the sticker immediately let's find a time to remove the protective sticker together how about
that leave me a comment down below to let me know if you want to see it the next question i asked
her is that what's the most easy to spa Hermes leather actually before i asked her this question
i already have the answer in the back of my mind what she said actually confirms what i thought
yeah it's the togo leather it's such a beautiful natural leather that you can see the grains
so togo leather might not be the most lightweight or structured leather like epsom leather but then
you can see these are all the natural grains of the leather and it's so beautiful and it feels
so nice when you touch the leather i know a lot of people hate the veining of the togo leather
but i just started appreciating this leather more and more over the years and don't you feel
good that your togo bag can be easily spaed and passed along to future generations i also asked
her what are the difficult leather to spa based on her experience she mentioned that box leather
is one of the leather really really difficult to spar and honestly i can see that because box
has a little bit of shiny tint to the back she mentioned to me some of the scratches are really
really difficult to remove on the box leather and the other difficult to handle leather is probably
epsom leather although it's really structured and lightweight it's more of an embossed leather
processed so when the leather got scratched up it will peel off and then show the white part of the
leather you basically destroy the leather but she said they had some success in the past to fix some
small scratches if it has a little bit white part they can fix the leather but if it has a big white
part appeared under the leather mostly it's not possible to repair the leather but she did mention
to me that the best way is take the bag in so that they can diagnose and examine the bag and see how
much they can do for the bag i also asked her what are the most difficult color to spa and she
mentioned it to me that mostly are the white bags for example like my consonants because it's in
white color they are not able to remove everything generally speaking just the light colored bag
are more difficult to spa than the deep color bags there's one color i don't know why it's so special
about this color the orange color she said based on their experience it's really really difficult
to spar orange bag is never on my radar anyways but it's still really good to know that orange bag
is really difficult to spa if you think about your bag purchases in the future i hope this has been
informative leave me a comment down below to let me know your experience or you're thinking about
to spa your bag in the future i would love to hear from you i'll see you guys soon bye
