KENYA · GUIDE 0339 · EDITION 4.2
Hair dryer resale in Kenya
Used hair dryers sold only after competent condition and electrical-safety assessment.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional resale batch: two used, identifiable handheld hair dryers, each sold with its own professional assessment record, model-correct concentrator if supplied and photographs of cosmetic wear. Choose one supported model family rather than buying an unidentifiable mixed sack of appliances. The reseller performs intake and customer communication; competent authorised or otherwise qualified service personnel decide examination, repair and release. Exclude units with missing identity, unrepaired damage or unresolved overheating. Do not advertise domestic equipment as suitable for continuous professional salon duty without manufacturer support.
Who is the first customer?
Beauty professionals needing a documented working appliance.
