My hair and my bank account both feel smoother now that I ship the Unbrush from the US to Germany

Why I Needed the Unbrush TikTok Hype

Like everyone else on my social media feed in early 2026, I became obsessed with the Unbrush by FHI Heat. If you have hair that tangles if you so much as look at it funny, you know the struggle. This brush went viral for a reason: it actually works on wet or dry hair without the painful pulling. However, trying to find one in Germany was a nightmare. It was either sold out at every major retailer or being sold at a ridiculous markup by resellers who clearly knew they had a goldmine.

The Price Gap Struggle: US vs Germany

When I looked at US retailers like Amazon or the official FHI Heat site, the price was around $18. Then I looked at local European options, and they were charging upwards of €40 or €50 once you factored in the "scarcity tax." I realized that even with international shipping, I could probably save money if I bought it directly from the source. The problem? Many of these US shops don't offer direct Germany delivery, or if they do, the shipping costs they quote are astronomical.

How I Shopped US Stores from My Couch in Berlin

I decided to take matters into my own hands by using a package forwarding service. I signed up for comGateway, which gave me a tax-free US address in Oregon. This was a huge win because it meant I didn't have to pay US sales tax on my purchase before it even left the country. I simply placed my order at a US retailer and used my new US address as the shipping destination.

For those of you who find that some US websites won't accept your German credit card, I highly recommend checking out their BuyForMe service. This proxy shopping option means they handle the purchase for you, which is a lifesaver when a store is being picky about billing addresses. Once my Unbrush arrived at the warehouse, I used the shipping calculator to see exactly what the final leg of the journey would cost.

Shipping Estimates for The Unbrush

If you are planning to buy from US ship to Germany, here is a breakdown of what you can expect for a single Unbrush by FHI Heat. Keeping these specs in mind helps you avoid surprises at the checkout.

Understanding Import Tax for German Delivery

When you use a freight forwarder to send items to Germany, you need to be aware of the import tax (VAT/Einfuhrumsatzsteuer). Currently, in 2026, Germany applies a 19% VAT on most goods imported from outside the EU. Since the Unbrush is a relatively low-value item, the process is usually very straightforward. Most major carriers like DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping will handle the customs clearance and send you a link to pay the fees online before delivery.

Final Thoughts on Using a Freight Forwarder

By the time I received my package, I had spent significantly less than if I had bought from a shady reseller in Europe. Plus, I knew I was getting the authentic product directly from FHI Heat. Using a freight forwarder turned a "sold out" situation into a successful haul. If you are tired of waiting for European stock to replenish, just grab it from the US and ship to Germany yourself. Your hair will thank you, and so will your wallet.
