There so many beautiful stuff there for people how like all kinds of skin and hair products. Also there perfume for man and woman alike too. The employees really nice and sweet they will make u feel welcome. Clean store and very friendly service. I was approached multiple times asking if I needed help, which I appreciate even though I'm someone who is more of a solo shopper. Also very appreciative of the associate who kindly stepped away from the fixture she was working near so I could grab the product I was looking for, while still adhering to social distancing guidelines. I'm closer to the Skokie location so I usually shop there, but I shop here every once in a while. I'm surprised to see so many negative reviews about rude staff. The staff here has been friendly every single time I've shopped here, pre-pandemic experiences included. Makes me wonder what kind of attitudes some of these people leaving negative reviews were giving. I've worked in retail a long time, and I can count on one hand the amount of times I've seen an employee give a customer undeserved attitude. Just saying. One of the best experiences I've had with an Ulta in the last decade, at least. The staff was friendly and very helpful, and the store was well-stocked! I highly recommend visiting this location for your beauty needs.

Normally this place is buzzing with activity, but I happened to have an evening appointment on a very bad weather night.

There is one reason I go to this place - Casey. She started cutting my hair at Forbici. Then she left there to partner with another stylists for a while and finally opened her own shop. I followed her through every one of her moves. Then my job changed, and her hours and mine didn't mesh anymore. So I tried regular barbershops and even several different 'sports cut' type places, but I never got a consistently great haircut like I always got from Casey. Then things got better because she started working at Ulta around the same time my work hours improved. I was ecstatic to know I could once again have her cut my hair. I dread the day she retires.

The store was stocked with a wide variety of items. I was shocked by the organic, non paraban items available. The prices are reasonable for name brands. They had multivitamins for sale too! If you have time, they offer free makeovers with a purchase. This store sells beauty products for all skin types. Customers can but such items as cologne, conditioner, shampoo, makeup, tea tree oil, products for at home facials, scented lotions and much more!

It's OK. I don't think this is the BEST Ulta store, but basically the reason I go here is to get products I already use or want to try. The promotion used the most was the coupons they send in the mail for $3.50 off, so I never experienced problems with "gift" promotions, but lately I have been too busy to even keep up with the coupons. Sometimes they do have "buy two, get one free" on Matrix hair products, and sometimes they run out, but then I just don't buy them at all. That promotion is so frequent, it is no real loss. It's close to the grocery store, so it's convenient I actually prefer the Kildeer Ulta and the Deer Park Sephora to this store. The Sephora doesn't sell as many hair products or low end cosmetics though. They seem a bit friendlier and it seems less crowded at the store in Kildeer (across the street from the Deer Park Mall near Cost Plus World Market). Over time, I have had my fair share of questionable customer service here, but I have learned one thing, if anyone asks you if you need help (rare, unless you are in the expensive cosmetics section) just say, "No, thank you." You will be much happier in the end. If you do need help, go to Sephora instead. If you like free gifts try Macy's or Sephora (if you want to do points rewards). Then you only have to go to the register and pay. There is a woman I have had several times who seems friendly enough. Nicer than the typical clerks I have had in the past. Nice to me, even though lately I have been showing up in sweats with little to no makeup. Basically my advice is get in, get the stuff you need, and get out. Are there better places, sure, but this is just really convenient for me.

I wanted a huge chop (over 14 inches!) and had somewhat of an idea of bangs I wanted. Bekah treated my hair like it was a precious child. She immediately asked if I was donating my hair (even I forgot I was) and helped tie off my strands and even placed them in a bag for me. She helped me figure out a good length and asked if I was okay while she cut the majority off. She also asked my preference on where I like to part my hair too (which again I totally forgot that existed). I appreciated that because I was slightly freaking out. Ladies, surely you know what I mean. The hair washing? Therapeutic. She then helped my indecisive self with the chosen length of shaggy bangs. I knew it was almost closing time for the salon, but Bekah made me feel like the cut wasn't being rushed at all and made sure I was happy with the result. I was super comfortable during the whole process. It's been YEARS since I've stepped into a salon for a haircut y'all. After styling and some curling, I fell in love with my new look. I'm so satisfied with just everything, including the prices! I highly recommend Bekah (and not just because we have the same name).

Had a consultation with Natalie and she was wonderful. Give me a lot of great advice.read more

I was very particular about the color because I have my hair up most the time as I am a preschool teacher. After 3 LONG hours getting the highlights and the cut I kept having to have her change some here and there so when I could wear it down it suited my needs. It wasn't exactly what I wanted..I had shown her pictures of the style and the way I wanted chunky highlights. I was so worn down and back hurt so bad at that time I just wanted to get out of there. The next day I put my hair up as usual to be surprised by how uneven she did the color! My left side was light and good; but, my right side was dark. Not wanting to step in the salon again I had to get my own color and dye brown into the highlights light myself. Now I need to figure out how to lighten up my right side! I don't know how to go about that directly. I also had to frame my face with shears so I could have some long bangs as shown to her. I'm not a hairdresser! I'm at a loss of what to do about this. I feel horrible and can't enjoy the over 3 hours of horrible pain and how long the whole process was. I guess I learned an expensive hard lesson..just because the salon may be good..the stylist may be horrible! Unfortunately it's not something I can return and get my money back or I would have by now!! I don't usually post on Yelp; but, I'm doing a disservice by not making people aware..

I just moved to the area from California, and I had my hair cut at another local salon…read more I decided to cut bangs into my hair, after about 3 years without them. I went to the other salon, and showed her several pictures of how I wanted my bangs to look. This particular stylist hacked my bangs. I mean, I could have done a better job myself. Nothing is worse than a hairstylist who clearly wants to be somewhere else when she is cutting your hair AND during the time when you are cutting in bangs after growing them out over a long period of time. So, after my bangs were chopped, I spent even more time on Yelp trying to find a salon who could help fix my bangs. Pure is close to my house, and the 5 star ratings cannot be ignored! I was able to get an appointment that day with Iasmina. She fixed my bangs in the best way she could and I was so thankful. She spent time with me looking at how they were cut, and she fixed some other issues with my haircut that I did not like. I am now a few weeks out from my appointment, and my bangs are growing in perfectly. They still are not exactly what I want, but they are so much better because of what Iasmina did with them. I scheduled my next appointment with her immediately. Front desk staff was super friendly (Becky!) and she gave me a tour of the salon when I came in. I have never experienced this before, and I thought it was such a nice touch. It is really clean and bright, and everyone is very friendly. I would highly recommend this salon.

I've been coming to Beauty Time for at least 4 years and I'm embarrassed to say I am only now…read moregetting a review on Yelp: Nick and his wife are fantastic at making you look your best! If you want a great hair cut, come to Beauty Time. Period. Professional, friendly, talented, convenient location, reasonable rates. You won't be disappointed. (I've posted before and after pics of my cuts with this review.) Plus, they are fully up to date with covid protocols and thorough cleanliness so no worries there. (In fact, Nick's wife Arcana was cutting my hair even before they opened their own shop and I followed her to their own place--that's what a good job she does.) Beauty Time's downtown Arlington Heights location is very convenient if you live anywhere near Arlington Heights--tons of free parking, plus plenty of other businesses nearby if you're running errands. I think most guys have Nick work on them--my 17 year old son does, and he has had multiple style changes and has always been very happy with the results...plus they are very reasonably priced. Same thing with my mother before she became home-bound. Since Arcana has been my stylist for so long I usually call and ask when she'll have time and we work it out so I walk straight into the chair. I have never left without feeling like I got a great cut. After all this time I just found out that Nick does "old fashion" shaves and since they've never let me down I am certainly going to try that to start the new year off right. I highly recommend Beauty Time for a great haircut!

Most recently, I went in for a balayage treatment, and Jessi made my hair look even better than the picture! She is a true professional, and is amazingly skilled!
