I am 66 years old and have had "interesting" eyebrows for as long as I can remember. This was my second visit to Holly Dowd, the Arch Expert at the Benefit Brow Bar, for tinting and waxing, and I could not be more pleased. Holly is skilled, meticulous, and truly understands how to shape brows in a way that complements your face. For the first time in decades, my eyebrows look natural, defined, and genuinely flattering. After the wax, when my brows were already looking perfect, Holly went a step further and helped me find a concealer and foundation that make an enormous difference--natural, yet more vibrant and polished. A colleague of hers even weighed in on color matching. They were a young person with a fabulous look all in black, cool silver jewelry, and unmistakable kindness in their eyes. The whole experience felt collaborative and attentive. It is definitely more expensive than the threading I've had in Philadelphia, and I may try to stretch out the time between visits, but it is absolutely worth it. I'm grateful to have found Holly and recommend her without hesitation. read more

I'm a senior who is usually ignored and I dread coming to your store! Today was a delightful exception!! Tracy greeted me at the door, offered me so many choices and most of all was super patient and honest. Just a small sale but you need more people on your staff like Tracy. Thought you should know!! read more

Ulta - please review basic customer service with your front facing staff. I have been coming here since opened in the Commons. I have had great experiences until this year. Walked out ripped off (overcharged) and in a bad mood for the rude and condescending summer staff this year. They are not knowledgable about your products, your current discounts, and the demographic who comes into your store. I spent $300+ and the whole experience I felt like I was inconveniencing people for existing in the store. I dealt with three associates while there - one seemed to be from corporate and very nice (as is usually the case at this location - great senior staff....). The other two were young, bored, and seemed to want to be anywhere but at work. And they let me know that with their attitude. When I brought up a current sale on a hair line being held at the store, the girl looked at me like I was bothering her, told me that there was none and told me certain color stickers are full price - so I said just ring it up. Sure enough I was overcharged $68. This is not the first time this has happened this summer. Probably the last. I'll stick to sephora delivery rather than getting ripped off by rude kids with no respect. Train your staff. read more

Book an appointment with Holly at the brow bar! You will not be disappointed. She has been taking care of me for a number of years . I won't go anywhere else. If you have other product questions she can probably help you there too! Thanks Holly! read more

I have since had consistently positive experiences here, staff is very friendly and helpful.

I have been going to this Ulta for several years.Customer service has gone done hill.Used to be excellent. Also they are not carrying the five products I used to get here.Hair products that I use are gone.Although I now live closer to this store,I go there rarely, read more

Had an awesome experience with Jillian at Ulta's hair salon. She is really nice and listened to what I was looking for! I got the signature cut which included a nice wash, deep conditioning treatment, long layer cut and trim, curtain bangs, and a beautiful blow dry. Definitely recommend her and will be going to her again next time I need a fresh cut or blow dry! Couldn't be more happy! read more

Ulta Beauty - Thank you Jillian! Love my long layers, curtain bangs, and blowout! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Old Saybrook, Connecticut

I scheduled two back-to-back appointments here in person a week in advance. I immediately received text confirmations. Then, I received countless follow-up confirmation texts over the following week to the point of harassment. Then, the morning of my appointments, I received texts stating, "these appointments have been canceled" and a simultaneous voicemail stating the same. read more

EMMA was amazing took the time and patience to help me choose the correct products for me! She did not push me to buy the most expensive products she was professional and provided honest feedback. Thank you Emma! read more

I've been to Multiple locations, from California, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Tennessee. And this location is the only helpful one, not only sales asked if you need help, but they educate you about the products. I will continue coming here till I have to move bAck to California. Thanks ladies!! read more

It was the best Ulta to go to. More upscale. Genuinely knowledgeable and the stylists were great. Not anymore. Now you can barely find any anyone to help. The manager was dressed like a slob. They hire stylists right out of school and are clearly inexperienced yet they charge top of the like prices for their services. I left in tears after a $200 service. My hair looked better when I walked in the place! The manager told me to let my hair grow out and then I could go back and get it cut by a "master stylist" for free. The stylist I went to was Arielle. Not recommended. read more

Love this new location! Extremely clean and well organized and fully stocked. I've seen other locations where the testers are disgusting and messy from customers using them but this one was very well kept! I'll definitely be back. read more

I got my hair done for the first time there and I got it curled and the curls lasted less than 30 mins and it was not worth my money. The hair dresser was a sweetheart but I was not happy with the end result. read more

See all

Great place, very helpful/friendly staff-getting larger NARS aisle this month! Stop by!

My favorite location! I split time between Washington State, Arizona, and Connecticut. After going to many locations, this is my absolute favorite. There is plenty of help, but they don't bombard you with annoying "Do you need help yet?" questions. This store is clean, well stocked, seems well staffed. I enjoy going here every time. It's relaxing and fun! read more

Offers professional and consistent services for hair, skin, and nails. Their stylists have worked magic on my hair, and even did a perfect fade on my husband. One of the few places locally that encourages continuing education for their cosmetologists, which is extremely important. read more

Hallelujah - they have a Benefit Brow Bar here! I just got my eyebrows waxed (shaped, really) and tinted. Naomi was amazing and I'm already set up for my next appointment. Very clean, new store with all the products and brands you could want. Excellent experience. read more

I normally do not leave reviews. I deal with good service or poor myself, at the business or directly via the phone. I am in fact writing this on behalf of my wife. Earlier today, my wife decided she needed to get her hair colored and wanted to have someone do it for her (first time she hasn't done it herself.) After a quick google and yelp search and review check she decided on your establishment. She left here happy and content. Which is why I was confused and worried when she got home and was near tears. In a nutshell the person doing the coloring job not only did a bad coloring job, but spent the entire visit disparaging my wife's hair, her looks, and in general making my wife, in her words, "feel ugly." Whether or not the individual who was doing my wife's job was having a bad day or generally didn't know what she was saying and the comments she was making were hurtful is irrelevant. My wife is not only the most important person in my world, she is also the center of my world. I don't care what someone thinks of me or her, truly. Neither one of us have ever tried to fit someone else's idea of what is proper or "beautiful." However I was also raised to believe that the rule of "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all" is true. I find it a disgrace and outrageous that someone working in the beauty field would consciously or unconsciously make negative comments about someone else's looks. As I said, maybe this person was just having an off day. Maybe they were disgruntled at the company or were going through issues in their lives. I don't care. What I do care about is my wife and her happiness. To that end I assure you that I will do whatever I can and whatever I must to bring back her smile and good cheer. I simply wanted to leave this here and let you know that you have forever lost a customer and also made a lovely and amazing lady feel ugly. For that I can never forgive you or your company. The end. read more

We just had an amazing experience at Ulta. Danielle at the clinic desk is fabulous. She worked with my daughter for nearly 2 hours finding her the right products and helping her apply her makeup. Amazing customer service. read more

Amanda is an excellent hair stylist who is professional and knows what she's doing. DO NOT go to Natasha for anything regarding your hair. I'm not sure if Ulta is desperate for hair stylists or if she just got her license but she messed up my highlights and it looked blotchy and striped and Amanda had to fix it. While Amanda was fixing it she had another customer for a haircut who looked liked she wanted to sprint out of the building the entire time Natasha was cutting her hair. Spent 4 hours there. read more

I don't normally write reviews but I was incredibly impressed with the service I received at Ulta this morning. The entire team was super attentive and welcoming, I worked particularly with Najee who was so helpful and kind. You are doing wonderful! read more

I travel to this ulta because of how well of an experience I have every time I am here. The staff is very friendly and knowledgable of products. I have gone to ask some employees help with deciding/purchasing an item and they are always so helpful and such wonderful people. This ulta is the cleanest out of all the ones I've been to. I love it here! read more
