I had such a great experience with Jennifer Rose at Ulta! I didn't feel like doing my own hair, so I booked a blowout, and I'm so glad I did. She gave me one of the smoothest, softest blowouts I've had--my hair felt incredibly silky and looked beautiful. On top of that, Jennifer was so fun to chat with. We ended up geeking out about trains, which made the appointment fly by and made the whole experience feel so comfortable and personal. If you're looking for someone who's both talented and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with, I highly recommend Jennifer Rose. I'll definitely be back! read more

I spend $200 on Dermalogica today. There's a sign in the store that says free gift with purchase. I asked the cashier for the gift. She just didn't look for it very well and just dismissed me. I'm pretty sure if she looked she'd find them. This is the second time I've spent hundreds of dollars on Dermalogica and haven't received my comp gift at this location. I'm gonna have to go to the PV store for better service. Take down the sign. Just a suggestion. read more

I've gone to Ulta for years and have never had a bad experience until this appointment. I specifically booked with a master stylist, but my appointment was changed to a regular stylist without me realizing until I arrived. Since I've always trusted this location, I decided to continue with the appointment. The stylist was very kind, and my silk press turned out nicely. Unfortunately, the haircut itself was extremely disappointing. I have curly hair, and the layers were not blended properly at all. The cut created a harsh "shelf" effect, with very obvious disconnected layers that make it difficult to wear my hair naturally curly now. I understand mistakes happen, and I do appreciate the stylist's professionalism and kindness, but textured/curly hair requires experience and proper blending techniques. I wish the appointment change had been communicated more clearly beforehand so I could have decided whether to reschedule. I'm really disappointed because I trusted this salon and have had positive experiences here in the past. read more

Had a welcoming experience at ulta on Tuesday. Ashley was great and answered all of the questions I had regarding tinsel application. It was fast and she did a great job! The line was long to pay but the cashiers and folks at the front desk were working to make it go by fast and apologized and thanked us for our patience. read more

I stopped in today because i received notification via email that i could pick up a birthday reward. I've received these rewards in the past and the choices, while complimentary, were small and limited. Today I was assisted by Safwa (her name on the receipt) and she brought out about 5 or 6 items for me to choose from. I asked her for a suggestion and I received a generous tube of a hair mask. I'm looking forward to trying it and after reading reviews online, am glad she suggested this item. Thanks to Ulta for their birthday rewards program and to Safwa who patiently assisted me in the store. read more

Absolutely hate this place. I think I'm gonna stick with Sephora only because I've had such terrible luck here. Every experience is a kind of a nightmare and I just don't get it. Is it that hard to sell beauty practice? Are you going to buy a product and they don't have it or they're rude to me or they just simply make me want to never come back. read more

Love this store! You can find great products. I recommend to be a member, you'll always get money back from rewards. They have a lot of cupons you can use at the checkout. read more

1 star for the one girl who said hi - everyone seemed to be standing around on their phones - whoever kept calling ppl for assistance to ring, didn't offer to help either. Sticking to other locations. read more

The worst Ulta store of all. A girl named Favour was very rude; I was trying to pay but couldn't because she was talking to a coworker, and when she finally helped me, she didn't say a word she just pointed at the computer for me to enter my number. She later mentioned my name and the price, but since she was looking away and I didn't hear her clearly, I asked how much it was; she completely ignored me, so I just handed her 20 dollars, knowing the total would be less than that. I rarely leave reviews, but this time, the cashier's attitude left me shocked. read more

I FOUND ANDREA! For anyone who remembers Andrea, she was a master stylist at this location. She is amazing at her craft and worked on all textures of hair. She was definitely my go to stylist. For anyone who has been looking for her or needs a new stylist, her social media handle is @virgos.touch I highly recommend her work! read more

Customer service at this location is below standards. My sister and I were browsing for new makeup, hair products and perfume. Well, we kept standing around looking for someone to help us. I purposely just stood in the makeup section and no one offered to help. I had to interrupt a conversation between two makeup technicians to get their attention. I asked for a specific concealer and after waiting, was told they didn't have it. Only to walk around and find it myself. Afterwards, I tested a perfume and waited again for assistance. Nothing! I ended up taking the perfume to the counter and requested them to grab one for me. Clearly, this location needs a manager who is manning the floor and ensuring customers are greeted and assisted. If someone wanted to commit a theft, this would be the spot. Not managed at all. read more

Went in just for an another STAR chapstick, I am obsessed with them. This location had WAY more options than the Compton and Lakewood Ulta. I got my go to regular and I'm trying out the strawberry! Octavio was my cashier he was super sweet. Definitely a quick and successful trip! read more

I'm not sure what it is with the perfume section but every single time I've gone to buy one, it takes forever. Seems like I'm always being dodged too by the workers.. It had been a minute since I've been here since getting perfume feels like a mission and nothings changed. I'll have to just try a different store completely. read more

Came in to buy a dyson air wrap. The cashier with the british accent was upset I came to ask her for it so I can buy it since it wasn't out (only on display). She called on her walkie for assistance at the hair tools vene though I was all ready to purchase at the cashier. I then walked back shamely to the hair tools section, waited for 8 minutes, nobody came. Begging someone to purchase a $650 item is crazy. Will not be back here... read more

I had an amazing experience with Yesenia at Ulta in Redondo Beach! She did such a fantastic job on my haircut, honestly one of the best I've had in a long time. She really listened to what I wanted. The cut is fresh, flattering, and super easy to style. Yesenia is professional, friendly, and clearly very talented. Highly recommend booking with her if you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair! read more

Unhelpful, rude, and dismissive when asking for help relating to birthday gifts. One of the workers pulled up my account, shown me the gifts, asked for an ID just to dismiss me and not give it in the end. At that point I was already overstimulated and didn't want the gift, the lady looked irritated for doing her job?! Then told me to have a "good" day not giving another glance. I'm sure not all the workers are like this but an Ulta with better customer service is the one in Long Beach. So disappointed in this location. read more

I have never had a problem at this store until today. Usually everyone is very helpful and polite but the cashier that was working today, Tajanae was rude as $&!?. When it was my turn I walk up and said hello, nothing from her. She said enter your phone number which I did then said my name. Told me my total and to scan or insert my card then walked away in the middle of my transaction. No thank you no have a good day no eye contact NOTHING. There is nothing in this store that I can't get from Amazon. Even Amazon sends you a thank you for your purchase email. read more

Never had a bad experience here until a few days ago. Everyone else was pretty nice and overall helpful except for a British cashier lady -- she started off by asking me if I lived in an apartment or a house??? Last time I checked were at ulta why are you asking me a personal question (she also asked my friend the same question, so she must've been throwing this at everyone who came to her). She was sitting on a stool and was bagging my items which were all on the counter and she asked if I could push some of the items towards her -- I didnt mind, but after everything combined it's just bad customer care. You can't reach a lil more and grab them? When all was said and done I was trying to pay and she said, "would you like 20% off your order," I said no because I knew it was the ulta credit card despite it being disguised as a random discount . She than started asking me why and questioning me, I felt peer pressured even tho I fervently denied -- I figured 4 times would've meant case closed, so I tried to tap my card a couple times on the payment terminal wondering why she hasn't okayed the order so I could pay and leave after that awkward interaction. Only to look up and see her staring at me very oddly. I realized she purposely didn't accept until I caved, which kinda ticked me off. She then tried to reason with me on why I'm not signing up bringing up the amount of my purchase and if I really wanted to spend that much. How bizarre and what a lack of social and work etiquette, I'm not your friend or your hg -- never seen u before in my life, she was yet again asking and brining up personal matters that's outside her payroll. Im not exaggerating when I say I said no for about the 9th time and she finally released me from whatever that was. After the transaction was over, she was very cold and her demeanor completely changed. Ulta this is no way to treat your customers, I shouldn't feel like a criminal or bad for not signing up for your credit card and no means no -- do better at managing your employee because apparently this isn't the first negative review about her. read more

STORE LOCATION: 1513 Hawthorne Blvd, Redondo Beach, CA 90278 The sales team is very helpful and attentive. Everyone I came into contact deserve a 5-star rating. Excellent. However, the company's marketing tactics are unethical. At POS, I was instructed to enter my tel# without a purpose provided. I passed. After payment was processed, I was informed that without providing an email address, they cannot provide a receipt because it is sent via email. I passed again knowing that it was not the cashier's fault that her company is run by idiots. She was simply following company procedures, but retailers cannot hold receipts hostage for an email. The trade was completed when Ulta was paid for goods and in California, receipts are required by law to provide proof of purchase and ensure transparency in transactions. Ulta's aggressive methods to collect consumer's personal data for marketing purposes is invasive and illegal. They are no better than modern day pirates trying to get our data. read more

This review is actually for service I DID NOT get, and if zero was an option that is the box I would check. Was in the area and popped into this store because the one by me is always sold out of the Saltair Vanilla Body Oil. Found it here and was browsing the perfume as well because you can never have too much ‍. What's the problem you ask?? I was in the store for 20-min at least and not a word was spoken to me. Not... a...single...one. A tall Hispanic male with curly hair walked by me at least 4 times, looked in my direction, and nothing. Not a greeting, a smile... you know, customer service type things. Guess I'll take my money elsewhere. read more

My experience with this particular Ulta Beauty was just OK because I feel like the staff had difficulty managing the customers during a moderately busy time. I visited this store several times, both to purchase items and to pickup online orders I placed beforehand. I usually buy hair care products, facial care and makeup. All the times I visited this store, there were good amount of customers browsing and purchasing (but not super busy at all!) but noticed that the staff were scrambling a lot trying to manage the checkout, consulting and online order pickup. The wait in the line was unusually long and the staff looked and behaved very stressed and unhappy! I do like the products they carry, including many eye lash options and multiple cosmetic brands, so I will probably return to this store in the future! read more

I never leave reviews but I am in shambles over my hair. I went to get a blowout and the hair stylist convinced me to get it cut too. Worst mistake of my life. She tried giving me layers so didn't cut length just took of so much of my hair, I can't even explain it, I don't know what she did. I had long healthy hair. Now my hair looks damaged, and so stringy, the bottom of my hair is almost not existent, it just looks like a few pieces of string hanging. I've spiraled since I got my haircut. I've purchased so many supplements, started oiling, massaging my scalp. I feel so ugly and it's so sad. Please please be careful ladies. My hair was beautiful before this read more

I counted at least 8 workers on the floor and a manager, yet the line to pay is long. And none wanted to take care of people that actually want to buy. So a few walked out. Lost some sales. They just don't care anymore. So sad. read more

I went to my hair color appointment at this locationI after I had received a reminder, confirmed the appointment, and received a text saying thank you for confirming! They couldn't find the appointment and the lady was extremely rude, she made it seem like it was my fault, I asked to speak with a manger but she was even worse! I was first told that the system is down then the manger said oh I had some cancelations and I called customers but they didn't pick up!!! Their overall manners as human beings were terrible. I booked it online so I couldn't remember the name of the person, I just remember it was a manger and the service was $92, they looked at each other as if I'm speaking a different language when I told them that. I asked her just give me names maybe if I hear the name I will remember who I booked it with but she looked at me in a very rude way and said I can't give you names! Not even sure what did she think I was gonna do with the name when it was already available on line!! I will never deal with Ulta stores for any kind of service again. read more

I've always Ulta for their vast selection beauty supplies. This particular store is similar to the others - helpful associates with tons of product. I tried their salon for a haircut and it was okay but honestly, I'm not their target customer. 4 stars read more

I came in today because a close friend mentioned that Ulta guarantees their makeup purchases. I recently (after Valentine's Day, I bought a Fenty blush using a gift card, and when I got home I found that the blush had a crack I felt ripped off. I returned this morning to try to have it replaced, and I provided my details. I was told there was nothing that could be done because the product was purchased more that 60 days ago; I explained that was not the case. I come here a lot and I had purchased a few weeks ago. I'm extremely disappointed, especially since I shop at Ulta monthly as a way to treat myself. The staff was initially friendly, but the interaction with the manager, Grace made me feel dismissed and almost as if I was being questioned about whether I had even purchased the product recently. I truly wish I had never been told about this guarantee, as it led to a frustrating and uncomfortable experience and a waste of time. Overall, Phil could've been handled differently and more professional, professionally and more empathetically. It was a good run, but I'll be heading to another vendor to treat myself.. Macy's/Sephora/Planet Beauty maybe and taking my business elsewhere. I will also be contacting Customer Service to find out why my receipts are not appearing in the system. read more

So sad to learn that Veronica left. She was great! I will be following her to her new location. I am disappointed that I wasn't made aware of her resignation when I had an appointment booked with her. My appt was just updated to a new stylist without confirming I was okay with it. I assume if I never looked at my apt ahead of time I wouldn't have known until the day of my appointment. read more

Came inside for an online pickup. It didn't seem busy since there was only 1 cashier. One person was checking out, and one person was in line. I looked around mainly in that aisle with the line for checkout. The store looked like it was a mess. Lots of empty areas on the shelves. I wonder if that's due to staffing or inventory issues. Tons of items all over the place as well. I know it's probably not their fault and due to the people shopping. It was a pretty quick trip. I'm trying not to shop unless I need anything. When I got to the front, he took me closer to the door. He checked my email with the barcode and checked my ID. Before I left, he made me open the package (sealed in a bag with a sticker) to make sure it was the correct item. Inside the bag was my item, but the plastic on the box was barely holding on, so one of the items inside was not in place. Online pickups have been so easy these days. Super easy here as well, so I would recommend for online pickup. Based off what I saw in that aisle, I wouldn't recommend coming here if you were looking for something specific. Slim pickings. read more
