    Finished hair
    Abigail B.

    I booked an appointment for a custom updo and makeup services for a wedding. The girl doing my hair seemed to struggle for quite some time to get my hair up and then ended up calling someone over to help her. I don't have particularly long or thick hair but it took both of them to finish my hair. The final look was messy and the pins could be seen throughout. The same girl did my makeup and while she seemed more confident with my makeup, the finished look was not even close to what I asked for. I ended up leaving as soon as possible and redoing my hair and makeup at home. I will not return and would not recommend.

    Awesome Blowout done by Natayla!
    Kimmy K.

    From the moment I walked in, Natayla and Katie were wonderful. Natayla did my blowout the first day and I came back again the following day for a touch up and got Katie! Both gals are fabulous and I'm super particular about my hair. Both of them went above and beyond and I super appreciate that! Can't wait to see yall next week! Xoxo

They offer you coffee or tea from a local business in Libertyville which I thought was awesome and there's also cucumber-lemon water too. Patty came out to get me around 6:15-6:20 and patiently listened to my thoughts on what I wanted to do with my hair. She was super friendly and really helpful with offering advice every time I told her about my hair problems. Too dry, too frizzy, too damaged, everything! Believe me when I say my hair has been through a lot over the last decade and more. Patty washed my hair with an amazing minty shampoo and also a very light, non-creamy conditioner which I specifically asked for (yes!). Then she also showed me a leave-in conditioner and thermal protection spray that she thought would be best for my hair. What I most appreciated was that at no point did she ever try to sell me any of their products. She simply talked to me as if she was recommending something for a friend. The haircut turned out to be pretty good. My bangs were cut a little too short than what I would've liked though but luckily it grows out fast so it's not that big of a deal. She took off about 6+ inches of hair in the back so it ended up at the length that I wanted. Other random points: The Hair Fetish uses a lot of Paul Mitchell and Davines products. It's also a huge bonus that they do a free trim of your bangs if you come in the next 3 weeks after your haircut!

The salon is clean, and does not smell of product. My first colorist was very nice. I liked the color. My only complaint was I had roots showing within a couple of days. I had joined the pro level subscription, which meant I could get my roots done as often as I wanted. This is where it went downhill. When I went to try to get my roots done, I was told there was nothing wrong with them, and it must be the lighting. For a company who says you can come in as many times as you'd like for root touch ups at the pro level, they certainly do not want you to. The tech did my roots. The next day, I dried my hair, and my roots were showing!! I used the powder they sold me, and waited two weeks. I went back for another root touch up. The same thing happened. I washed my hair, with appropriate products, and my roots appeared. Whatever they had been using since my first trip was not permanent. I now had well over a half an inch of roots. We come to today. The tech asked if I used demi-permanent or permanent dye. I said "Permanent dye." I was getting an all over dye color, hoping this would color all of my roots. I was shampooed. I dried my hair, and left. Imagine my shock and dismay when I looked in the mirror and saw my roots!! What products are they using over there? No, it's not the lighting. No, it's not an "ashy" color. I went home and my son noticed right away. My husband noticed when he came home. I am very disappointed. I have cancelled my membership.

My plan was to dye my entire hair one color and she pointed out that a roof touch up would be a better choice since I had natural highlights and they would be covered if I did an entire hair service. She has a great eye for style and really was comfortable working with my hair texture. She shared her experience of working in the Ms. world beauty pageant competitions and doing the hair of contestants. Hands down, Anamaria is very talented. I highly recommend her. My next stop was Jackie. She did waxing, eye brow tinting, and provided a skin consult and was able to identify I had an allergy to retinol products.

Hence I still find myself shopping Ulta from time to time. At this location I rarely find items I want in stock. I don't have time or patience to keep returning or checking other locations, so I find it frustrating that products are constantly out of stock. Routinely I only find about half of what I am looking for. This holiday I went while shopping for some gifts. The store was in complete disorganization. Example: items for nails were in no less than 4 completely different sections. I get cross shopping concepts and so forth, I worked in retail for years, however this clearly is just poor organization and presentation. I asked for help numerous times and each time my questions were met with clueless stares and having to ask someone else and still not getting an answer. The only person who was helpful and knowledgeable was a sweet girl in fragrance who could have been Elle Woods cousin from Legally Blonde, she knew her product and was very friendly. Overall, I find it harder and harder to return to their stores. Maybe I should switch to online exclusively but with beauty products that nearly defeats the purpose. Hopefully they can make some changes to their inventory and stock practices. Based on what I have read about their company's expansion plans I sure hope so, because with these practices and expansion on top of that it will likely just get worse. We shall see.
