My previous stylist was a one-woman show and it rescheduling with her wasn't easy (in my opinion, this is a good problem for her to have!). I decided to do my online research to try and find a salon that was a bit closer to home, but still with that trendy flare I was needing in my life. Salon Rae Cal was it! Located conveniently near the highway in Worcester, I was sold on that aspect, but not just yet. Instagram is the cousin of Yelp if you didn't know. One must always search on other forms of social media before building that trust. I did that and called immediately after seeing the amazing work they did there. Sasha was my stylist and the vibes I got from her instantly allowed me to relax and trust her. While we were doing my toner, she said "did you want more lavender in here?" I said, "Sure, why not?" She said she liked it when my hair was wet and when she dried it, I know we made a great choice to do it! While she was cutting my hair she told me she was going to be taking a class on cutting bobs. What you should always look for with your stylist is them continuing their education and staying up to date with trends. These ladies in Salon Rae Cal work together so well, more like a sisterhood, and it shows. My question to you, reader, is why aren't you picking up the phone to book your appointment, too? You aren't going to be disappointed.

Like girl I just showed you a look and you only give one recommendation. That was the worse. Then Jessica came along and actually helped me.

I was so happy she was there because otherwise I would have left with an attitude and back to Sephora to get help!! I would suggest customer service classes. I wish I could give me stars but my first interaction wasn't great so I cannot. I ended up purchasing more than I came for due to Jessica thanks for helping

I had never been to an Ulta and decided to give it a try (I'm usually a dept. store shopper for my…read moremakeup). I made a bee line for the MAC area, where a freelance worker was helping a woman. I waited patiently for them to finish for it to be my turn. I wanted to buy a whole new supply of makeup and told the freelance worker this. We had a brief conversation and then the freelance worker told me she'd be right back. After waiting for her a while and I decided to get up from the chair to look at some MAC colors. Do you know when I got up, I saw her fully helping another customer as if I wasn't sitting waiting for her. She wasn't just answering a few questions, she took on another customer while I've been waiting for her, making me wait even longer. And after I had already waited for her when she initially was with the woman. This really upset me, I felt so insulted to be treated with no regard at all, and I was making a big purchase. I was prepared to leave, but not without speaking to a manager first. That's how mad I was. Here's where my review goes from 0 stars to 5 stars. The manager was excellent (I don't know her name but she was super pretty.). She showed up as me and the freelancer actually started to fight. She came into an upsetting and hostile situation and quickly diffused it. She was able to get this situation that had clearly gone off the rails back on track and in a good way. She offered to have an Ulta employee help me with my purchase and sent in J Lynn. J Lynn is really a 10-stars. She was excellent too. Deeply knowledgable about all the brands and about makeup. Her makeup looked beautiful and she had a personality to match. When I tell you she was great, she was great! Focused, efficient, thorough, friendly, patient, sanitary. The products and colors she picked for me were on point and what I ended up purchasing. She was so professional, had great work philosophies (like she believes every customer should have a good experience), was very helpful. And it was very easy, as the client, to work with her. I totally trusted her expertise and she wasn't salesmen-y at all. She understood my budget, money concerns and even time concerns, concluding the sale by the time set. My experience with the freelancer was exactly what I wouldn't want and my experience with J Lynn was exactly what anyone would want shopping at Ulta. What started as horrific and unsalvageable ended not only as a very positive experience but I'm so thoroughly happy with my make up and everything, that I actually decided to make Ulta Millbury my new place for all my makeup needs (no more dept stores.) Based on this outcome, I can't deny Ulta and J Lynn a glowing 5 star review. It's fully deserved, imo.
