Last month- I booked an appointment at Ulta for my hair on a special day. Before scheduling online,…read moreI made sure to call and confirm that I wanted simple curls with volume at the scalp. I wasn't sure if I wanted any additional styling. Over the phone, a representative told me to book the "formal event hair" service, which costs $80. However, she assured me that if I only got curls with volume and no additional styling, I would be charged $50. She emphasized booking the formal event service to secure the stylist's time, in case I decided to add more services, but she reassured me that the price would be adjusted accordingly. Following her advice, I booked the formal event service. On the day of my appointment, I arrived with my makeup done and my hair washed. The stylist did my curls, and I decided to pin one side, but in the end, I only got curls. The entire process took just 30 minutes since I have very thin hair. I then asked if they could help me apply lashes, so I purchased a pair at Ulta. They told me it would be an additional $11 since applying lashes would be an additional service. I agreed to the charge. Once my hair and lashes were done, they handed me a ticket to take to the register for payment. I was charged the full $80 for the hair service, plus $11 for the lashes. I explained what I had been told over the phone, but the stylist advised me to speak to the cashier at the register. At the register, I explained the situation to the cashier, who then called the manager. After five minutes, the manager arrived and asked me to explain everything again. I repeated the story, but they asked if I remembered the name of the person I spoke to on the phone. Unfortunately, I did not, but I showed them my phone history as proof that I had called their number on that specific day before booking. The manager just stood in front of me, saying, Umm, umm, while speaking to someone on her walkie-talkie. At this point, I was already late for my event. I asked if they could simply adjust the price and charge me for the service I actually received. The manager responded that it was difficult and that she didn't think they could do it. Our conversation was calm and not heated, but at that point, I didn't want to ruin my mood on my special day, so I just paid and left. The frustrating part is, if they could easily charge me $11 for lash application service, why couldn't they adjust the price for the hair service I actually received? I only got curls, and my hair was done in just 30 minutes. $80 for that? Come on, Ulta. You're already overcharging by at least a dollar or more on every item you sell. You could do better but you won't!!

Visited for a facial with Jennifer yesterday. Overall the experience was quite lovely, relaxing,…read moreand refreshing. My skin was hydrated and glowing afterwards. Unfortunately, there were a few glitches. It wasn't clear where to park so I have quite the walk in 102 degrees, the swimming pool has no shade so I was not able to dip in, and when leaving, the validation for parking did not work at the gate. As a side note, their cookies were quite delicious. Though I liked the services, I'm not sure I would travel this distance for a facial. I do think if you are staying there for other events or have a package of services it is quite a relaxing spa outside the hustle and bustle of Austin.

While the staff members are kind, it seems they force their own idea of what you should do with your hair onto you. After the first time of them doing that to me earlier this year, I thought "maybe it was just this stylist?" so I went again recently. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. My bangs were cut shorter than I asked, and they are very obviously crooked. It has ruined 4 special events that I was part of this week. I didn't even want to go to one I had today, just because I was embarrassed of how all my photos were turning out with such a terrible haircut. ---------- I went in and asked for my bangs to just be shaped - no dramatic length change. I was at a loss of words whenever I was turned around to look at my reflection and see that I got something completely different from what I had asked. The stylist seemed excited, and I just looked at her in disbelief. She asked if I wanted her to change anything, but you can't paste hair back on, so I mustered out a stoic "no"...didn't want more of my hair to be butchered off. Hair grows back, I get that, but I specifically went here to get my bangs shaped for special events that I knew I was going to be photographed multiple times for. Little did I know it was going to ruin my memory of each one.
