Laura was great at color matching and suggesting products to help with shine. She had a lot of helpful tips.

The staff at ulta are always so kind and cheery :) of course a makeup store is always fun, but having a great staff really adds to the experience. read more

This is my go to store for makeup and skincare. I feel like Ulta locations vary A LOT in terms of service, and this one is top notch. Every time I've walked in and needed help, I was able to quickly find someone knowledgeable to help me. They're super conscious about price points, and won't try to sell you a $100 face cream unless you specifically indicate you're open to it. The associates here care more about helping you find the best product than making a quick sale. One time I came in after having watched too many TikTok videos about setting powders, ready to spend money on them. The lovely associate I talked to spent over half an hour explaining how powders work and why my skin type didn't need them. I was really grateful for her time and expertise. read more

I made a quick dash to Ulta this morning to purchase some color touch-up for my hair. I was promptly helped by Ashley with a warm smile and escorted me to the hair dye section. Wanting to offer me proper guidance, as I peppered her with questions about which dye would best suit my hair needs; she quickly introduced me to Jordan who was beyond helpful in assisting me with my first "home" hair-dyeing experience. Jordan was very knowledgeable and thorough with her explanations. Thank you, Ladies! read more

I will never advise anyone to go there. They said the charge per hour. The girls that worked there are very slow. They have to make sure they keep you there. something that will take them two hours. They keep you there for four hours so that they can make money for the company , my experience with them was very bad. The money is not my problem, but they mess up my hair. I can never go there again. read more

The absolute best service! They were so helpful with finding the exact product I needed for my beard!

I've been coming to this ulta for 3 years, I've came back for tiff shes so amazing but today I had a girl (I don't remember her name) who unfortunately is making me never want to step foot in this ulta again. I thought I was getting a nice quiet relaxing hair stylist NO I DID NOT!!!!!!!!! She had a random girl who I think was her friend they were talking the WHOLE time I was in her chair!!!!! The only 3 times she spoke a single word to me was the critique that I was crossing my legs and tilting my head, Hello??? I was trying to make sure it looked nice (which it looked okay at best) also apparently my purse was in the wrong spot??? Anyways if you want to go to a hair stylist you'll have no peace and quiet with and constantly get critiqued with a mediocre finish go to her! read more

everyone likes to be accused of stealing when they don't have a receipt. Bought 2 curling irons for my granddaughters paid cash and did not use my ulta# and I choose not to have an account I did it this way so if it was the wrong item they could take it back without a problem but no. Even though they sell the same item if I had bought them somewhere else I would have gone there Bad policy bad customer service read more

Ulta has one of the best selections around! I love the products and the employees are around to help if needed.

A person came in for help to find the correct color of foundation and was told 'we do not help with that'. What was your reasoning? because when I was in the lady even put it on my skin to confirm it was the correct color..... DO BETTER ULTA!!!! read more

i literally got yelp because of how upset i am about my haircut. Summer did my mom's hair (a cut and a balayage) yesterday and it went smoothly. so i was thinking that today would be fine. i showed her SEVERAL reference photos of how i wanted my hair to look, only for her too cut it far too short and make me look like a boy. i already have insecurities so this haircut makes me feel so much worse about myself. i dont understand how she could mess up so badly either after all the references i had. read more

Just moved to the area in the last 6 months and as a mom of 2 little kids, I have little time to spend on myself. When it came time to think about a haircut, I decided to give Ulta a try. Specifically, I wanted to get bangs and when I made an appointment with Lisa, her energy and enthusiasm reassured me about my decision. The salon actually opens 30mins before the store which is great during this quarantine. Anyways, I could not be happier with the haircut Lisa gave me. I will def be back!! read more

I am a first year college student away from home and wanted to find a place to get my hair done while I'm school. I had never been to an Ulta for salon services but I am SO SO happy I did. My new forever stylist, Michaelah, gave me exactly what I've wanted every single time I've been in there. Whenever I leave, I feel so amazing and beautiful with my hair/ eyebrows. They are all so kind and helpful when it comes to asking questions, or wanting hair advice. I love this place and will continue going back and raving about it to all who will hear about it!! read more

Having been a loyal customer of ULTA for a few years now, I can say I've never left with a haircut I wasn't happy with. I've also had my color done a few times, from tips to all over color to ditch those grays, the ladies are quite skilled. They are skilled in the products they sell, and very friendly. I will say I'm picky about my hair and don't let just anyone.touch it, and I haven't a single gripe. Appointments are suggested as its a busy place, but certainly worth your time. read more

I was a bit nervous about stopping at this store after reading all of the reviews but I just have to share my experience. I stopped in for 3 specialty items that can't just be picked up at Target- I called ahead to be sure they had them and the lady who answered the phone was really pleasant and helpful. I stopped by and was really pleasantly surprised. The staff was helpful, friendly and fun to talk to. I watched as they interacted with other customers and they were kind and helpful to all. I can't imagine why there are so many poor reviews, but I give these ladies a 4+. I will be back for sure! read more

Everytime I come here I have bad service from the employees. This time, my daughter asked an associate about peel off masks and where she could find them. She showed her the first mask down an aisle and said it was a good one. My daughter looked at the product and she said excuse me but this one is a wash off one, I was looking for the peel off kind. The associate then 'huffed' and pointed to the other side of the store and said 'those are over that way, you just need to look for them' then walks away. Frustrated we walked over and started looking, another associate asks if we needed help and she then showed her several products and ones she likes to use as well. If she had not helped her, I was just ready to walk out. Many of the employees are so snooty. read more

This is the Ulta I frequent for things such as hairspray and other beauty essentials. I like that it's a one-stop-shop for that sort of thing. I want to give them more stars....but once I was here looking for something specific and asked a staff member who happened to be standing in the expensive cosmetic section for help. What I needed was not in the expensive cosmetic section but the staff person wouldn't walk over to the department store grade cosmetic section to show me where the item was. I ended up leaving irritated and empty handed. read more

I am rating on just the salon experiences I've had. The store is fine, slightly larger than a few other Ultas I've been to, and MUCH more busy on weekends. Back to the salon- the gals are nice, but I'm not paying solely to have friendly conversation. I have now tried this place twice in the last 6 months (with two different stylists) and the haircuts were terrible. This last visit has left me with the worst cut I have ever had. I am usually not picky about my hair- I always keep it the same, "just trim up the ends and make the framing I have around my face blend". I didn't come up with that line- I was given it by my old stylist that I, sadly, am too far away from now. So I've been trying for awhile to find a stylist that gets my simplistic approach to my hair (and doesn't set me back $100 each time). My first trip here left me with uneven layers and an uneven color. It wasn't bad enough to have redone, but definitely didn't leave me feeling like I've found "my soul-stylist". This time around I had a coupon for 50% off a haircut. Given my last experience I was hesitant, but I'm such a sucker for good deals (aka cheap). I sit down, give this new stylist my "line" and settle in for a quick trim. I should have known something was up when the conversation abruptly ended and she starts cutting my hair furiously (after already drying it) and her brow was in a constant furrow as she's muttering "this part just doesn't want to cut right". Short story long, I walked out of there with two distinct layers all around my head and a few square (yes, square) chunks all throughout the back. I can't even bring myself to go back to have them try to correct my hair as I'm afraid that I'll get another chop job. Maybe the stylist I find to fix this mess will be "the one"... read more

I was actually pretty stressed about finding someone to cut my hair after going to Great Clips for so long. I got really lucky at Ulta when I found Sunni! She is AWSOME! I love my hair after every visit. She is very personable and I feel like she really knows what she's doing. I would recommend her highly! read more

I really don't enjoy this store anymore. The checkout in the front corner instead of mid-store is an improvement. But the product testers are often missing, empty, or just old and disgusting. Not fresh. There should be more guidance to customers reminding them not to stick their dirty fingers into the products or apply them directly. I saw teen girls actually putting on lip gloss -onto their lips - right from the applicator. Ugh. The perfume section doesn't have testers for some new scents, just the same old ones we have smelled a million times. Lots of things are sold out, newer nail polish colors, makeup, etc, are all very picked over. Feels very run down and drugstore, even in the 'prestige' area. I had an interesting experience at the Benefit brow bar. The gal who did my brows was a lot of fun. But the stool was a torture device, why make it so uncomfortable?! And it is awkward for the gal to work on us when we are seated so high and wobbly. The brows I left with were well groomed but she used so much dark pencil and powder I looked like Groucho Marx with big black square brows. (My hair is not black). It made for a fun selfie, before I washed them off and put on a more natural look. read more

Ulta is a mix of a couple different types of stores. First, there's the 'drugstore' section, which is basically makeup and skin supplies that you'd find at Target. Prices are slightly higher than Target (comparable to a Walgreens, I'd say). But, when I went there were quite a few brands on good sale (buy one get one free). So, I'll probably pay attention to their ads and go in to stock up when my staple products go on sale. Second is the hair supply section. It has higher end brands, like Paul Mitchell, etc. Prices were similar to other salon/hair supply stores i've been to. Third is the nail section. It contains higher-end brands (OPI, Creative Nail Design, etc.). I was pretty impressed by this section - I haven't found another store that has such a varied selection of higher-end nail products. Fourth is the 'Sephora-like' section of the store. It doesn't have the selection of Sephora, but does have some of their brands (DDF, Thomas Roth, Too Faced, etc.). I'd definitely prefer Sephora. Lastly there's a small salon in the back. UPDATE 8/2/08: Ulta also has a free rewards program - you can find some info about it here: https://www.ulta.com/ulta/myaccount/loyalty_member.jsp?_requestid=830645 read more

Completely disorganized, and messy! For a Saturday with plenty of associates on the floor, the service was poor! I wanted to grab some particular items and was directed to parts of the small store instead of personally helped to find these items! read more

Ulta Beauty - NYX display!! A complete mess! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Woodbury, Minnesota

Don't waste your money. I went there expecting a professional haircut by a "master stylist" since I hadn't been able to get to a salon for over a year. I brought a picture showing a short cut that was fluffy & feathered over my ears & in the back - not a short pixie cut. Summer asked me to keep the picture on the counter so she could refer to it. Unfortunately it is apparent that she never looked at the picture because the cut I got did not resemble the picture in the slightest. I might as well have gone to Sport Clips & gotten a man cut because that is what she did to me - super short over my ears & scalped in the back. I am more than disappointed & will never recommend Summer since she clearly ignores the wishes of the client. What a waste of money ... read more

Sunniva in the salon is amazing! 100% WILL be coming back just for her & will be referring friends to her. I had no idea what i wanted to do with my hair cut so we talked about it and she cut my hair the exact way i envisioned! LOVE SUNNIVA STEIN! 10/10 read more

We have gone to Ulta several times. Their selection of items that we use was convenient for us. One day this winter we went to pick up some Paloma Picasso and Fekkai Glossing Cream. I had been doing some minor things in the yard so I was wearing nice jeans and a clean Carhart coat. I stopped in the mens fragrance section and was immediately offered help by an employee. I declined with a "No thanks, I'm just looking." Within a minute the same employee offered help again. I really was just browing while my wife picked up her items so I politely declined again. I thought "that's strange." When the employee then stood at the end of the aisle staring at my actions I realized what was going on. OMG. She wanted me out of the store and was sort of being obvious about it. My wife even saw it from another section. In previous visits we were treated just fine, but I had been dressed differently. I was now made to feel ashamed. It was really horrifying. We won't go back. read more

I hate coming into this ULTA because I always feel unwanted. I walked into the store on my bday and was NOT greeted. I had to approach a worker myself when I had a question. As I was deciding between which Naked pallet to get, I turned to my side and see the older woman who worked with Too Faced/Benefit (i forget which one but she's old) and she gave me the NASTIEST look ever. I was so in shock so i moved over. Even as i was moving to the other aisle i could see from my side view that she was still giving me a nasty look. I've never felt so unwanted in a store. read more

I really don't like this Ulta, but it's the only one near where I live. The customer service here is HORRIBLE. No one ever comes to greet me, nor do they greet you at the door. Yet they all stand there talking to each other. There was this one time I had to WAIT to talk to the employees because all 4 of them were standing in the circle just talking, and they didn't even acknowledge me until I had to speak up. Like are you serious? It's common sense that a customer needs your attention if they're looking right at you and are not standing next to the cash register because obviously I had no intentions to be checking out any time soon. They never care about their customers. Their products are ALWAYS gone. I'm a big fan of nyx cosmetics, but they are ALWAYS out of stock. And I mean always! They need better employees. Instead of worrying about your make up, you guys should worry about improving your customer service skills. I've never had to rate a place so poorly. Another recent experience I had: since this Ulta is the only one close to me, my cousin (who is well educated in cosmetology, hair, beauty, whatever you name it), she told me to go buy blue shampoo because they had a deal 2 for $20 (I currently have highlights right now) & when I asked an employee where the products would be at, she didn't give off a friendly vibe. The way she talked to me was harsh and she questioned if my cousin even knew what she was talking about (what blue shampoo is used for). She questioned if my cousin was also a educated/certified as a cosmetologist. Like really?? The only thing I asked was where I could find the product. I knew what I was looking for and WHY I needed it.. Once we got to the product, she kept questioning me if i know what to use it for & why. & at this point I was getting irritated with her attitude and her questions. Why would I doubt my cousin when I know she is educated in this stuff and she's the only person I allow to ever touch my hair. I ended up getting the blue shampoo and purple conditioner (because they ran out of blue conditioner). When I was ready to check out, she decides to mention that she can probably find the blue conditioner somewhere in the store. At this point I'm just like whatever and want to leave the store already. Every time I come Ulta, it's a bad experience! Not because of the products, but the people who work there! read more

By far one of the best Ultas in the area. Very clean and organized. Typically very well stocked with testers and products to buy. Sometimes it can be hard to find someone to help you though, especially if you shop after 5pm. read more

Amazing store! Clean, organized and easy to find items. Super helpful and friendly staff - especially Amber! My friend and I happened to start looking at Lancôme BB creams and Amber helped me compare colors, match what my skin tone needs and proceeded to cleanse my face too and try a bunch of different products! She was the most fun to sit and chat with - super funny, personable and patient. So happy with the product recommendations she made, my face regimen seriously needed her! Thanks Amber!! read more

I shopped at this Ulta location last week and the service was terrible. While at the checkout counter the girl ringing up my purchases never even looked at me! She was looking everywhere else seeming quit irritated and put-out. At one point I even purposely stared at her instead of scanning my card to see if she would look. She never noticed and we would have just stood there if I didn't go ahead and swipe my card. Also, there were at least 4 employees walking around the store and I was never greeted or asked if I needed help. In fact I didn't see them greeting or offering help to anyone in the store. This is not my first bad experience at this Ulta location but it will be my last. I am only writing this review as the customer service has consistently been poor. There are other cosmetic companies that value their customers and they will be getting my business in the future. read more

AMAZING! I had a oops hair from Fantastic Sams, Ulta took me in last minute and they all stay an extra 2 hours with no hesitation! Ulta has not only gained me but teo other customers! I will be spreading the word! read more

Workers kept persisting that I open up a card after I kindly declined 3 times. I felt really uncomfortable after that, one no should be enough. I also felt that the workers talked down to me as if I was stupid and didn't know what I was talking about, as if they were better. read more

Definitely my favorite store for beauty essentials. They always have what I'm looking for and lots of things I didn't know I was looking for but decided I had to have! It's one of those stores that I can't leave without buying something to try. I've always had great customer service here too. read more

Absolutely HORRIBLE customer service. I left feeling so irritated by the unprofessional and unhelpful staff. I came in with my sister to buy a gift for our other sister's birthday. Even though there were probably 4 workers at the door, NOBODY bothered to ask us and help us find what we were looking for. We knew what we wanted but weren't sure of where it was in the store exactly. We came in with more than an hour left until close but no one even bothered to help us because they were more worried about their "big event" that was happening the next day...We asked a worker where the product we were looking for was located--she just pointed in the general vicinity and didn't even take the time to walk over and show us where it was! We asked another woman after because we could not find the product and she, again, was too preoccupied by their big event that was occurring the next day. My sister and I felt absolutely disrespected as customers. Even though it's somewhat close to closing time, your customers should be your NUMBER 1 priority, NOT an event happening the next day. We ended up buying the product only because it was a gift for our sister's birthday--if I was just looking to buy items for myself, I would've walked out empty-handed without a doubt. One of the top worst customer service experiences ever. read more
