I received a very unprofessional interaction with an associate. I had tried on some dry volume shampoo and asked my friend if she could find a mirror- so I could see if it worked. An associate passed by and looked at me and continued to walk pass me and made her way to the very front of the store.
She then spoke very loud, across the entire store and said with an attitude "Is that your bottle?" (What an odd question, because who brings in their own product to Ulta to try on?)
"No, this is the tester." I replied. "We don't have testers." She said with an attitude. She finally walked towards me, and held out her hand. "Are you done with that?" and reached out her hand, as if she wanted the product back and did not want me to have it anymore.
"No, I'm not done" I replied. She stared at me, and walked back up to the front. "Are the bottles without lids not testers?" I questioned, unsure of the answer... "No." she said. Then she started to whisper and speak about our exchange to the other store associates.
She was very defensive, rude and condescending. There was no need for her to address this issue across the ENTIRE store and then continue to talk about it to a group of associates.
Think twice about coming to this location.
EDIT: I reached out to customer service through Ulta, and was contacted by the Store Manager two days later. I appreciate Cassandra talking to me about the situation and she stated she spoke to the sales associate about her behavior.
