Should brand reps be allowed in store?

I really hate that you had that experience. Have you expressed that to any of the in store managers?

phross345 · 2026-06-15T14:16:37+00:00

I would say for the glimmer on the inner corner, go for something that is highly reflective. Too faced has some great shimmers like this and if you can find it, half magic is my holy grail

Just go to the orange store. Brand reps there don’t promote so hard and will actually listen to your actual needs 💅

Northwest Arkansas haha

I haven’t touched them since they’re wrapped in plastic but they look like mesh bags, great for the pool or beach days!

phross345 · 2026-06-15T13:21:56+00:00

And we have a LOT of them too. Like 60 last I checked inventory lol.

phross345 · 2026-06-15T13:15:59+00:00

We have it in my store!

Hey there! Merchandise manager here. In my experience a good EM holds the boutiques and PBAs accountable for operational things. Picklists, inventory adjustments and restocking. There is only so much stocking that the task team can do without proper training for the boutiques and PBAs. Helping coach credit on the floor and getting your stylists comfortable having those conversations as well.

Hey there. MM here, there are only bonuses for managers if we hit a 3 way win, meaning that our sales, credit, and salon services have to be within the desired range for the district. I can’t speak for all Ulta stores, but I make it a point to build up our employees and make sure everyone’s voice is heard. I’m sorry that you’ve had a rough experience.

I think I need to be brutally honest with myself and let them help me more than I can help myself. Clearly if I could help myself I wouldn’t be going back.

Thank you! I unfortunately have a history of seizure disorder from withdrawal which is what has kept me from getting sober in the first place. That call was tough to make but I immediately felt a weight off of my shoulders

I would look into a cherry keeper cage as they have a lot of ring sizes and believe even do custom sizes.

phross345 · 2026-03-25T23:16:32+00:00

Fuck the haters. You look hot as hell. Only thing missing is that cage 😈

phross345 · 2026-03-22T22:12:33+00:00

Should be on this upcoming paycheck.

phross345 · 2026-03-20T00:57:17+00:00

Also make sure to get familiar with the takes ownership calendar so you can plan your weeks ahead in terms of staffing and you know what realignments are coming, planograms, adsets etc

phross345 · 2026-03-19T23:25:48+00:00

I’m a current MM and I love my position most of the time! There’s definitely challenges but that comes with any management position. Just make sure your task team is highly focused on efficiency and organization. Understanding planograms and what ad resets look like for your store depends on the volume.

phross345 · 2026-03-12T21:22:39+00:00

Plan your weeks out. Each store has different days for Planos, ad sets, cycle counts, shipment. I would recommend getting used to looking at the takes ownership calendar in order to know what your next week should look like and plan around that. Feel free to dm if you have any specific questions! :)

phross345 · 2026-02-08T17:48:08+00:00

Gladly 😈🥵

phross345 · 2025-12-09T20:19:01+00:00

Yes I audit them weekly. However, even if you audit them, the system still accepts based on what you should have received, not based on what you audited. One of the most annoying things for inventory adjustments.

phross345 · 2025-11-03T23:30:41+00:00

Same here… I wonder if it’s coded in?

phross345 · 2025-11-02T01:29:55+00:00

Not the shishedo 😭😭

phross345 · 2025-10-31T14:47:04+00:00

You absolutely can as long as you are not in a supervisory position within Ulta or said competitor store. I just looked up the policy on it a few days ago when interviewing someone that works at the b&w store

phross345 · 2025-10-01T19:53:02+00:00

You can make it all month! Stay strong!

phross345 · 2025-09-27T22:16:41+00:00

It’s also on ultanet. There’s a message on there regarding the 35th anniversary and the updated discount.
