I don't go in Ulta very often but lately it seems like every time I do - there's...cripe...I don't even know where to begin.
Two weeks ago, I was there looking for travel bottles of entirely too expensive shampoo/conditioner that the store supposedly had in stock. An gay guy I guess with perfectly, perfectly, waxed eyebrows and makeup, including mascara, flitted around the store a little, found the products for me, while discussing the merits of the shampoo vs a similar product. He was polite, as is every one in the store, but I don't know why, I don't want to be waited on by a guy wearing mascara anymore that I want to be waited on by a women with a five o'clock shadow.
So today I went in for another hair product and the girl that checked me out had bright green hair with dark roots, tarantula eyelashes, lips outlined in dark liner and a huge white spiderweb painted on her face. What the heck was up with that? Is it National Clown Day, or National Be KInd to Spiders Day or something like that? She also had a button on that said Smile which immediately made me even crabbier.
When did it become a thing (and I'll grant you I don't see it often) to be a representative of the store and not look a normal person and why does it bother me. Is it my age or something, I really don't get it.
