One of the best Ulta shampoo sales is the Jumbo Love Event, also known as their “Liter Sale.” This markdown event happens once a year, about a month after the Ulta Black Friday sale. It runs roughly three weeks, offering serious deals on those heavy-duty sized shampoos and conditioners (that’s 33.8 oz, in case you’re wondering).

We're talking up to 45% off brands including Redken, Pureology, Biolage, Paul Mitchell, and Joico. To save even more, stack Ulta coupons, like $3 off a $15 purchase, on top of their sale prices. Shopping these sales is just one of the many Ulta Beauty hacks we can teach you.

Keep in mind you can also get liter-size haircare deals in the summer, too. You'll find them during the Ulta Big Summer Beauty Sale which runs for about three weeks between June and July.

Ulta Jumbo Love is an annual, 3-week sale with big discounts on large shampoos and conditioners.

The Ulta Jumbo Love Event, also known as the "Liter Sale," runs for about three weeks and gives you some sweet deals on big bottles of shampoo and conditioner, like the ones that are 33.8 oz (aka 1 liter). You can snag discounts of up to 45% off on brands like Redken, Pureology, Biolage, Paul Mitchell, and Joico. Plus, if you've got some Ulta coupons lying around, you can stack them up to save even more.

This sale happens once a year: typically right around Christmas. 

KCL predicts the next Ulta Jumbo Love event will begin Wednesday, Dec. 25, 2024.

Ulta-Jumbo-Love-Sale

Ulta hasn’t officially announced the next date for their Jumbo Love event, but based on what they've done in recent years, we here at KCL predict that it’ll take place between Wednesday, Dec. 25, 2024, and Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2025. It should start online Christmas Day and then also become available in stores on Dec. 26.

How do we make our prediction?

Historically, the Jumbo Love sale tends to start right after Christmas in-store, lasting for nearly a month.

The 2023-24 sale ran from Dec. 25 (starting online) through Jan. 21.

Ulta liters are up to 45% off during the sale.

Ulta shampoo sale prices vary based on the brand. I’m sorry but the $10.99 liters we saw in 2019 are a thing of the past. Regular prices have increased over time, so the “sale” prices have as well. Select brands have a set price, whereas others offer a percentage off.

Paul Mitchell is one brand that I’ve personally seen make a huge jump in price. During the winter 2020 Jumbo Love Event, I was able to buy Paul Mitchell Tea Tree shampoo for $16.50, but by the same time a year later, that bottle was “on sale” for $28. In 2023, the price for a liter of Paul Mitchell Tea Tree shampoo was $34.99 (reg. $50).

Use a coupon to save even more during the Ulta shampoo sale.

One great perk of the Ulta Jumbo Love Event is the ability to stack the low prices with an Ulta coupon. In previous year’s sales, Ulta offered a $10 off $40 hair care coupon and a $3.50 off $15 coupon that could be used with the Jumbo Sale prices. Score!

So how do you find the Ulta coupons? The first step is to go to their website. Coupons will always be on their homepage. You can also sign up for Ulta emails. It takes just seconds, and you’ll get special coupons, discount codes for free shipping, and free product samples.
