SALON AIMEE in Honolulu, HI

I love the cut!! She's so good at what she does! Very sweet and professional! You won't regret it!

I been using Aimee services for about two years and always love the result! The owner is so nice and professional. Thank you!

Aimee is super sweet and soft spoken. You need to tell her what you want during your appointment otherwise you'll feel unsatisfied. Aimee will suggest, but not push you to make a decision about your hairstyle.  You have to know what you want. I love Aimee's haircuts and she does a great job if you tell her what you need. I can't wait for my next appointment with her.

Eun replied quickly and got me an appt in the same day. I also got a nice hair cut in less than an hour. Super satisfied and would go back again.

Over the past 20 years, my husband and I have been going to the same salon and hairstylist, but during our stay in LA, we received sad news from our hairstylist that her salon was being closed abruptly in January 2023.  I panicked because that meant our pre-scheduled January 2023 appointments would be canceled, and we'd have to find another hairstylist within a couple of weeks of our return home.  

Thanks to the Yelp Projects feature, I submitted a consultation request, and within a day, four of five salons responded.  I was impressed by the immediate response times, which allowed me to search for a stylist who could take my husband and me as new clients.  I liked the ease of online appointment reservations, the description of services, and the selection of each salon's stylists.  

Despite the online reservation feature, I decided to call Salon Aimee.  Aimee answered after a few rings, and after requesting her availability to cut both of our hair, she gave us appointments for the next day.  Since we had a day before our appointments, we decided to look for her salon based on the familiar-sounding address.   When we arrived at the listed address on South King St, we found Chong Qing Cuisine, and next door to it was Aloha Donut Company.  Luckily, other Yelpers had posted photos of the salon's exterior, so we peeked around the building onto Pāwaa Lane and found the salon and its private parking lot.

On the day of our appointments, we entered Aimee's cozy, clean and one-woman salon.  She's friendly and asked if I had photos of how I wanted to have my hair styled before we began.  I did show her a picture for hairstyle and shape reference knowing that my hair length was shorter than shown on the model.  I admitted that I've worn my thick poker-straight hair short, cropped, layered, and as a modified pixie cut for years because I don't spend much time on hair care.  Haha, long gone are my days of wearing waist, shoulder, or chin-length hair.  I want to wash and go!   There wasn't much conversation between us which is okay because I like the stylist to concentrate.  I was impressed that Aimee kept on a face mask, as did I, and applied a protective visor on my forehead when cutting my bangs.  That visor protected me from getting hair trimmings in my eyes and face.   Aimee deftly used both scissors and hair clippers and quickly cut my hair.  She completed the haircutting service with a shampoo wash, blow-dry, and style within 35 minutes!   I felt that my head felt lighter with this shorter haircut.

My husband's turn was next, and Aimee was just as professional, quick, and precise.  

We were also thankful for the first-time Yelp customer discount, and given that it has only been four days since our haircuts, we're already seeing our haircuts looking less shocking and taking their desired shapes.
