I love her free spirit and creativity on my mane. She made me feel like a queen on this international women's day and I feel like a unicorn. Her attention to detail is relaxing because I don't have to do any of the thinking or decisions. I leave it to her since she is an expert. read more

Aimee Marquardt Salon - Just left the salon after a cut and highlight. - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Aimee is patient, funny, kind, and best of all, AMAZING with blondes. My hair is delicate and fragile and she keeps it blonde and beautiful without compromising the integrity of my locks. Her salon is small and personable. It is located next to a Santa Monica City structure - free for 90 minutes. A short walk to the beach and the Promenade. Aimee does gorgeous blowouts as well as cuts and extensions! I've done it all with Aimee these past six years and have always been happy! My partner has also been getting his hair cut with Aimee for about 7 years and always looks so handsome when he come a home from seeing her. He has a small spot on top where he is thinning and she does a fabulous job at cutting it to give the illusion of fullness up top. Thank Aimee! Sorry this review has taken me six years #procrastination read more

Finding a stylist that you can trust with your hair is so important! And Aimee has always been there for me and my locks. She not only has a wonderful personality that lights up the room, she has such talent and love of the art of hair. I have been going to Aimee for years. In that time I have had short funky hair, pixie cuts, crazy colors, natural color, longer hair... I've been all over the map. I know that if I come in with a precise idea of what I'm looking for, she will execute it- just as well as if I come in with some general ideas and leave the rest up to her. She will work with you in the way it works for you to get the cut, color and experience you need. Also! I feel it's important to add that for a stylist working on the west side, there is NOTHING pretentious about Aimee. This was so key for me not being from LA. She is skilled, professional and down to earth. And with a location blocks from the beach, you can step out of the salon and right into a beautiful leisurely stroll with the wind blowing through your newly pampered hair. Or wonder down into the shops and restaurants on the Promenade. read more

I feel inspired to spice up my review with some ideas I have for an ad for Aimee Marquardt Salon! Aimee Marquardt Salon is life inspired design for the hair on your head. Hair that moves with the wind and the rain and the waves and the dancing. Aimee took a good look at me and my head and my hair and asked me questions about my life and the things I do with my body in and out of doors. I asked her questions too, and found out that she was a longtime resident of the Hawaiian Islands, which informed her early hair styling career. She is deeply inspired to design a haircut around who you are and what your body does in the world and how your hair naturally moves in the earths' elements. Aimee Marquardt's hair style is not about the blow dry! Of course I love how silky and full and fantastic my hair looks and feels after she blows it dry. I feel that Aimee's cut and style is about me and my life style. She was obviously thinking practically about the hair on my head as I move through life and my preference to not spend lots of time on it. We did not do color this time, but we discussed it. I have silver coming in on top and old blond highlights going out on the bottom and Aimee showed me how lovely it was to allow them to blend naturally. I love the outcome! Who you are and how you move in the world is her inspiration. Whether you're getting out of the ocean and toweling your hair dry in the sun or you're coming in from a windy day into a fine restaurant, Aimee gathers all of the natural data of you and your lifestyle to use as reference for the life inspired design of you and your hair. read more

Aimee is a visual artist that can transform hair, a face, an outfit or broken jewelry into a masterpiece. She knows how to make people shine in their best light. She has many year's of experience, great insight into curly hair and how to manage it with a busy lifestyle. I like the practical beauty tips she shares and the smile on my face I leave with after spending sometime in her chair. We always laugh and have fun and the next thing you know, woop there it is, you look fabulous! She gives the best blow dry with a twirling action to make natural waves that I simply love (see pic). If you want a hair dresser that is a great listener and communicator than can educate you on how to achieve and maintain a certain style then Aimee is your girl. read more

Aimee is wonderful, she's full of smiles and welcoming energy. She'll book your appointment to work with your schedule and is truly an artist!

Aimee Marquardt Salon - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Aimeé is a phenomenal and super talented stylist, she was an absolute BLESSING to find. I got a beautiful hair cut, style and blowout. and glaze. I have curly hair and just moved to LA so I'm VERY picky about who does my hair. Aimeé is a true artist. She took time to make sure that every angle of my hair matched my diamond shaped face. It was honestly the best service for my hair I ever had. My hair held up great today when we shot videos at the beach. I would travel to have Aimeé style my hair, but fortunately I won't have to as I'm moving here to Santa Monica. I highly recommend Aimeé to anyone, she's a gem! read more

Aimee is the best! I can't wash my hair without her! And I LOVE her new salon! You can't go wrong with Aimee's hands! read more

I love love love Aimee!!!! She is extremely talented and a really rad gal. I am Asian and my hair texture is fine and limp;(. I was in desperate need of good hair dresser since mine relocated. My girlfrind referred her to me saying that she really knows how to work with Asian hair texture because she lived in Hawaii for many years and has a lot of experience and knowledge with working with different hair textures.The cut she did for me gave me tons of volume, I wanted the tips blunt and she did that (refer to pic). I don't have to do much with the blow dry and you could see the layers and hair falls perfectly into place. I used to have to spend forever blowing out my hair but I'm a firm believer now that great styling lies in the cut. I'm super happy and highly recommend Miss Aimee! Bonus: she's sweet, nice, listens and cares, yah no more snootty hair dressers!! read more

Aimee Marquardt Salon - Hair by Aimee Marquardt!! Love love her! - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Aimee did an amazing job with my curly hair! And I will be going back for color soon!

First time coming to Aimee's salon, and I'm so glad I found her here in Santa Monica. She's experienced in textured/curly hair, which is exactly what I was searching for! Not only did I get a fabulous new cut, but I had a blast chatting with Aimee about life and Netflix shows!! If you're looking for a stylist to work magic on your curly tendrils..my girl Aimee has you covered! She takes directions very well and gives great suggestions for your hair type. I love how she explained her technique and approach. Thank you very much Aimee! I recommend her to all my curly haired sisters :) read more

Great, individual service. Aimee Marquardt is an artist. She took me from dark brown to bright red (using bleach) and Olaplex to stop damage, Goldwell color and a Brazilian! She turned me on to extensions and makes them look so natural! read more

Aimee Marquardt Salon - Aliens have determined my hair color. - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I am so excited for my second time getting my hair done with Aimee! Over 4 months ago she literally changed my life and hair forever with her "breaking the base method". After years of hair breakage and disappointing highlights, it has been the first time I have ever loved my hair! I receive countless compliments on the color and cut. Even after 4 months I cannot even see regrowth and my hair is finally growing! I live in San Diego and will never think twice about making the drive to get my hair done with Aimee. She is an artist and also an amazing person!! read more

Aimee Marquardt Salon - Loving my "breaking the base" hair coloring method! Lasts for over 4 months! - Makeup Artists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Aimee is absolutely the most talented hairstylist I've ever worked with. Her cutting technique and knowledge of different hair types and textures is absolutely superb, she always cuts my hair exactly the way I want it and goes above and beyond to offer tips for styling my slinky hair that can't hold a curl. I have been going to her for years, and she's always worked with me in whatever ways I need. It comes naturally from her sweet, caring personality. Not to mention that I love the new location, but I would actually drive anywhere for her lol. read more

Aimee is my hero! I had some trouble finding I good stylist after my move to LA and am sooo grateful to find her! After learning that some friends went to Aimee, I stalked all her posts on social media and found images of happy clients with gorgeous hair. After Aimee worked her magic, you can count me among them. She took the time to understand my hair and my needs for a cut that I could wash and wear. She worked its natural tendencies to give me a fabulous style that dries to a sassy, messy long bob on the beach or on my way to work. On the rare days when I have time and feel inclined, I can create a whole different look with a blow dryer & flat iron. I really can't say enough about just how great a stylist I've found in Aimee. She's the best! read more

Aimee is a brilliant stylist with a wonderful spirit. I've been getting my hair done by her for 5 years now. She is very talented and stays ahead of the game by constantly educating herself on new techniques and trends. She listens to your desires and needs and makes sure you are happy with the results. She is an artist and loves what she does. She is fun and a real sweetheart and you will have a great experience with her. Her new salon is in a superb location with easy parking and lots of other fun stuff to do in the area. read more

An absolute gem. Not only a warm personality, she brought my dreams of straight hair to fruition. Great location in Santa Monica, easy to get to! Would definitely recommend to others! read more

Aimee is so freakin sweet and magical. I usually try and make my hair as curly as possible with very little maintenance but it hasn't been working out very well for me lately, my hair has just been so flat. She figured out the problem immediately realizing my hair was way too heavy up top and with some quick cuts and layers she fixed the issue! I'm honestly shocked at how much easier it is to style my own hair and get the volume I want. I hate doing my hair or curling my own hair, I just like to wash and scrunch it with product but since my hair was too heavy that would never work as well as I wanted. But now I can truly say I have not had a bad hair day since she cut my hair and my styling time has been cut in half. My natural waves look SO much better and my hair has volume again!!! And to top it all off, she even gives a neck massage when she washes your hair. Best ever. Thanks Aimee! read more

Highly recommend. She's lovely and if you want hair you'll adore go to Aimee!
