    Looks like I have been coming to Salon Aimee faithfully for the last three years! Aside from the convenient location (within walking distance from home), scheduling an appointment is super easy (I'm usually able to get one within a few days of texting). I send photos of the cut I'm interested in, and we do a quick consultation of how much I want cut off. I am not particular about my hair so I leave it in her capable hands. There is no fuss, no chit-chat (which I like), no upsell -- quick wash, meticulous cut, blow dry and simple styling, and you're done. No more than 45 minutes, while Kpop plays in the background. I will try to remember to bring a magazine next time though! She has her appointments timed to the very minute, so don't be late! (She was finishing up a client as I arrived; another client was parking just as I was leaving.)

    OMG! Aimee is amazing! "she is a master for cut. I finally met with the hairstylist today after three months of growing my hair out. She cuts my hair with care rather than rushing through it. The hairdresser spends time with her clients and will make adjustments slowly. You can put your trust in her with your head!

    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.

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

    Happy I found this small business! Aimee is great when it comes to consulting the style I wanted and also can alterate with options too. Price is moderate compared to other places you can go to.l for haircuts or highlights (depending on type of service you're going in for). Parking is right in the front. Upon arriving to the salon, it's located in a narrow street next to a restaurant. You'll either miss it or drive past by accident, so like everything else, make sure you google map here! Haha. Very family-friendly and Aimee has beverages for you if you need. And the company of k-pop music videos which I really enjoyed : ) It's my second visit here and I did a balayage highlights, deep shampoo clean, and hair cut.

    I actually like this length.

    I was looking for a reputable hair stylist that specializes in Asian hair. The only other hair stylist I really liked was Alan V. who was at Chop back in 2006. The other I went to would literally chop my hair really short. This time I was looking to color my hair and do something different. Salon Aimee is near where I live. The directions from other reviews helped me find her place easily. I also google mapped what the place would look like. The place is small, clean, and atmosphere is open. I liked that it was not crowded. Aimee is amazing, quiet, and made me feel very comfortable. I appreciated that there wasn't any small talk and she answered my questions and let me know she didn't have the exact color in the photo I showed but she had something similar. I trusted her judgement and let her do her thing. I explained that I didn't want to cut it too short and showed her the length. She gave me a mirror and I let her know where to cut. The color was lighter than I expected but it wasn't anything too bright that I felt uncomfortable with. The cut is a little shorter than I wanted but not to short to where I'm cringing. It's definitely different! I have had lowlights done before and I used to box dye my hair. I am happy I chose her! There was a small discount and I bought special color shampoo and conditioner from her. I recommend her and would go back to her again! I think I found my stylist!

    Amy (Eun) moved Destiny Salon down King St. to 1738, to a nice, big, new salon behind Hata Restaurant called Salon Aimee. Come see her!

    Amy (Eun) moved her Destiny Beauty Salon to a nice, spacious, sunny new spot down the street to 1738 S. King St., behind Hata Restaurant, across from Zippy's & Washington Intermediate. She's still super nice & akamai with all things about hair. Look for her orange sign (photo attached)!

    I can't describe to you how badly I needed a cut so I scoured Yelp to find Salon Aimee. My curiosity peaked while reading past reviews and felt it was NECESSARY to give her a try. I sent a message through Yelp to inquire about availability, since trying to squeeze in a cut before leaving on a trip. ONE MINUTE later I received a response and within the next 5, I had myself an appointment! Communication through Yelp message was so convenient. The day of my appointment, I received a reminder text with instructions to enter through the back door. Driving directions were a little difficult, as the salon is not at all visible from King Street. I ended up driving around the block twice before I called Aimee for clarification. She described her location as "directly across Zippy's, behind Mama's Dish". Seeing these landmarks, I turned off King Street and found a small parking lot with 3 stalls located next to the "back door", referred to in her text. As I entered the salon, Aimee welcomed me and asked what kind of cut I wanted. It took a few minutes of me trying to describe the style before quickly pulling up some photos of a LOB cut. She also asked if I wanted shampoo, which I declined since I was going home to shower anyway. Surprisingly, she got right to work with the scissors. This was my first experience having my hair cut "dry". It wasn't completely dry, but barely misted and definitely not wet enough to have flattened out the waves from my hair being in a loose bun all day. I'm not gonna lie, I was skeptical and had a feeling that after I showered I would see some long pieces of hair that were not even with the rest and subsequently missed being cut. (UPDATE: I was extremely pleased, my hair was even!) Throughout the cut, Aimee asked if the length was ok and made sure I liked it thus far. She was very soft spoken and came off as a genuinely nice person. For a 3 inch cut, style, payment and photos (for Yelp, of course), I was out of there in 25 minutes. Everything was so fast! FYI: - take a left immediately after Mama's Dish restaurant. The salon and parking are on the left side a few feet after the turn. - communication through text/Yelp message is easiest. - have photos on hand. As with every other salon, you don't want to be surprised, if in case something was miscommunicated. - the salon is currently offering a 10% discount if you check-in on Yelp. Show Aimee your phone when paying. - credit card payments welcomed through the Square App.

    Hair is much healthier without dead ends :-)

Extremely reasonable pricing (compared to where I'm from, San Francisco Bay area in California), I was shocked $75 for a very individualized cut, wash and blow dry, with lovely conversation along the way. Glad I waited til getting to Hawaii to get my hair did! The salon was clean, took a hot minute to locate cuz we didn't follow the driving instructions on their website.

I had some idea of how I wanted my hair cut this time around, but wasn't too sure. I was comfortable with asking Kelly on her thoughts because I wanted direction and advice - I had my hair cut elsewhere before, and they either weren't able to provide me recommendations regarding my hair type or just took my request and weren't able to give me proper direction. My haircut turned out way better than I expected! Kelly was great to chat with during my haircut session and made me feel comfortable.

    I've been going to Dee for over 5 years now -- even back before he opened his own salon -- and…read morethere's a reason I've stayed this loyal. I usually go to him for both my haircuts and balayage, and every single time I leave loving how my hair turns out. His skills are truly top tier compared to other stylists on the island. I tried several hair stylists around Oahu before finding him, and none of them compared. Dee is incredibly talented, but what I appreciate most is his honesty. He'll always tell you what will actually look best for you rather than just doing something trendy that may not suit you. His salon is also absolutely adorable. The space has beautiful pink décor with gold accents that gives it such a warm, stylish vibe (definitely feels like his wife's aesthetic!). Both Dee and his wife are so sweet and welcoming, and their energy makes you feel like more than just a client -- it makes you want to keep coming back long-term. For anyone trying to find the salon: it's located on the 10th floor of the Ala Moana Center office building. The entrance is directly across from Genki Sushi inside the mall, which makes it really easy to locate once you know where to go. Most importantly, I trust Dee completely with my hair. That's why I don't go to any other hair artists or stylists on Oahu. He genuinely cares about his clients and about the quality of his work. He takes pride in his art and never wants you to leave disappointed. On top of that, he's a great conversationalist -- and I say that as someone who is naturally pretty introverted. Every appointment feels like catching up with a friend. Dee is also someone who carries a lot of wisdom, and seeing him always feels like a breath of fresh air. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair, Dee is it.

From the very first message, Lauren at Darlwas responsive, empathetic, and incredibly kind. She truly listened to what happened and what I was hoping to achieve. When I arrived, she was welcoming, professional, and explained everything in a way that made me feel comfortable and informed. She performed a full color correction and completely transformed my hair. My previous layers were choppy and uneven, about six inches apart, and she beautifully blended everything so it looked soft and seamless. She did a root melt, corrected the harsh highlights, gave me a gorgeous blowout, and styled my hair to perfection. And she did all of this while pregnant. Truly amazing. Hair is very important to me culturally and personally, and I was devastated after my first experience. When I left Lauren's chair, I felt beautiful again. Yes, hair grows back, but how you feel walking out of a salon matters. I work in an industry where I am constantly interacting with customers, and looking and feeling my best is important. Lauren gave that back to me. Thank you, Lauren, for your patience, your care, and your incredible talent. I am beyond grateful for you and the confidence you restored in me. Wishing you all the best on your motherhood journey. Your baby is so lucky to have such a strong, compassionate, and hardworking mama.
