Meet Aimee
Hello there! My name is Aimee Lam. I’m a licensed hairstylist and makeup artist who specialized in bridal makeup & hairstyling for the last 16 years. Helping my client looking and feeling like the most gorgeous version of herself is my biggest goal and I aim to help make the experience as fun and relaxing as possible.
Why wedding hair & makeup? This is a question I get asked all of the times. It’s simply because I was drawn to colors, faces and hair at a very young age. When I was in my first grade, my mom took a makeup course but I was the one using of all the products that she brought home. I would beg my mom & my aunts to let me paint their faces. If they said “No, I’m busy right now,” I’d push, “How about let me paint your face while you’re sleeping?” Young but relentless! My grandma has a fun story about my “hairstyling talent” when I was in 2nd grade. This was the time when curling iron wasn’t even around in Vietnam. One day, my mom came home and found me with really curly hair and she was shocked. She was about to get mad thinking who took my daughter to the salon for a perm without my permission. She quickly learned that I made my own hair curly with just water & some sticks I found around the house. I wet my hair and used the burnt incense leftovers (about toothpick size) and some rubber bands to roll my hair section by section. When the hair was dried, I got myself a full non-chemical perm. How did I think of using incense sticks? Honestly, I don’t know. But I’m sure I got the idea from watching how stylists do perming at the salon. I’d like to think that story was proof that I was born to work in the beauty industry.
Another reason why I chose this industry was because I love to laugh and connect with my clients. When working together, you’ll find that I’m very gentle & personable, meticulous with my work and well-organized. As your artist I will give you my sincerest dedication to help make planning the morning part of your wedding day as smooth and as fun as possible!
