My signature looks include lived-in modern cutting with customized movement, while accentuating your best features. I specialize in low maintenance blondes and brunettes, so my clients experience a seamless grow out and a soft color fade. In addition to cut and color, I love creating timeless upstyles for my brides. It truly is an honor to be a part of your big day!

(Before Nancy): Once upon a time, I tried a hair salon in Fremont and asked for a trim and natural looking highlights. Low and behold, I walked out looking like a freak show with chunky blond-white highlights (aka my hair was dead) and a choppy hair cut. Worst. Day. Ever! I went to Walgreens on the way home and bought a box of hair dye to cover the nasty nest on my head. I was traumatized!
One year later...the hair gods sent me to Nancy...
(After Nancy): After browsing thru Yelp, I found Nancy and booked an appointment ASAP. Best. Decision. EVER! Nancy totally lives up to the hype! She is the whole package: she listened to what kind of hairstyle I wanted, she made hair color/styling suggestions, she always made sure I was comfortable (water, soda, magazines, etc.), she massaged my scalp during my shampoo/conditioning, she gave me the most awesomest blowout ever, and to top it off, she taught me styling tips and tricks using different products. Long story short, my hunt for a hairstylist has ended here. If Nancy had stock, I would invest in it for life. No joke. Nancy is the BEST, period.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Samantha W.SOMA, San Francisco, CA2226Nov 6, 2023
I have been looking for a new hair stylist for a while,I am so happy I found Nancy! She made me feel really comfortable and had great communication, she repeated back and made sure she understood the style I was going for before she started. Her Texturizing skills are amazing even on my fine hair! The cut she gave me brought back my confidence! She gave me tips on how to style my new cut.
You can tell she loves her craft, she truly is an artist! Thank you Nancy!!! Cant wait for my next visit

I've been going to Nancy since summer of 2021. When I first went to her, I have to say, I've been having a difficult time with my hair. After about 6 months after my first haircut with her, and the tips she's provided, my hair is low key thriving!
Let's start off with location... She's located downtown Hayward off B Street. Although, parking kinda sucks, and it is the Main Street with so many cars, her place is so cute!
Inside her place, there plenty of seating, and a lot of chairs available. For the most part, whenever I go see her, I'm probably the only other client inside - just incase you guys get nervous for Covid reasons.
Nancy is so welcoming. She starts off asking you what you want to do with your hair, and she observes and starts framing your face to see if you would like it and gives out suggestions as needed. Then she washes your hair, and then she begins the cut. She's so knowledgable in the industry. She given me helpful advice on how to maintain my hair. For reference, I've always had to wash my hair daily because it's always getting so oily. So she's given me tips on how to prevent it. And after 6 months of following tips, and seeing what works for me, my hair is fuller, healthier, and thriving as I've mentioned.
She also sells products in house just in case you want to obtain professional items.
I highly recommend her. You won't regret it.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Meggan H.Alameda, CA3210Sep 29, 2023
Nancy has cut my hair multiple times over the last two years. I love the layers and lived in look she has given me. These have been my favorite haircuts in years.

Special shoutout to Ms. Nancy Vu. I am super low maintenance hair gal but I do love my hair long and want to give it a Hot Mama makeover and she did not disappoint. The first picture is my before pic and it was a peek-a-boo highlight look that I asked for last year. Fast forward a year later, I recently went back to Ms. Vu and waaaaalaaaaa.... My jaw dropped, my husband gave me a "How you Doing?" look. I feel amazing and I cant wait to see her again in the next 3 months to do a toner and make it bright.

Nancy is absolutely incredible and everything you want out of a stylist. She's professional, friendly, and diligent. I had my first cut by her and she righted so many wronged cuts and colors. I loved that she took the time to really understand what I wanted instead of getting right to work (expected gesture, but not everyone does it!). She gave me insight into her suggestions and made sure she clearly understood what I DIDN'T want. The cut speaks for itself. She gave me everything I didn't know I wanted in it. She was very detail oriented and stopped at every step of the cut to make sure I liked what I was seeing.
Hands down, BEST STYLIST EVER.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Deens V.Nashville, TN110838Jan 13, 2018Updated review
Updated and long overdue review!
Yes, she is still my girl after all these years (2012)! My go to, my hair angel, my super cool and fun stylist! I have referred friends, family, and even patients to her. She's just amazing and good at what she does. Thank you so much, for always taking care of my cut and color, AND good convos!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Jul 29, 2012Previous reviewMy absolute fave hair stylist by far! She is indeed amazing and knows exactly what she is talking about. I have been seeing Nancy for a few months now and I refuse to see anyone else at this time. Did I mention that she will be doing my hair for me for my upcoming wedding in a few weeks? I am super excited! Pix will be up soon :)

Last night I curled my hair, teased it like how you showed me, used the hair spray you recommended.. and hot damn! My hair was as amazing as the day I left your salon. You would be proud cause I sure was -with my tomboy self. Thanks for helping me find my girly potential. Don't stop doing what you're doing. You're amazing!!
Love,
Grace H.Jul 12, 2011Previous reviewI hired Nancy and her glam team for my July Wedding. It was ONE hell of a big special crazy busy fun exciting emotional day. My beautiful hair and make up -lasted from my 5am wake up call until 12am the next day! It was a long day indeed and my hair + make up looked picture perfect for every moment of it all. Her team arrived promptly at 5am they completed a total of 1 bride, 4 bridesmaids, 1 mother of the bride, 2 sisters of the bride, and about 5 random ladies all hair and make up before 10:15am! Amazing!! Everyone looked perfect and hair + make up was to their own personal liking. They even came to the reception for a quick touch up of hair and make up (remember it was a July wedding it was 98 degrees outside!!!) My make up was still awesome but the touch up did put my mind at ease. Nancy and her team was one thing I absolutely did not have to worry about on my big day. They are wonderful to work with, and even at 5am on your most emotional and stressful day, they'll crack jokes that make you laugh till you cry and make you beautiful all at the same time. I HIGHLY recommend Nancy and her team for all of your beauty needs. She does it all. In fact I had her team glam me up for my boudoir session, my engagement photo session, once for fun, and of course on my big day. They are exceptionally priced for the work that they do. Its a real steal what they offer. They even provide lashes! High quality hair and make up products. Clean brushes. They can turn a small 8ft x 12ft bedroom into a major salon studio. Trust me on this ladies, Nancy & Nina for your wedding or special occasion, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
Feb 8, 2011Previous reviewNancy has a true niche for beauty and strong passion for hair styling. It shows in the quality of her work. Its always a treat to have Nancy cut my hair. She reminds me how gorgeous my hair can be! Nancy gives me exactly what I want and makes it so that it works for me. She's a real professional always providing instant gratification! Venturing out into the unknown to have a stranger cut your hair and change your look can be scary.. with Nancy, you're in good hands. I've been going to Nancy for all my hair needs for years now. Every time I come in for a cut, I leave feeling brand new!

I have been looking for a new stylist and would love to give Nancy a try. I have left a voice message requesting for an appt a couple years ago, but I never got one call back. I messaged her on Yelp in the past also and ZERO response. I wanted to give one last try a few days ago and has gotten ZERO response. Super bad customer service. Definitely left a bad taste bc of the poor customer service.

It was my first visit to the Sugary Plum Artistry and because of COVID I didn't have my haircut done for more than a year. Got the best haircut I've ever had with Nancy! I have thick hair and it's very hard to manage and she thinned it well and was precise with how much hair I asked her to cut. I've been getting compliments as a result of her work! Definitely going back!
Thank you Nancy for the great look you gave me today!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
