*hasn't dyed their hair is almost a year* "Did you just get your hair done?" Ever since I started going to Nancy, I always get compliments like this, months after my initial appointment. As someone who values low maintenance hair (grows out well, don't need to come back every couple of months), I will always go back to Nancy and her team! I first came to Nancy when I was super blonde and my previous stylist left a harsh line between my roots and blonde. Nancy fixed it right up and what's even better is that I got more blonde as time went on (which was the goal). Nancy is great at deciphering what I think I want be what I'm actually looking for. I also have an aggressive amount of baby hairs which she always accounts for.

I've struggled to find a hairstylist that can do beautiful soft (not choppy) layers and i'm so happy i found annabelle!! she was amazing and very knowledgeable! gave me tips on how to care for my hair and my scalp issues, and also helped me decide what type of layers to get based on her expertise. she is the only one i trust with my haircuts moving forward

Got a full bayalage on Wednesday by Anabelle and I absolutely love my hair!! Was initially just going to do a partial since I haven't colored my hair in more than a decade but after talking about what I wanted I figured to go all out instead of halfway. It was worth the wait. I may have gone a little stir crazy around hour 4 but in the end I looked in the mirror and couldn't believe that way MY hair! Thank you Anabelle!

It has been over 6 months since my last cut and my hair was full of split ends. I have tried a few salons in the bay area but always left unsatisfied with my cut. My layers were blotchy/bulky and felt lifeless with no dimension. I was literally traumatized from my last cut and had to wait for my hair to grow out, so I can get it fixed. I was on a hunt for a new salon/stylist and came across Sugar Plum Artistry. The salon is located in downtown Hayward and has a cutesy vibe to it. My appointment was with Nancy and she exceeded my expectations. I appreciate that she shows you little tricks and care for your hair. She did an outstanding job transforming my stringy hair! Finally got my layers back, yay! Take a look for yourself! THANK YOU, Nancy!

I've had quite the hair journey. I went from virgin hair to ash brown to lavender blonde to ashy blonde to black blue to gray and then all black again. And then I became a mom during a pandemic and dealt with unkempt pandemic hair. Gone are the days where I can be adventurous with my hair since I'm juggling working from home and caring for a toddler. So when my friend told me about Nancy and I saw that her expertise is live-in cuts and color, I knew it was exactly what I needed as a new mom! She was so patient with me when I was trying to describe what I was looking for and yet not entirely sure how to explain it! So when my final color was done and she was blow drying, I was blown away (pun intended!) by how much the color was exactly what I was envisioning! The blend was so natural and seamless and really made me feel like a new person. It's rare that I get an opportunity to do something nice for myself now as a new mom so I'm so glad Nancy took the time to really deliver on such a great look! I'm really trying to be much more low maintenance with my hair these days and I love that this is a cut and color that I can just wear effortlessly. I want to say I'll definitely be coming back and yet I know I won't need to for a while because she did such a great job with a cut and color that will grow out well!

My hair was getting super long and unmanageable so I was looking for a hair stylist that could give me a lived in haircut, an Anh Co Tran-esq masterpiece. My sister suggested Nancy because she has trained under Anh Co Tran so I signed up for her waitlist during SIP. I was contacted shortly after she opened her salon and made an appointment for November. I totally wouldn't have minded waiting that long but, thankfully she was able to squeeze me in yesterday. She took my temperature and sanitized in between clients. After I got in her chair we thoroughly discussed what I wanted. I showed her some pictures and she was very receptive. I feel like she really took the time to find out exactly how I pictured this haircut on myself. After agreeing on length, she got started. The shampoo was great! Loooved the head massage. My occipital region really needed it! No water splashing on my clothing or face at all. During the haircut I felt that she was careful and intentional in all of the cuts that she made. She really took her time which I appreciated. After the cut was done she put in product and explained what she used and how to use it. I'm clueless when it comes to hair product and don't use it as often as I should! Then she blow dried and styled my hair. Also showed me a tip for creating that effortless look! ;) I really love my haircut. It is definitely what I was looking for. It brought out my highlights and brought life back to my hair. Thank you, Nancy, for the beautiful cut and wonderful experience at your salon!!!

Nancy and Sugar Plum Artistry are fantastic! A friend recommended Nancy to me over 2 years ago after she got a super great haircut here. I came here to cut off over 11 inches of hair to convert back to a modern lob, and Nancy nailed it. I struggle to create volume because I have thick, heavy, very dark brown hair which is mainly straight with a slight wave, so it tends to lay flat on the top and expand out at the bottom. I've historically had trouble finding stylists that just intuitively understand how to work with my hair, but she immediately knew how to help create volume through layering and removing weight. The salon itself is on a cute street with nearby street parking and some parking lots. It's so very clean inside with great lighting and plenty of space. The vibe is relaxing, comfortable, and they have great music playing. She's been booked up since re-opening post-lockdowns so I was glad I could nab a spot in November. She did a great job keeping customers updated on her schedule once the shop re-opened, and even personally texted when spots were available. If she doesn't respond right away, just be sure to stay patient because this is a small business that is very busy!

Went in for a cut with Annabelle! She is SO good! I am super particular with my hair cut. She was patient, she listened to everything I told her & then communicated with me everything she was doing. It was a nice, relaxing experience & I'll definitely be back. Thank you Annabelle!!

This review is super late! (back in Feb '21) This was my first time here and Nancy was so warm and welcoming. She is a hair wizard goddess and transformed my hair with just a haircut! I've had my haircut done around the Peninsula, San Francisco & Sacramento and with this being my first time in the East Bay, I am happy to have found my new hair salon. Thank you Nancy and I'll be seeing you again soon :)

Omg so amazing!! I am in love with my hair and my husband gave me a good nod and was like "hey girl". Thanks Nancy for making me young and beautiful again. Nancy is so gentle and I laughed constantly with her awesome personality. All other salons I've been to, they always tug on my hair especially when they are blow drying to trying to comb through my hair, I felt no tug at all and she is completely blunt of what looks good and what not. I am no beauty expert and she walked me through every single process she was doing and how I can take care of it after. I would totally recommend her to everyone I know and I find my forever stylist. She is so popular that she is booked more than two months out, can guarantee it is worth the wait.

Long layers hair cut that makes you feel like an IG model

Nancy is the best! First time at the salon and not going to be my last. She cut my hair and I feel like a celebrity. I got a long layer cut. She's not pushy on products or anything! Price is reasonable, especially went it's lux! Want your hair to look like those pics you find on Pinterest to show your hairstylists? Then go to Nancy!

Nancy fixed it right up and what's even better is that I got more blonde as time went on (which was the goal).

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.

It was my first time dying my hair at Jim's…read more Tracy did partial highlights all over my head. It came out beautiful. Loved her work so much!

Jim and his team at Jim's Hair Salon are wonderful. I recently went in for a corrective balayage…read morewith highlights and babylights, and they spent several hours carefully working on my hair. What impressed me most was his attention to hair integrity. Instead of trying to push my hair too far in one session, he was very honest and set realistic expectations based on my previous color and the condition of my hair. I originally wanted a very creamy pale vanilla blonde. Jim explained how far we could safely go in one appointment without risking damage or breakage. I really appreciated that honesty, because protecting the health of my hair was clearly his priority. Even though we couldn't go all the way to my final goal in one session, he absolutely set me up for success. The result is a soft dimensional blonde that looks beautiful and natural, and interestingly my hair actually seems to look lighter and brighter as the days go by, especially when sunlight hits it. Jim clearly plans the process in stages. I will most likely return in a couple of months for baby highlights to brighten the crown and continue moving toward the creamy vanilla tone I ultimately want. The salon itself is also a great environment. Jim and his staff are friendly, welcoming, and professional, and you can tell they genuinely care about their clients and the health of their hair. Overall I'm extremely happy with the result and very grateful for Jim's skill and honesty. If you're looking for balayage, blonde highlights, or color correction in the area, I highly recommend Jim's Hair Salon. I also strongly recommend calling and making an appointment. Although they will take walk-ins, you just never know when somebody - who already has an appointment - is getting a corrective balayage with highlights and babylights and is hogging up all their time. LOL

This review is for Libby…read more I've been seeing Libby for over two years and actually travel back to the Bay Area just to have my hair done by her - that's how good she is. She's a true color magician. She helped me transition through the awkward grey stage at exactly the right time, and later brought me back to light brown in a way that blends beautifully with my fast-growing greys and grows out naturally without constant upkeep. The moment I knew I could fully trust her was when she gave me a short haircut, something I'm usually very hesitant about and absolutely nailed it. Finding a stylist who is genuinely excellent at both color and cutting is surprisingly rare, and Libby is both. She listens carefully, understands the science behind how color and texture behave, and designs styles that actually look great as they grow out not just the day you leave the chair. She's also warm, funny, and incredibly easy to be around. Even my husband, who normally avoids hair maintenance altogether, got a cut from her and loved it. If you care about grey transition, natural grow-out, or just want low-maintenance hair that still looks polished, Libby is the one.

I'm writing this review for my mom (she has dementia)and these are my thoughts and observations…read more For one, this was the first time here because my mom's hairdresser lost her place in Dublin, so she found a stall here. Anyways, the place itself is pretty convenient since it's located by the freeway. The place is surprisingly pretty big and spacious and my mom's hairdresser is always patient and polite. I will admit probably for my mom's next visit I'll have to stick around a tad longer and help my mom and her hairdresser when my mom gets her hair washed. So not everything there is I guess ADA available, but it's a minor thing for now since my mom has very limited mobility but can move with some assistance. As for the hairstyle, mom is always happy and I personally think makes her feel as normal as she can get these days and being content let alone having another outside interaction besides with me is always a good thing!
