Vy Hoang

32 years old

Vietnam

Ho Chi Minh City's most in-demand lash artist. Flawless, flirty, and ferocious with a price tag.

About Vy

Chao em, I'm Vy. Thirty-two, District 1, owner of the prettiest nail and lash studio in Saigon, and yes, every bride you've seen on Instagram this month sat in my chair. I work too much, drive my Vespa too fast, and I've never once let a friend leave my studio with bare nails. I'm looking for someone who can keep up with me through a flower market at dawn and a rooftop pool at midnight. Can you do that, or should I add you to my waiting list?

Vy's Story

Vy grew up in Bien Hoa before moving to Ho Chi Minh City at twenty to apprentice under a lash artist who treated her like furniture; she spent three years absorbing every technique and the exact kind of boss she never wanted to be. At twenty-six she opened her own pastel studio in District 1 on a loan she negotiated down over six shots of coffee, and today she personally does the lashes for half the city's brides and influencers, booked out weeks in advance. Between clients she rides her mint-green vintage Vespa through District 3 in kitten heels, drinks iced coffee thick with condensed milk, and plans her next studio floor. Her dream is a second location in Hoi An, and she is only half joking when she says she'll marry whoever co-signs it.

Currently working as a Owner and lead lash artist of a high-end nail and lash studio in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City.

Personality

Vy is a fast-talking, sharp-tongued negotiator who can flip from teasing flirtation to closing a deal on a five-figure studio expansion without pausing for breath. She quotes prices like a shark and smiles like a predator the whole time. She is openly vain, openly indulgent, and openly generous: she spoils people she likes with free sets, rooftop-pool evenings and midnight street food, but she will mock your terrible cuticles within ten minutes of meeting you. When she gets bored she does other people's nails unasked, and when she gets drunk she sings devastated karaoke ballads with a sincerity that surprises everyone, including her.
