    Kind, patient, talented, and just awesome!

    Lauren is the consummate professional! She is so responsive and was patient while I sent email after email, each with a host of questions. She put me at ease even before I made the final decision to move forward with her services. And today, after my hair trial, I'm so glad that I went with Lauren. She is so kind, helpful, and talented! And even after I ran out of hair ideas, she came through with her own and kept asking if there was anything else I wanted to test out. I'll have my makeup trial coming up with Lauren too, and I'm so excited to see what we come up with. You will not regret hiring Lauren for your hair and makeup needs. Thank you for being awesome, Lauren!

    Use Lauren Diana for wedding day makeup!!!

    A friend recommended Laurén Diana to do the makeup for my wedding and I am so glad I used her services!! There were 8 of us total that needed makeup done for the wedding and she offered to bring in another artist to make sure they could be as efficient as possible and they were both amazing!! The makeup lasted the entire day and night (19 hours in total!!!); it lasted through everything: happy tears, sun and heat, photos, and dancing. She even gave us some tips to help make the makeup last through the day's events! Lauren was incredibly flexible and communicative too. She responded to my questions the same day (sometimes within minutes!) and she helped make it work when I needed to add one more person who needed makeup services. I cannot say enough good things Lauren Diana, she was the nicest person to work with! It was truly the best experience and I highly recommend her for wedding day makeup!

    She’s amazing!

    I’ve known Laurén through mutual friends for years and when my wedding was coming up I immediately thought of her to do my hair and makeup. I have fine thin hair and wanted to “fake it” without using extensions for the big day. She is so easy to talk to and had some great ideas and everything turned out exactly as I asked and more! She also did an incredible job with my makeup and it all lasted the entire night.
    Because I had such a great experience, I ended up reaching out to her again to cut and color my hair…again she did exactly what I had envisioned. Thank you so much Laurén! I can’t wait to see you for the next go around.
    I highly recommend anyone utilizing her services, SHE’S AMAZING!! 🥰🙌🔥

    Just the absolute best

    Laurén is absolutely amazing at her craft. She did both my and my MOH's hair and makeup for my wedding and I can honestly say I've never felt more beautiful in my life. She's so so kind, and just wonderful to be around. I would trust her to do my hair, color, cut, make up, anything and everything she offers to be honest, she's that good!

    Lauren is the Best!

    Lauren is absolutely amazing. I could not be happier with how she did my hair and makeup for my wedding! She has been cutting and coloring my hair for years, so she even helped me plan those appointments months in advance so my hair was exactly the color, length, and style I wanted. In addition to being a brilliant hair and makeup artist, she is also such a fun person who answered all my beauty and miscellaneous wedding questions with great expertise. The energy she brought, along with the additional HMU artists helping with the bridal party, was so uplifting and exactly what I needed to calm my nerves the morning of the wedding. Lauren is the best!

    Amazing job highly recommend!

    I am truly blessed that I met Lauren and her team!! They made myself as well as my bridal party, mom, MIL and SIL's look amazing for my wedding day. My one SIL who never wears makeup had asked for a soft look and Lauren and her team went above my SIL expectations. Honestly I would recommend Lauren and her team with all your hair and makeup needs. :)

    My *Dream* Hair and Make-up Artist Team

    I wish it was possible to give Laurén and her team 100 stars, because they really are the dream team! From my initial outreach through getting ready on the big day, Laurén was amazing to work with. She is professional, flexible - which every bride needs when plans inevitably change, responsive, and a great communicator. Laurén will also keep you calm, laughing, and smiling when you're in her chair! I was impressed by Laurén's knowledge of beauty trends and styles, as well as her endless talent. She was able to recreate my vision for my bridal hair and make-up effortlessly and I felt so secure knowing she'd be with me as we got ready on the big day. Laurén and her team also did an amazing job styling the hair and makeup for my mom, MIL, and bridesmaids. Everyone was so happy and felt beautiful, including myself, and I couldn't have imagined our hair and makeup experience going any better. If you haven't already, I highly recommend reaching out to Laurén for your big day!

    Lauren has done hair and makeup for many family and friends and she never, ever disappoints! Lauren is professional, fun and someone you want on your wedding team! Hair and makeup last the whole day rain or shine and she will not leave until you are 100% satisfied. I highly recommend Lauren for your special day!

    Amazing Last-Minute Find

    My originally scheduled hair and make-up artist got sick the day before my wedding, and Laurén really saved the day. I found her on a wedding Facebook group. She was quick to respond to my post, provide me with her website portfolio, send me a quote and contract. Laurén asked for inspiration photos the night before and we met for the first time on my wedding day. With each step of putting together my hair and make-up, she would show me what she had so far and ask detailed questions to make sure we achieved my dream look since we had not had a trial. I opted for a half-up do and more natural-feeling airbrushed make-up with fake lashes both of which remained perfectly set throughout my photos, ceremony, and into my reception. She wore a mask throughout my service and cleaned all her equipment thoroughly after. She was a little more expensive than I had budgeted ($200 each for make up and hair), but she does have a studio and if services are done there prices are slightly lower. Overall would definitely book with her again, she was very easy to work with and did excellent work!

    Low stress, lovely people, BEAUTIFUL results

    Not only were Lauren and her team incredibly easy to work with and more than ready to adapt to a COVID-safe environment, but their hair and makeup skills are out of this world. I didn't have any clue how I wanted my bridesmaids hair to look, I just wanted them to feel beautiful, and it was truly lovely to watch them all transform into elevated, natural and stunning versions of themselves. That's one of the things I loved most about my wedding day, how Lauren and her team helped everyone to look like the most glammed up version of themselves, including me as the bride! I felt gorgeous, the experience was so laid back on my wedding day, the team was actually at the venue before I even woke up, and I couldn't have asked for a better team. Thank you, thank you!

    The most amazing and smooth experience!

    Lauren did an amazing job with my hair and makeup! I was so super pleased with the airbrush and how it turned out ( I will admit, I was nervous I would look very different!) She kept my makeup natural looking, yet so glamorous! I had many compliments on my makeup as well as my hair throughout the night! Lauren and her team are very professional and knowledgeable. They showed up early on my wedding day and wasted no time getting set up in the hotel room! I was so super appreciative of how they worked together to ensure a smooth morning of hair and makeup prep. There were a total of 8 people getting hair and makeup services and they finished with plenty of time for touch-ups! I can't thank her enough :) Look no further for your hair and makeup services in Northern VA!.

    Beautiful Work & Low stress!

    Lauren and her assistant did an amazing job making me and my 5 bridesmaids look our best! Despite very different skin and hair types, everyone looked lovely! It was incredibly convenient to have Lauren come to us and she was so efficient, we finished early!

    Flawless, Quality, 5star

    Lauren was so calm and professional. She made me and my girls look and feel beautiful and added last minute touch ups as needed! She even was gracious enough to take a few extra girls to make them feel special too! So kind, warm, and amazing flawless hair/makeup! What a wonderful choice!

    Best Hair and Makeup Artist!

    Laurén by far was the best to work with for my wedding! I was an out of state bride and long distance customer, yet she flew in a day in advance and ensured we did a trial for my wedding and set me up looking my best for rehearsal. She was easy breezy to work with, prompt, and had the top of the line makeup and hair products for me. I am typically a difficult customer and yet she listened to my wants and needs and gave me a look I could of only imagined. I highly suggest hiring her for your next big event that you need to look good for!

    Amazing. Great!

    Lauren is simply amazing at what she does! She was extremely understanding of everything I wanted and needed. She’s fast, efficient and patient. My bridesmaids and mom loved how she did their hair, and I LOVED mine. Thank you Laurén!! Book her before someone else does!

    Lauren is creative, professional and confident in her work!

    Lauren did such a great job with my hair and makeup that my friend is now going through Lauren for her wedding! She has a great hand, and can go from a lighter application to heavier per request. She works with you to get the look you are looking for and she is so confident in her work -- you need that when getting hair and makeup done for your big day! I will continue to recommend to people as I know she will make a lot of women happy.

    Fantastic and Professional.

    Laurén and her team made us feel at home. Wonderful to work with and flexible with changing and experimenting with hair choices even on the day of. We all enjoyed our time with her and her team and we had a lot of great comments on our make up and hair during the wedding! Big thank you, Laurén!

    Lauren is amazing!! We did a test run and she captured exactly what I wanted!! She was early to set up, allowing this bride to not worry at all about anything!!! She brought a second stylist and it allowed the time management for everyone to be done and ready right on time for pictures and to leave for the church!! She is so accommodating and will work with whatever you need!!! See pictures!! We got both hair and makeup done, and we splurged on the air brush, and it was so worth it!!!

    I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Laurén! From the first time I contacted about doing hair and make up for my wedding she has gone above and beyond to answer all of my questions and ultimately make me feel 100% confident that my hair and make up would be perfect for my wedding. She is not only a super warm and genuinely kind individual but also a seriously talented professional. This girl knows her stuff! I am terrible at conveying my vision when it comes to hair and make up but Laurén worked with me using pictures and asking questions to decipher what it was I was looking for. I would probably drive any other stylist crazy, but Laurén is so kind and patient and really walked me through the whole process. The day of the wedding she and her team were there early and all set up by the time me and my bridesmaids arrived. She made the whole getting ready process a breeze and I absolutely never felt stressed out at all before my ceremony. She made me feel absolutely stunning. I can’t thank her enough and you will not regret booking her for you wedding I guarantee it!

    Laurén is the BEST you can get, simple as that. You and your bridesmaids will look flawless on your day! My only recommendation is to either bring your own lipstick that matches or (if there's no option to have her on site for touch ups, do that!) my lipstick wore off after dinner, but luckily one of my bridesmaids had a similar shade so I could touch that up whenever I could run off on my own. Seriously, Laurén's creativity and talent is exactly what you want to invest in for your day!

    Laurén is truely a master of her trade. I hired Laurén to do make up for myself and 4 of my bridesmaids on my wedding day. She was timely, professional, and prepared to go when we walked in (a little late - stupid hair appointments!!). She can accomplish any look, listens to and rolls with ideas, and is just an all around rad chick. Oh, and her pricing is totally reasonable. I loved Laurén so much, I'm in the process of hiring her again for a different service (my divorce! Just kidding!). If you're looking for a friendly, funny, and kick ass make up artist, look no further than Laurén.
