Daniela Lai is a New York City–based Senior International Makeup Artist & Hairstylist with over 25 years of experience in bridal, beauty, fashion, editorial, special events and private clients. Her career began in Milan and continued through London and New York, including professional experience with Christian Dior in Milan. That international background still influences her work today: polished, refined beauty with a modern touch and an emphasis on enhancing each client’s individual features. Daniela specializes in bridal makeup and hairstyling, from soft natural beauty and luminous skin to sophisticated glam, Hollywood waves, romantic updos and sleek, modern styles. But her work goes far beyond weddings. She is also available for special events, red carpet–style beauty, photoshoots, engagement sessions, corporate events, private occasions and other on-location hair and makeup services. Every look is personalized to the client’s features, personal style and occasion, with the goal of creating beauty that feels effortless in person and photographs beautifully. Known for her calm energy, professionalism and efficiency, Daniela works on location throughout New York City and selected areas of Long Island. She can accommodate individual clients, bridal parties and larger bookings with additional artists when needed. For Daniela, beauty is never about changing how someone looks. It is about creating the most polished, confident and beautiful version of each client for whatever moment they are celebrating.
