Dagmara provided hair services for myself (the bride), my mom, my sister (MOH) and two nieces (flower girls), and we cannot imagine having had a better experience. Dagmara traveled...
to my home in Venice. She was timely and highly professional. She has a great personality for doing wedding hair - efficient while keeping things fun. Everyone's hair looked absolutely stunning. She was so patient and kind with the flower girls. I cannot recommend DS Hair & Makeup Creations enough! She was a big part of what made our wedding day so fun.

We used Dagmara and her team for our hair & makeup this past December (12.07.24) and we couldn’t say enough good things!
First - my hair was exactly what I had envisioned. I wante...
d a boho side braid that had some depth, and it was beyond what I wanted. It was still holding up the next morning!
Second - All of the women who got their hair done looked beautiful & still had their hair in place at the end of the night!
Third - She and her team are a well oiled machine. Everyone had their hair (9 women) and makeup done (8 women) in under 4 hours. It was such a blessing to be able to sleep in a bit on the morning of my wedding and not start hair & makeup at 7am!
Last - Their energy! They set such a fun vibe during the day! We all laughed and enjoyed the morning together so much.
My hair was perfect, the team was perfect, and I can’t wait to recommend them to all my friends!

I sent the email. Her prices were very reasonable. Even though she is based in Nokomis area, she was willing to travel to my wedding location in Naples. When it came to the day of the wedding, she was amazing!! She was willing to do the hairstyles that I wanted for the bridesmaids with enthusiasm. Paula, our makeup artist who is also part of DS Hair & Makeup, did a fantastic job with makeup. Our hair and makeup held up all night--including the outdoor beach ceremony! Dagmara and Paula had great energy and were so kind to all of us in the bridal suite. They helped set the tone for the rest of the day. I will be recommending Dagmara and her team to my friends for sure!

We found Dagmara luckily through the Knot about six months before our wedding. Dagmara was quick to respond throughout the entire planning process. She is professional, genial, and...
LGBT friendly. For our trial, she was able to squeeze us in last minute as we were traveling from out of state. I came with an idea for my hair and once she saw me and my hair she suggested a completely different look, and it was perfect! She wants you to feel comfortable with how you look and feel and she will give you honest feedback. Dagmara is the hair stylist and she typically works with Paula, who is the makeup artist. Both ladies showed up on time for our big day and worked efficiently. They were able to work through nine hairs and ten makeups in about 3.5 hours. All of our girls were beyond happy with their hair, which stayed in place for 6+ hours for a beach wedding in June. Dagmara is reasonably priced especially for the quick pace that she works and end product that she puts together. We would definitely use her again!

She is very talented and I can almost guarantee she will be able to produce the vision you have for your hair.

In addition, day of, they were very flexible and I was able to add on another girl for hair and make-up the day of wedding. The hair and make-up lasted all day and even after I jumped in pool and ocean! Highly recommend. :)
