Dianna is OUTSTANDING! She did hair and makeup for my wedding; she perfected both. I was an 'from out of town' bride and scheduling was tricky. Dianna not only 'made' time for me, she was thorough and VERY talented. Loved my time hanging out with her too (AND her puppy)!!!

Dianna and her team did an amazing job. They did hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and a slew of other female wedding guests/family. They were professional, prompt, and prepared! Everyone's hair and makeup looked amazing (most importantly my own)! Thank you Salon D!

I used Salon D for hair and make up for myself, flower girl and mother for my destination wedding in May. I did a trial with Daisy a few months prior. She was very knowledgeable, professional and had great recommendations. Daisy handled the majority our services on the day of the wedding and continued with the great service and attention to detail. Alton did the flower girl's up-do and was great with her. The owner Dianna was terrific to work with setting up the trial and final service especially given that we were from out of town. I am glad I found Salon D. They made what could have been a stressful process very comfortable and relaxing.

The team at Salon D NOLA could not have made me feel more comfortable and at home...not to mention, I felt and looked gorgeous for my special day. I told someone recently that I never felt more beautiful than on that day, and it was true. Thank you, Deanna and Patrick!!

Salon D saved the day!!!! There was some miscommunication about hair on the day of my wedding- which left me and 7 bridesmaids without anyone to do our hair! Needless to say, I was a wreck!!! One call to Salon D and they rushed over to our hotel (which was 3 blocks away). Diana and Patrick were miracle workers! Not only did they finish all of our hair in under 3.5 hours but our hair looked AMAZING!!! I will shout it from the rooftops about how wonderful Salon D, Diana, and Patrick are!!!

I had a destination wedding in New Orleans and chose Salon D Nola off reviews. Dianna and her team were great. I went to the salon for trial hair and a manicure. Dianna hit the nail on the head with the trial and gave me a stunning look. I also received the best manicure of my life. It lasted 3 weeks!The day of the wedding the team came to the house where we staying. My airbrush make-up and "beachy" hair lasted all day and night. My bridesmaids were very happy with their hair and make-up too. Dianna's prices are reasonable and her team is hip and trendy. I highly recommend Salon D Nola.

Dianna and Lara did hair and makeup for my bridal party and the moms. We all loved them! I made quite a few last-minute changes concerning who was getting hair and makeup done and where we were getting ready, and Dianna was great about it. They were so fun to work with and did a great job!

Dianna and the girls at Salon D did my hair, make up and nails for my wedding. They also did my bridal party's hair. I went in for my trial two days before my wedding not really even knowing how I wanted my hair. Dianna worked wonders! The day of my wedding she and the staff came to my hotel room. They were very sweet and helped me and my bridesmaids relax and not stress too much! Thank you so much Dianna and Salon D!!

Dianna did my hair along with my maid of honor, mother, and mother in law. She did a beautiful job and replicated the pictures that I had sent earlier. She also did our makeup which was glamorous but soft. I didn't feel like I was wearing a tone of makeup and it lasted all night. Dianna is wonderful and the best part was she came to the hotel so we didn't have to worry about extra travel time! Thank you Alexis

Alexis, thank you for the kind words! It was great being a part of you wedding day!

Dianna and Lara at Salon D were great to work with! I am so happy we found them. I don't live in Louisiana so planning was a bit difficult, but Dianna was so accommodating and responsive throughout the whole process.They had me completely at ease the morning of the wedding. Both Dianna and Lara came out to the church to do hair for 9 of us. They were on time, professional, and everyone's hair came out perfectly. Wouldn't have used anyone else!

response 11/20/2014

Thank you so much Lauren for choosing Salon D NOLA, we really enjoyed being a part of your...

wedding day!

Thank you to Dianna for making me beautiful on my special day. My hair and makeup looked great until the wee hours - pretty remarkable because we had an outdoor ceremony on a NOLA Summer day. I looked glamorous but not overdone and received so many complements. My groom was so pleased! Dianna and team are super laid back and accommodating. Super creative retro updo's and makeup. Amy gave me a terrific mani/pedi that lasted forever. On street parking is easy around the salon and I understand Dianna will even come to your hotel or venue to get you looking fabulous too. I am now a regular customer for color and haircut, mani/pedi. The last time I was in a bride to be came from Florida to have Dianna do her color before her big day. She wouldn't trust anyone else. Whether you are local or visiting, need a quick blow out, color/cut or special updo and makeup - I recommend a visit to Salon D. Love those ladies!

Thank you so much, we loved being a part of your special day!

I have been going to Dianna since I moved to FL in 2005, she is fantastic. Even though she has been living in New Orleans for a few years now, Dianna flew back to St. Petersburg, FL to do my hair & makeup as well as 3 BM, the MOB & my officiant's for my big day. Everyone's hair & makeup was stunning & we had so much fun getting it done. If you are having your wedding in NOLA or just there visiting & want a great blow out or up do I highly recommend Dianna at Salon D Nola. If you are lucky enough to live in NOLA make Salon D Nola your new go to place for all of your hair, make up, nail & beauty needs.
