Miriam Duran – Founder of Lady Duran | Cosmetologist | Beauty Artist

The Artist & Professional

Hi, I’m Miriam! I'm a proud Honduran American, a licensed cosmetologist and esthetician, and the founder of Lady Duran. With decades of experience in the beauty industry, I’ve had the privilege of working with amazing clients across runways, stages, and salons—each moment shaping the passionate artist I am today.

My journey began in the energetic heart of New York City, where a rich blend of cultures, fashion, and creative spirit surrounded me. That vibrant environment ignited my love for beauty, significantly how a new hairstyle or glowing skin can completely transform how someone feels.

Now based in Fort Lauderdale, I bring that vision to life daily. Whether creating stunning hair color, delivering customized skin care, or simply listening to a client’s story, I offer more than services. I provide a personalized, uplifting experience designed to make you feel radiant and seen.

The Journey Within

Beyond the beauty chair, my journey has led me to something just as powerful: the art of self-love and well-being.

Lady Duran isn’t just about outward beauty—it’s about nurturing confidence from the inside out. Embracing wellness, practicing self-care, and living with intention have all become essential parts of my life, which I now use to inspire and empower others.

I believe in celebrating every person’s individuality and encouraging them to honor their beauty, strength, and story. Whether it’s a meaningful consultation or a heartfelt conversation, I strive to create a space where you feel uplifted, empowered, and ready to shine—inside and out.
