We extend the private Higgs scenario to account for charged lepton and neutrino masses by introducing a private Higgs field for each lepton family. We analyze a model in which neutrino Majorana masses are radiatively induced. Contrary to previous models, the neutrino mass scale {approx}10{sup -2} eV is naturally obtained without excessive fine-tuning. The model requires the introduction of SU(2) singlet scalar fields, two charged and one neutral, h{sup +}, k{sup ++}, and {phi}. We discuss a possible realization giving a normal neutrino mass hierarchy. Our model fits data and predicts a nonzero V{sub e3}.
