"Lisa Kalz did my hair and makeup for a documentary, and I never looked so good! A thorough professional, Lisa was prepared, organized, helpful, pleasant, and vigilant with her touch-ups throughout the four-hour shoot. Her presence is reassuring, and she is surely an asset to any production. I loved how she treated me, and people who know me in person were astonished at the enhanced appearance she created. I cannot recommend Lisa's services highly enough."
