DOUBLE CROSS is a must watch Ghanaian romantic movie which won two beautiful gongs at the last Ghana Movie Awards for Best Cinematography and Best Make-Up & Hair Styling.
The lady behind the makeup and hair styling on the set of the whole project is no other than NANA AMA ATSU of Dzidzis brand.
She is the damsel who invariably brought out the beauty on the faces of the casts shown in the movie. She has worked with a bunch of top notch celebrities and still counting.
Her passion to turn everything into beauty from the hair to the face has stood her out, even as it did on the night of one of Ghana’s biggest awards events.
With the premiere of this movie coming up in Ghana on the 6th of February, 2015 at the Silverbird Cinemas both at the Accra and Weija Mall as well as the West Hills Mall; we caught up with the pretty lady to first congratulate her and also to find out more about her.
