BravoTV always does the best with reality shows, but this one is a little, well, I am not realy sure how to describe it other than a little bit out there, but then again it is BravoTV and they do tend to stretch the boundaries a little. Anyway, I watched and would like to share my thoughts with you, but don’t expect them everyweek, because I am not sure how much of some of these people I can take.
Jacyln Smith is ou host again this year, and Rene Fries is the mentor to the sylists again this year, he is the Tim Gunn of Shear Genius, and he does a pretty god job at it, this year we have new judges, guess they were a little put off by last year, maybe? The judges this season are Kim Vo (and all I could think about was, a little too much botox dude) and Kellet Atterton of Allure Magazine. This week, the guest judg is Niko.
Short Cut: 45 minutes to do a new haircut, blinfolded! This was funny! I mean, would you trust someone to cut your hair blindfolded? Anyway, the top 2 were Dee and Nicole, with Dee being the winner, and the bottom two were Neksia and Oshun. The ranking was important, because it determined the order in which they picked in the Elimination challenge.
The ranking was: and the picks for the Elmination challenge are also listed, but I will explain those in a moment:
- Dee, 37 – Betty Boop
- Nicole – Jemm
- Meredith, 36 - Jemm
- Glenn, 35 - Judy Jetson
- daniel, 29 - Wilma
- Gail, 24 - Wilma
- Charlie – Marge Simpson
- Matthew , 37- Marge Simpson
- Paulo – Just Jetson
- Parker – Betty Boop
- Neksia, 29 - Lucy
- Oshun, 31 - Lucy
Elimination Challege: interput a new and modern style for your client, given the picture of who they want to look like, they will have 2 1/2 hours and the winner gets immunity next week.
They are all liking this challenge, saying it happens all the time in the salon, to recreate a picture of someone, onyl the twist on this challenge, the pictures are cartoon charachters! Yep, and you have to reinturput the blue beehive of Marge Simpson! Sounds like fun!! Some people had major problems and others did fine.
The top three were: Charlie – Nekisa – Daniel, with the winner, who gets immunity next week being, Daniel.
The bottom three were: Matthew – Oshun – Gail, with the one who is packing their scissors and going home….
OSHUN.
Okay, so my take on this guy, he was young and had had some success that lead to his being way to cocky and over confident. I don;t know how many times we heard him say that he had been nominated for an Emmy for his hair work, and when he walked out, in hearing of the judges he says, “this is Bulls$%t”, which was so unprofessional, and Jacyln Smith handled it like a true professional, just taking right over and through it! Kudos to her. Glad to see the guy go. Oh yeah, and the other thing, you pronounce his name OCEAN, so he kept saying he was deep, that wore on my totally!! I tried to catch how old everyone was during the show, and I missed a few, but what I did get I listed in the rankings behind their names, and it looks like we have a mature class of people who have a great deal of exeperience, so this should be nice, at least I think it will.
See you next week…..
Other thoughts on some of our stylists: Daniel, says his trademark is dallas Hair, welcome back to the 80’s! Glenn says that she is a color genuis, and that will set her apart, probably because some of them realyl screwed up using color in this first week challenge. Dee says she has a strong vision, this coming from a woman with a bleanched yellow spike in the front of her forehead. Meredith said she is the cutest thing you have ever seen, and I am thinking NOT! Honey, your face is showing your age and then some!!
Last night was the opening of Wall-e, and my oldest, my son Tiernan, who is 8 1/2, has been wanting to go see it for weeks now. He has been asking and asking, and we decided that it was rated G, we could do this, so we loaded the car and took all three kids to the movies!
