Nine stylists are left on Shear Genius and it seems as if some of the “real” personalities are starting to come out.  I guess the honeymoon is over, so to speak.
The shortcut challenge this week was an interesting one.  The whole idea was to replicate in a way what happens in a real salon – […]

I don’t know when I’ve seen hair as long as that sported by the models in the shortcut challenge on tonight’s episode of Shear Genius.  The remaining ten stylists were given the challenge to create a style that was complicated and structurally interesting without cutting any hair on their client’s head.  Jaclyn Smith meets the […]

Season 2 of Shear Genius started off with a bang.  Judge Sally Hershberger has been replaced by Kim Vo, a master colorist and celebrity stylist.  Kim and host Jaclyn Smith met the twelve contestants in the salon to give them their first short cut challenge.  The twelve finalists are:
Paulo
Nekisa
Charlie
Nicole
Daniel
Dee
Matthew
Gail
Parker
Glenn
Oshun
Meredith
The hair models come out wearing safety […]

I was actually a bit disappointed by tonight’s finale on Shear Genius.  Maybe it was because I thought last week’s photo shoot challenge was so awesome that anything less than that would be a disappointment.  I just think that the remaining three contestants had done a lot better work at other points in the competition.  […]

I think tonight’s episode of Shear Genius was the best one to date.  In fact, I wonder if this challenge would have been better suited for the finale, but then again I’m sure the producers have something fabulous planned for next week.  They mentioned Vidal Sassoon as playing a key role in the finale.  That […]

What a shocker tonight!  I had Tyson and Tabatha picked as being the two contestants who would be competing for the big prize.  I never thought that they would be eliminated so soon in the competition.  I guess it does really matter who you pick to work with – even though Tabatha was a great […]

I begin this rambling by asking a few questions about Shear Genius.  Is it me or are these contestants 100 times more catty than on Project Runway and Top Chef, or do you think it’s just the way the show is being edited?  And when the contestants are told that this was their final cut […]

I have to start off this post with one of the funniest things I’ve seen on television in a long time.  For whatever reason I was watching the ending credits on Shear Genius when I saw this disclaimer – the challenges are performed by licensed stylists, do not try them at home.  Hello?!  I guess […]

When I started to watch Shear Genius I wasn’t too sure what to think.  The first episode was kind of rough, as if the producers and directors were trying to find their way in the world of Bravo TV reality television.  The third episode has solidified in my mind that Shear Genius is a fabulous […]
