Tonight on Shear Genius, the three finalist – Dee, Charlie, and Nicole – had to tell a story though a woman’s hair. They would each have four clients at different ages – 18, 30, 45, and 60. The stylists had to tell a story as the woman aged. Charlie’s woman was a [...]

The four stylists left on Shear Genius might or might not be the best of the best (I’m still wondering how Glenn got eliminated before Nekisa) but they do make for good television.  And I’m a bit surprised at the make up of the final three.
The shortcut challenge tonight was “all about personalities” according to [...]

With only five stylists left on Shear Genius, the competition is starting to heat up.  Personalities are really coming out and you can just tell that everyone who is left wants to win it.  And of the five stylists left in the competition at this point I think the final three are going to be…well, [...]

I am a fan of Shear Genius and I’ve read some things about this season that say the stylists aren’t as talented as last year; the challenges aren’t as exciting; and that overall tat season 2 isn’t as good as season 1.  Up until last night I was saying “no, you’re wrong” that it was [...]

I was a bit surprised with this week’s elimination on Shear Genius.  The fact that Glenn was kicked off the show makes me wonder how much input the judges have into the final decision, and how much influence the producers and Bravo people have on the outcome.
The shortcut challenge this week was an interesting one.  [...]

So far on this season of Shear Genius I haven’t been wowed by anyone.  That changed this week as I was really wowed by one of the styles in the elimination challenge.
Nicole wakes up early to find a bowl of flip flop sandals on the counter and all the pairs have a number on them.  [...]

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.  [...]
