Holy Hairballs, Batman!
There was SO MUCH hair on this week’s Shear Genius! Think I’m kidding? Check it out – one of the models had hair that was 62 inches long! It was longer then the stylist was tall! All of the ladies in the shortcut challenge had really long hair, which shocked the contestants. Though shocking was the twist – they couldn’t cut a single strand of hair in their efforts to give them a new look that was interesting and structurely complicated! They all did their best, but none of them really wowed me. The judges had some favorites, of course, and Nicole’s was outright and universally considered frightening. She blamed it on her model not having any hair – hah. She had a lot, it was just very fine – there was something that COULD have been done. Nakisa, however, is the one on the bottom – she admits to having panicking, and not handling the pressure well.
The two favorites were Matthew and Charlie – though Meredith is catty and says it looks like the prom date without a date. haha. Mathew is the winner of the Short Cut challenge, which means he gets first choice of models in the elimination challenge and decide the order the others pick in – they don’t get to see the clients though as they choose – just the dress. Matthew talks about his wife 1120937512 times, and I want to slap him – is he trying to hard to prove his heteroness? Seriously.
The elimination challenge is Red Carpet Glam. They have two hours, and some really rock it out with fantastic and well photographed ‘dos, while there are quite a few don’ts too. Glenn, Charlie and Gail come out on top, and it’s Charlie who gets his picture on the wall once more. Color the other contestants pissed off behind frozen happy smiles. Hah. Nicole, Matthew and Paulo are the bottom three, which is quite a fall for Matthew from winning the shortcut challenge. He committed the cardinal sin, though, and didn’t listen to his client when she told him her hair wouldn’t hold curl – lo and behold, it didn’t and he’s the one who’s sent home to his wonderful perfect 10 of a wife. He says “good.” and is gone. Alrighty then… Meridith is catty some more, and I kinda love her for it.
