Episode 109: The "Shear Genius" Reunion! Options

[lildeviltjs2]

Oh and also I was a little confused because they were talking about the wall of fame being the Kiss of Death and the guy that was hosting the show said well Ben if that is true it looks like you will be next! BUT......didn't Daisy win the challenge? I dont know maybe I heard it wrong! Did anyone else hear it?

I believe Ben won the challenge with his vertical hair.

[lildeviltjs2]

I must have been Half asleep! LOL Thanks for clearing it up for me!

[JayCiuM]

Okay was it just me or was Anthony like a totally different person last night on the reunion show! I thought all along he was very sweet and had a big heart and then last night it was just like he did not have anything nice to say! I thought it was really weird. I have to say I am rooting for BEN! I like Daisy alot also so if either of those two win I will be happy! Who would have ever thought that such a hard core looking rocker dude would have such a big heart? GO BEN!!!!!

I guess I need to watch it again!! lol!! The only thing I remember about Anthony was his sqeal when Tyson thought Anthony had the biggest ego!! lol!! Notice everyone thought Tyson was the true villian of the show!! Tabatha won the fan favorite, and I wasn't surprised at all!! She really gave the show some life and she can't be as mean as all that since she on more than one occassion saw Anthony as a good friend!! She's rooting for him as well over Ben (the luckiest man alive) and Daisy (Miss Gabby)!! Good luck guys!!

PUBLIC APOLOGY....Lildevil......you were right, Daisy won the final competition. It was not Ben. And you're right, his comment about the wall of doom didn't make sense.

Sorry......

No that is just fine you dont have to apologize! It was very possible I heard it wrong! LOL But I just watched it again to! LOL It is funny what you pick up sometimes! And what you miss!!!!

[JoeyMichaels]

For the record, they didn't think Tyson was the biggest villain - they thought he had the biggest ego.

Then they went and showed a collection of Jean Paul clips that demonstrated that he was probably the biggest ego of the bunch.

Tyson may be full of himself (and wasn't the most gifted stylist), but he comported himself as a professional through the entire show. Even when Tabetha ripped on him at the reunion special, he focused on how he respected her ability... It was all like:

Tyson: I respect Tabetha as a stylist

Tabetha: Evil leprechaun! He is an evil leprechaun!

Tyson: I think she does great work.

Tabetha: He is short and evil and full of himself.

Tyson: We might not get along, but she is an outstanding stylist.

Tabetha Fans: HOLY CATS STOP HATING ON TABETHA YOU EVIL LEPRECHAUN

The special "Shear Genius" reunion episode airs tonight, right after the regular episode! Talk about it here!

(Do you guys agree with the fan favorite winner?)

WHAT THE? I'M SURPRISED THAT TABBY WON THE MONEY! SHE NEEDS TO SPEND IT ON SOME COUNSELING. I HAVE BEEN IN THE HAIR INDUSTRY FOR 17 YEARS,AND I HAVE WORKED WITH SOME TABBYS BEFORE AND ITS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. I HAVE BEEN A SALON OWNER NOW FOR 9 YEARS,AND I WOULD NEVER HIRE SUCH A RUDE,INSECURE SO CALLED PROFESSIONAL. HER PISSY ATTITUDE ONLY BRINGS TENSION AND STRESS IN A SALON. CLIENTS SENSE THAT, AND I BELIEVE YOU LOSE MORE BUSINESS THAN YOU WOULD GAIN. TYSON HAS SHOWN SO MUCH CLASS, EVEN THOUGH SHE CONTINUES TO INSULT HIM.WHY? I ONLY WISH I COULD BE THAT COOL. I WOULD TOTALLY SLAM THAT HUSSY. AND I WAS SURPRISED THE JUDGE SAID SHE WOULD HIRE HER! HAS SHE BEEN GOOD FOR THE SHOW? OF COURSE, SHES ALL DRAMA. WOULD MOST OF US REAL TALENTED PROFESSIONALS WANT TO SEE HER AT WORK? NOT!!!!!!! GO DAISY AND BEN ! I LUV THE WAY YOU FOCUS ON YOUR WORK, AND YOU MAKE IT ALL ABOUT YOUR CLIENTS! NOW THATS WHAT I WANT TO SEE! YOU MAKE OUR PROFESSION FUN AND EXCITING!

Hear, Hear hilitegal, I totally agree with you.

Why did they have a reunion show before the season finale? I missed it, but they will probably show it again. I hope Daisy or Anthony wins.

[brillke]

I noticed that as well. Do you think it could be because he felt jilted in the end result of the show? Remember, it's been taped already, but they couldn't comment on the results.

Did anyone else think it was strange to have a reunion show when the series wasn't completed?

Nope, not strange at all. Thats how theyve done many reunion shows. The TC1 reunion was done that way.

[brillke]

LOL...I totally agree..She had not one thing to back up her claims..I HATE that!!

Kinda' like Ilan witrh Marcel..All lame excuses for these peeps hateful obsessions and insecurities.

Why do people keep forgetting about editing? We didnt see Anthony in on the Tabatha/Evangalin fight until the reunion show, right? Editing! If the majority of the stylist had problems with Tysons ego then something leads me to believe he was an a-hole.

Blah Blah Blah insecurites yada yada yada mean people. Come on yall, give Bravo credit for their amazing editing.


And yes, I am a huge Tabatha fan too. Was very happy she won the fan favorite.

[Bkiddo]

No that is just fine you dont have to apologize! It was very possible I heard it wrong! LOL But I just watched it again to! LOL It is funny what you pick up sometimes! And what you miss!!!!

Actually, when I first heard him say it, I thought the same thing. What he really meant (regardless of how he worded it) was that if it's true, that the Wall of Fame is doomed, then Ben will be the one to take the cake . . . because he's the only one in the finale to not have won a challenge.

I have to say, though, despite him not winning any challenges, I think Ben is great! He's been fairly consistent. If you look back, he was in the top two or three just as often as he was in the bottom, if not more. They loved his "Sally Shag," his "Rocker," his 40s-inspired do, etc., and he was often in the middle, not the fav. but not the worst. Can't knock a guy for that! I don't think it's nearly as much about luck as some think. He's quite talented.

[brillke]

Ummmmmmmmmm

I don't think I've ever blah blah blah'd someone's post..... or their opinion....I see things very differently than you obviously and we have to respect that fact.
Editing shmediting..She was an unprofessional BEEYATCH at times and ego was all over that place including hers.
I thought Tyson was a decent human being from what I saw.

He might have had a huge ego..but he still acted like an adult......No one else had a problem with him really.Only Miss call peeps names did which is another school yard bully tactic.
YES..... insecure peeps do that!!!!

If you were kidding....ok.
If not.......no wonder you like her!!!

I wasnt blah-blahing you so much as the idea of believing what Bravo has allowed us to see. As I had stated, we did not see Anthony in on the Tabatha/Evagilin fight, did we? No, Bravo hadnt shown us one image of Anthony other then him working and laughing. Well, now you have people who are a bit upset at Anthony for his additude during the reunion show. How do we know he wasnt that way the entire time? Gotta love editing.Others have complained about Tyson and didnt he himself say he had been manipulative? Not sure where I read or heard that so if someone else saw it too, please PM me the source and I will give credit where its due.

Tyson wasnt crying foul and he was there and saw it all. I just think its funny we have to accuse someone of being a bully,being obsessed or insecure if they dont get along. I am not BFF with every single person I meet, are you? There are also some people who get on my last f`ing nerve too. Put me in a place with them for 6-8 weeks and I bet I will be a biatch too.


If your last sentence was meant as an insult, it only proves my point. I disagreed with you therefore I must be a bully and insecure,right?

[swiss74]

I think you might be in error when you say no one else really had a problem with Tyson. I remember when they had the Hair thru the Ages segment, Dr. Boogie, Tabitha, and someone else were laughing and chatting it up because Tabitha had given him a hair do that required being in an upsweep. Up until then Tyson had trouble with putting hair up as I remember. From that segment I think more than just Tabitha had trouble with Tyson. Also remember Dr. Boogie made that comment, "he ------ and smokes those cigarettes," that was said in less than a "I like him manner." Just my observation on the situation, I can not remember any others right now but I am sure if I watched the season episodes again I could find more. The only difference between Dr. Boogie and others was they did not stand in front of the judges and tell how they felt about Tyson only Tabitha did that one. When it comes down to it, Sheer Genius was really almost free of the ripping up the other contestants. I liked it with less drama personally, but that is just my humble opinion.

How could you not like Ben? He's a total sweetheart, he's not as combatative or obnoxious, and he's very down to earth. He's a team player, he's extremely cooperative, he has a great sense of humor, and he doesn't think he's superior to anyone else, like some of the stylists. Despite Ben's innumerable tattoos and plugged earlobes, he's got one of the best personalities on the show. . . .IMHO.

[MzCastle]

OMG, Andy Cohen has Paris Hilton eyes!!! Why on earth didn't Bravo just have Jaclyn host the reunion? She's completely engaging. Andy Cohen's onscreen persona is beyond obnoxious, and the wonky eye just seals it. Somebody please give this cross-eyed sister a vanity check and keep him OFFscreen!!!

Good point. . .I think that because Andy has close-set eyes and a narrow pupil distance, the camera is "pulling" his pupils closer together, creating the illusion of having cross-eyes. Jaclyn would have been a great choice -- she seems to have already established a certain level of comfort with the hair stylists, and Jaclyn is always so professional, too.

I love Tab, I love her attitude and how she doesn't give a flying f*ck what anyone thinks of her, she is who she is. Tyson was a greasy egomaniac who gave me the wiggins. I don't blame her for not liking him, or anyone else for that matter because he seemed to think that he was the best and how dare someone like Tab not bow down to his ego. We must remember, children, that editing is the key. These shows are edited within an inch of their lives and as we all know, Bravo is notorious for editing the sh*t out of something just for ratings sake. Let's play nice and not attack people just because they have differing opinions or because they like Tab, the great bad hair witch.

LOL... I appreciated Tabitha's searing honesty and her acerbic wit. I also enjoyed Tab's cavalier attitude. It took me a few eposides to get used to Tab's look. At first, I thought she was quite odd looking, with her wide-set eyes, turned up nose, elfish ears, and her blindingly platnium blonde pixie-cut hair style. I thought she was pretty hilarious though, especially in her neurotic loathing of Tyson! Tyson's ego was also pretty hysterical!

mzcastle have u seen ben's homemade salon video that prolly got him on the show? not much of a sweetheart or serious stylist. i will be very dissapointed if he wins it all because he should have been gone on the vanessa williams challenge. his style was unwearable, period. evangelin was not cute but wearable. she was cut due the garden shear fiasco. now we see how much of a riff it caused with everyone professionally.

anthony was a bit spicy. me thinks he didn't win.
