Discuss the episode.

Hi, BBB!


A lot of the styles I'm seeing so far just seem unfinished to me. May be the newest thing, but I prefer more polished looks. What's with all the stray hairs and so on?

As usual, Jackie went to the "I was looking for more movement!" "Sheesshhh; get a new line old woman!" lol!! Everyone can't have Angel's bouncing hair! Nicole should be shot for hacking off all of Dee's mom's hair!

I can't believe Charlie is still there! He's like a STD that wont go away. I don't think his cut was better, it looked weird over on the sides over her ears, just like Kim Vo mentioned.

I know! What a mess, it'll take forever to grow out. That cut just isn't for an older woman.

I get the imptression Jacqueline doesn't know what else to say...

I KNEW IT! I knew Nicole being in the bottom all season would wind up being in the last 4! What a joke! Why do I watch this mess? lol!! The Charlie phenomenon is lost on me! WHY DO THEY LIKE THESE DRAG QUEEN HAIRDOOS SO MUCH? lol! He should be backstage for Project Runway with the Drag Queen challenge next week! lol!!

Oh lord, I forgot all about Final Four. I don't mind Nicole so much. But I really can't stand Charlie. The judges seem to like him, I predict he will (gag) win.

THANK YOU!!! Finally someone besides me realizes what a crappy "judge" Jaclyn is. She just repeats whatever Kim Vo says...she doesn't have a single solid idea of her own. And Kelly Atterton is useless too!

At least these challenges were better than most. Dee...how could you leave that kids bang's that way?! I think Nicole rocked the short cut challenge and should have won that. Sorry but Daniel's client looked like kiddie porn!! But I agree cutting Dee's mom's hair that short was a gunshot to the head and Nicole should have been eliminated. I've had a cut that short when I didn't ask for it and I cried every day until it grew out. That is one of the reasons I decided to go into this business, so I wouldn't do that to someone else! So Nicole broke the cardinal rule of not asking what her client didn't want done to her hair. I didn't think Paolo's cut was that bad....I would have liked to see how it looked curly, I bet the cut would actually be good. I don't think he should have gone home.

I personally didn't think anyone in the elimination challenge did a terrific job. Either I liked the cut or the color...but not both.

Let's see what they come up with for next week!

I don't get it....I've seen better stylists at Super Cuts....where do they get these people?? The most tragic and irritating personality is Charlie obviously.....whine, whine, whine AND he's more concerned about what everyone else is doing and ragging on the others rather than focusing on his work....but of course he's better than everyone else...NOT! The point is I would love to drop him off on an Army base and let them turn him into a man.....even a decent gay man for that matter, lol...there are so many more horrible things going on in this world namely soldiers getting killed every day, people starving, cancer, etc and this a-hole bitches constantly about the most insignificant things....very sad and he makes me want to puke.

I'M SICK OF CHARLIE! ! WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS HE IS. I HOPE HE GOES VERY SOON!! HIS PERSONALITY IS BEYOND BORING.

I have to say, though, I didn't like Paolo's cut because it went a bit too far. And Nicole's cut...well, it will grow out nicely, but if the client doesn't like that cut of Paolo's it will take a serious trip to the salon to grow it out and recut it. Just my opinion, but a plain short cut grows out much better than patchie layers...and I'm in the middle of growing my hair out, so maybe that's why I see it that way. Anywhooo....it's late, I'm off to sleep!
Night all!

Okay - I finally got around to saying this - I have not been wowed this season. I just end up feeling confused.. I just don't get it. They have all succeeded at creating one style, it seems.. but, I'm just not feeling it.

When it was between Dee and Charlie as the top 2, I think Dee should have won. The cut looked great even if the color was a little dramatic.

Charlie's looked funny around the ears and with the client's big teeth, it made her face look wider. I was over Charlie when he won the Marge Simpson challenge. That was ridiculous.

As much as I like Nicole (she should have won the short cut challenge), she messed up. Dee's mom looked like a carbon copy of Dee without the blonde doodad in the middle. I really thought she was going home.

I hope Charlie beefs it next week. I really don't like him. Thank goodness there is no more immunity.

JMO!

I disagree. Dee's mom's hair was already too short to do much with. I thought the shorter cut looked good. There's an older gal in my office who wears her hair that short and it looks good.

I agree with the judges that the haircut Nicole gave Dee's mom should be one given only if requested! At least it looks like Nicole can technically pull it off, so it wasn't a bad cut, just not for Dee's mom. I did like Dee's cut and style the best for Paolo's cousin(??). I am probably going to be ridiculed, but I would so do that to my hair! lol

The kiddie challenge was soo cute, and those girls knew what they wanted!

This episode was definitely better than the previous ones...something to be happy about.

that cut on Dee's mom should have got nicole kicked to the curb. it was one of the worst I have seen and didnt flatter her one bit. paulos would have been fine if he didnt blow it dry the way he did. it made her look like a porcupine.
I think jackie looks amazing...love her...shes not a hair stylist so i think she does the best she can. if I look anything like her at her age...I'll be a happy girl...
that other female judge needs her own hair fixed. it looks terrible on her.
got to say i have seen better cuts and colors in small town salons...not an impressive crowd at all...

So great to see the soon to be first graders! Paulo is really a sweet schmoozer, even with the kids. Nicole is such a beautiful person, inside and out, but she needs to step it up with color to win. I will be sad to see her go. Charlie should already be gone for one or another of his big blunders. Dee or Daniel should win the $100k IMO. They are all around best skilled.

I did like the short cut for Dee's mom; it took years off her. And her earrings will show well.

I tend to agree with your first statement. None of the contestants seem to be as innovative or creative as last season's.
From there I also kind of agree (sob) about Charlie--he's not living up to my expectations any longer.
Finally, however I have to ask why you would want to be so hateful towards someone you don't know in the statements beginning with, "...drop him off at an Army base . . ."
I agree, there are many horrible things happening in the world, and my heart hurts much of the time when I read the news, that's why I enjoy a little diversion like SG. But the focus of these contestants (Charlie, the "a-hole" included (and in your list of horrible things you mention specifically soldiers getting killed--is that how 'they' would 'make Charlie a man?')) IS the contest at this point, why would that make you want to puke? If the diversion is that demeaning to you, then don't bother with it.
Cheers,

PAULO for Fan Favorite! Who's with me on this?

Totally agree. Soldiers need diversion too, y'know!

I don't like his choppy hair cuts, but after seeing him with the child last night, I admit, I melted a bit..

Well, maybe a lot. OK, I'm just a puddle of goo!
Paulo has my vote for fan favourite!

Wow angry much?
First off these people are hairstylist on a reality show so don't forget that there is pleanty of editing involved. I'm sure we are only seeing a small percentage of what is said in the interviews and if Bravo chooses to paint someone at the "[expletive deleted]" then that is what they choose to do.
Second how on earth does Charlie ragging on the other contestants have anything to do with the war, starving childern etc. I don't think the interviews are asking him so how do you feel about the war in Iraq Charlie? I'm sure it's more like what did you think of Paulo's cut on your sisters hair. And if you are so concered about the world what on earth are you doing watching shear genius? Shouldn't you be out feeding the homelss or reading to children with cancer?

I'm totally with you, and I pretty much decided that long ago. He is - or was - the most fun in interviews. I'll miss him in the last few episodes.

On another note - personal issues over Charlie's presence aside - I can't believe no one has mentioned that this was the best episode of the season. It certainly was in my opinion. We finally got scenes from the house that didn't involve people at each other's throats and were, in my opinion, pretty funny. Poor Gail, but Dallas-Daniel was pretty much spot on with that dig.

Okay, so I admit, that Elimination Challenge was pretty lame. Charlie made that poor woman look like her ears had exploded, while Dee's color was a little "I can get away with this because I work in a bar." I didn't want to see Paulo or Nicole get sent away, but that's like Paulo's only style, so I get why he was the obvious choice.

I have no idea who's going to win this year, but Daniel and Nicole are my favorites - of who's left.

ummmm nicole has only been in the bottom twice

Ummm... maybe I'm wrong, but I thought Charlie did an interpretation of Wilma Flintstone, didn't he? And you have to give him credit for that because it was fabulous! Matthew was the one who scr%w%d the pooch on THAT challenge!

Sad to see Paulo go, but I'm not surprised. It was a choppy cut.

Still can't stand Charlie. Can't believe that he won AGAIN. Dee should've won this one. Charlie needs to STFU. He even brags about his three wins. STFU. If he wins...

Jaclyn does say the hair needs more movement too many times. It's getting old.

Loved the Shear Genius Fashion Show. The impressions were spot-on.

Yes! Definitely!

DITTO!!!!!

I think that Nicole should have been the one to go home. Her style was the worst in my opinion. It was way too short and there was really no way to even style it. Paulo's wasn't his best work but at least he's won some challenges! And I really hope that Charlie goes home soon!!! I can't stand him! But sadly he will probably win!

No, Charlie did the literal interpretation of Marge Simpson and won. I can't remember which character Matthew did but the person who did one of the Wilma's did a much better job.

From the Episode 1 board:

I actually thought Parker's Betty Boop should have been a tie for first place with Daniel's Wilma Flintstone for the elimination challenge...

And Charlie's Marge Simpson was the worst (which the judges picked for top 3!) -
It was total Halloween costume! Definately not updated for everyday!
Anyone with Marge should have done an Amy Winehouse Bee-hive with a blue streak in it....

Oh yeah! I got so wrapped up in that Charlie thing I forgot to mention the fun at the house. It really was probably one of the best things to happen over all on this season so far. And Paolo (tho' not THIS fan's favorite) was hysterical as Matt! You know who they forgot, tho' was Parker--although he could probably have been invisible 2 with Gail.
Yeah, it was probably a scripted moment (or at least promoted by the producers) but it seemed like one of the best real moments on this season or the previous one.

Daniel did the winning Wilma.

I don't know why all the hate for Nichole...if ya'll have ever cut latina hair you would TOTALLY know that there is not a lot you can do with it other then go that short. The challenge was a makeover, and that was a great cut for her face. Charlie is a GREAT hair dresser, you should see him when he is cutting on stage. Leaving that hair around the ears is the what you have to do when you are doing something that short with ears that big. You have to give Charlie high five for that color because that color line is so Bla, to make those colors to look shiney takes talent. (I woulsn't put that color in my hair). I have to say I dislike Dee's personality but she is SO talented. I would have stayed away from the red tho. Paulo's hair cut straight was great, and disconnection is totally his thing but when that hair is left curly its going to be a MESS. I love Paulo, but that cut is not for everybody's textured hair.

Did I miss the impression of Glenn? I just don't remember that one being done along with a "Parker!" I guess I need to watch it again!

Nicole brings a lot of this animus on herself! You try and tell her something and it's like...."whatever!" (with an eye roll) No one likes to be sneered at, ignored, or dismissed like that! It's youth I guess! The biggest fault I have with her is the constant insults to the client; "like her/his hair is so thin, or over-processed, etc, etc, etc!" Again, who wants to hear that more than once? Charlie could be the greatest hair designer of all time and he'd still be in the bottom as far as I'm concerned! His own insecurities drag him down by "downing" everyone else's efforts! It's never good enough for him and I have no idea why he is asked for an opinion, he will always have something bad to say about another stylist! He's just plain rude! I suppose he's just playing the game! If he had been a boring "schlump," he probably would have been gone already!

It's hard to believe these are suppoused to be brilliant hairdressers that have made it so far because of their superior talents. Not one of them have the whole package. Just when you think one is it, they fall short on their lack of versatility. No wonder people will actually pay hundreds of dollars for a good haircut and color. They are hard to come by. This week's challenge for all of them should have been in the bag. None of the relatives had horrible hair, come on, they have sons, daughters, sisters and cousins hairdressers. None were impresive. Some of them were even amateurish.

I can't believe Charlie is still there either. And after the comment from last week by Jackie, you get the impression that he is destined to win the whole shooting match. The host's didn't have to make it so obvious when he said that he didn't want to cut the dog's hair and never wanted to do it again. These challenges are meant to weed out the weak links, but he must be destined to win it all.

I'm so sad that my dear, sweet Paulo is gone. I just LOVE him!!!! (Fan fave definitely.) I think that Nicole should have gone home instead. That super short haircut was whack! That woman is stuck with that whether she likes it or not. At least Paulos model could get hers redone if she didn't like it.
I don't hate Charlie, but he's definitely not in my top 3. (Paulo, Daniel, & Dee are my faves) I want Daniel to win because I adore him, but think that Dee is better overall so she should win.

I'd love to see Jaca cut hair. She sure says often enough that she would have done it this way. Get a grip. Her hair needs to be cut and restyled. She's too old for the look. She's not an angel anymore she's a fair god mother.

Since when are ear flaps in style? Why oh why do they keep giving the competitions to charlie? I guess becuase without him, we'd just have some hairstylist competing for the prize.

Nicole took a chance, she did a cute cut. . only problem, she had little to work with and didn't listen to the client. hmmm. .. I dont think that the models should be given such a voice. Quit with the special models and get some that want some fabulous hair. Let the stylist show their style.

Bravo? no. . I believe the phrase is;
Nessuno più per favore! Sono malata !
(No more please!! I'm ill!)

I absolutely LOVE Daniel's multi-colored glasses and would LOVE to know what brand they are.....

I was really sad to see Paulo go. He is definately 'fan fav". Nicole's cut was drastic but Dee's mom looked great and younger than she had when she came in. Charlie has entertaining quips but imo is not that talented. I vote Dee, Daniel and Nicole for top three.

If something is true it is not an insult. When a stylist is speaking

professionally to other stylists they give this information for the

purpose of explaining why they did what they did. Over processed

hair can throw your plans into the ash can. If the hair is hard to

take color for anyreason, you have to use products that are

harsher, or if you don't make sure you tell the client they may be

brassy before you even begin. All of the judges know something

about hair. Nicole or any of the stylist contenders are going to give

this information. Most people who have done their own perm or

color KNOWS the stylist is going to question them about what they

did to their hair. It goes with any sort of hair correction. It is just

the way the world is. I like Nicole. She is extremely talented. I

am hoping she wins.

Wah, I'm so horribly sad to see Paolo go. He was just my favorite person on the show. I loved watching him interact with his little girl. Can you even believe that he was my first gay crush? Who would've thought...

Ick, ick and double ick. Charlie's haircut looked like it was shredded by a lawnmower in the back & Ooops! What a disconnection between the front & the sides. I guess he didn't observe her ears before he started cutting. Very hard & unflattering!

Charlie's sister is HOT.

Too bad Paolo butchered that lovely hair.
