I just discovered this show and love it! The long red wig and the short blonde wig were so believable. I hope that the participants who had the less desirable looks were able to get a better looking cut for their wigs.

I'm worried (I'm not actually sitting here wringing my hands about it) that Jacklyn Smith's voice is going to wind up sounding like Suzanne Pleshette's. It wasn't that deep when she was in Charlie's Angels. Is she a heavy smoker or something?

I don't think she's a smoker (but not sure). Kristian Alfonso (Days of Our Lives) has a much deeper voice now than she did 20 years ago, too. Hard to tell if it's maturity, voice coaches or just a conscious effort to use their lower range.

Catching up on a few eps here.... Gotta go with Costa on the curly hair soapbox!! I'd volunteer to be a model too! In fact, if they can do something with my hair specifically, they can do anything and should be proclaimed the winner right then and there! Back during the long hair challenge, I was not too impressed with Nicole and her sniveling about how her client had hair too thin...right in front of the client too. But she redeemed herself a bit with me in the last challenge, in the way she bonded with her client. Have to say my biggest gripe with any hairdresser is the snobbish attitude one gets with the type of hair you have, like we have a choice in the genetics that give us curly, thin, or whatever hair. I have left many a snobby hairdresser in my wake whom I never went back to. In one case, while I admit I started it by making a few remarks about my hair, the hairdresser joined right in and started trying to beat me to the punch on what kind of rude things he could say about my hair, and he was getting quite a giggle out of it. I didn't go back to him either. Another gripe are the hairdressers who insist we aren't allowed to trim our own bangs, or touch our hair in any way. That we are to go to them and let them and only them touch our hair. One such hairdresser pointedly and loudly talked to her buddy at the next station saying, "yea, THEY don't realize all THEY have to do is come in and we'll trim THEIR bangs for free." And her buddy was loudly agreeing back. THEY of course meaning me, whom they talked about like I wasn't there. I didn't go back to her or her salon either. I liked the last short cut challenge that had the hairdressers teach the clients how to do their hair themselves! Good challenge! And my last gripe (well, maybe not last, lol) are the hairdressers that refuse to listen to you on what works/doesn't work with your hair, like when Matthew tried to curl his client's hair when she said it wouldn't hold a curl. During one visit with a hairdresser, we tried thinning the hair. I knew from that one and only try that it was a bad idea, and explained such to the next hairdresser. I explained how it made my hair wispy and even more frizzy, so in no uncertain terms did I ever want to try that again. As she was combing through my hair and trimming it and stuff, she reached over and got something off her table (I always have to have my glasses off, so can't see what they are doing), and started hacking away at the back of my hair saying, "I'm just going to thin it back here anyway cause...." I never went back to that one either. Unfortunately, I have yet to find anyone I like who I want to go back to regularly. I did have one girl who did a fair job. But she got carpel tunnel in her arms from combing client's hair or something like that, and had to retire. The lady she referred me to made one effort on me, but (while not actually saying so) made it pretty clear she didn't want me in her chair again, as she spent the entire time she was doing my hair making suggestions on shops I should try out next time....like those who specialize on AA hair (all of which are miles and miles away from me, and of course I'd researched before). The last person I ever went to several years ago (haven't really been able to afford the time or especially money since) even advertised on naturallycurly.com how she specialized in curly hair. Wasn't impressed with her work or her personality. And her salon was set up to attract the teens and tweens. So obviously I was a bit out of place.

Who, come to San Diego! I've been seeing my stylist since she got out of beauty college (and that was over 20 years ago). She does curly hair and she does it well. She knows better than to try to thin my hair (it'll frizz), or cut an inch off (cause it'll look like four inches). She understands the difference between using gel (weighs my hair down) and mousse (keeps the curl). And she does long hair! I told her if she ever moved back home to NJ (like that would happen!) she'll have to come out here every 6 weeks to do my hair (in between times I can get color touchups and bang trims with another stylists in her salon). I always say if you can do long curly hair on a white girl, you can do anyone's hair!

Did anyone see that the blonde woman who won favorite last season has her own show. She was a guest show a couple of weeks ago. Can't remember her name, but she is a hoot. Can't wait to see how her show is going to be.

Wasn't happy that Charlie won immunity--again! (thought it should have gone to Dee for her great coloring!)...but kind of funny that Charlie would be in charge for "Charlie's Angels". The team work did seem to bring them down tonight....wonder if it dampened their spirits or what. Wish, wish, wish that Nekisa had gone instead of Glenn.

ITA, Beth. Dee's hair color job was beautiful and Charlie's looked like a rat's nest, IMO. It sure smelled of a set-up since they were doing a Charlie's Angels contest. Stinky if you ask me.

I'm with Mocha on the Tabitha train!! Costa, you and that peacock were just communing that day (that peacock followed us around). I definitely didn't think Charlie should have won that first comp. And agree that most of the angel styles weren't much to write home about, I liked the first Kate that they showed. And oh yeah, when is Nekisa going home?? Grr.

I loved Tabitha.. well then I am biased because she is an Aussie lol.. but she is a good stylist.. can't wait for her show. The Gordon Ramsey of Hairdressing lol.. Costa, you have beautiful hair.. DH hair is curly like that but not as long, and he has had so many bad cuts/trims over the years.. they always take too much off even if it's only an inch and then it springs up to looks shorter (he has a mullet arhhh.. but has had so since he got out of the military years ago).. I did make him get the back cut off once, but that was because he never took care of it properly and it needed a good cut.. When I moved to the US from Australia it took me a while to find a good stylist.. and even though she is only mid 20's.. I have kept her for years now.. she knows my hair and knows that she can go crazy on it and I love that.. Stylists are shocked how thick my hair is and I also have damn cowlicks and she knows how to work with them.. she now owns her own salon and I get treated like royalty.. I was going to be a hairdresser many moons ago, but went into the military instead.. Some of these stylists do think they are soooo great and I really want Charlie to lose soon, he annoys me so bad..

LOL Sea... it did, didn't it? And thanks Deb. I've grown to sorta like my head of curls now, but I tell you, it sure wouldn't be my first choice! (And I can never EVER blend into a crowd! Ever! Which is good -- like going thru TSA screening, cause they always remember me -- and bad -- if I ever really just wanted to hide!) I hated that Charlie won the shortcut challenge. While his coloring was good, this was also about cut and style and his cut/style looked like a rat's nest. I thought Dee should've won. She did a phenom job with the color AND the cut! For the elimination challenge, I think most of 'em fell flat on their faces. I dunno but I didn't see a whole lot of modernization. And some of the Jaclyn and Farrah 'do's were just abysmal. Those big old loopy curls? SO last century! I can't believe Nekisa is still there. And someone should've smacked her upside the head for all her whining at the shortcut challenge. The cameras definitely caught ALL the sinks clogged up, and it looked like no one else had colors bleed. Well, maybe Charlie, but he managed to fake it that he intended that. That said, Nicole was right about Glenn... most of her styles WERE sorta old lady-ish. Glenn just seemed to be the nicer of the two. And the other stylists' reactions when they told her this was her final cut. Everyone expected Nekisa to finally go home!!

Totally didn't understand Kate's comment about the money hair either. I'm not sure that she didn't want to be there, as much as it was about she was out of her element or something. She looked terrific though, didn't she?

I thought the Charlie's Angel's challenge was so fun -being a fan of the show from when I was a kid...and these stylists turned out big duds. I liked Dee's color/cut in the first challenge too.

Loved it when Kim said that Jessica Simpson's and Paris's (was that the second name?) hair are already dated. LOL! Good for him. Also loved the "Typical Texas Mall/cheerleader" look for one of the Farrah cuts. P.S. I love Tabatha also. But I don't think I could work for her for to long. lol! The judges were correct. All the hairstyles were not good at all. I think they chose Glenn over Nikasa for the drama factor for future shows. It should have been a double elimination. I am rooting for Dee to win or Nicole as a second. They really aren't winning me over this season.

I agreed with the judges there should not have been a winner. This last session was the worst outcome of any challenge this season and last. Did anyone fine Kate Jackson bitter???

The "money hair" comment had to do with how popular their hair was. Farrah's hair was her signature thing, but it was duplicated by bazillions of women. Heck, I even had MY lovely curls styled to look like Farrah. The "money hair" is along the lines of "their hair is what made them who they were". I'm sure their hair was insured by Barclay's, too!
