Lex, no matter how AF&F you are, I've gotta disagree. I'm still not on the Padma fan train.

Rene's catch phrase. I swear I spent the entire first season thinking he was saying "go shag it" and couldn't figure out why he wanted 'em to go knock boots! Seriously. Also his "hi hi" seems phony.

I knew Oshun was going as soon as he finished his "in the dark" challenge. It's still mostly true of reality shows... those with the biggest egos usually don't have the chops to back it up. Whether it's cooking or designing or hair styling.

Oh I like her well enough. I just don't like her much as a hostess! So, I think I'll let THIS train leave the station without me! :-)

That guy reminded me of someone too and yes he was on a design show but it was on bravo's Top Design not the HGTV one!

Re comparing these contestants to look-alikes on other shows, Zap2it says the following:
"# Daniel -- blonde with glasses, specializes in "Dallas Hair" (which makes me love him). Ringer for Kayne from Project Runway Season 3.
# Parker -- looks just like Christian from Runway Season 4 -- if he had any muscle tone."

And yes Rene Fris, he's the forgettable mentor to the hair stylists. Just doesn't have it as a teacher/mentor.

You're right Panda. It was Top Design not Design Star. His name was Michael.

Guess I've watched one too many design shows in the past couple of years. LOL

I meant to thank you in my other post, it was driving me crazy trying to think who he reminded me of!

So they'll be styling the Real Wives of the OC next week. That should be a real hoot!

No one yet.

I loved the super short redhead's cut. The OC Housewives, meh. But not the stylists fault, the housewives wouldn't let them do much.

Wow - some of those "wives" deserve other names! Talk about difficult clients. Tabitha from last season hasn't changed a bit. She still treats others like she knows it ALL and they'll never even be able to buy a clue. Bleh - didn't like her then, still don't like her.

However, as far as the final judging went - I mainly agreed. I like Chris's personality, so was happy to see him win again (although I personally like Dee's cut/color the best). The loser (Parker) didn't seem to have a clue as to what a good haircut SHOULD look like, nor what color works for women!

WHAT was up with Daniel crying?? It's only been two weeks. I enjoy his personality throughout the show, but the crying at the end rather grated on my nerves.

HAD to laugh - blonderexic?? What a term!

That's right, it was Michael from Top Design! Funny, I couldn't stand him and even though Daniel is way over the top, he's sort endearing in a humorous way. LOL

The Housewives.. ugggh. I actually thought some of the others looked worse than Parker's, even if it should have changed mores. I thought some of the others looked like they had nothing done to them and looked really messy in a bad way. I liked Dee's cut and color better, too.

Tabitha can lose her 15 min. of fame. I thought she acted so obnoxious. Was she the fan favorite last year just because she was umm.. not so nice? :-)

Jeana was quoted in our paper as saying that some of the cuts were bad. Hers .. I thought was such an improvement from that very long stringy stuff she had in the back when she arrived and the cut wasn't top three but it was safe. Jeana said she "had" to get extensions after that. <eyeroll>

I hadn't watched RHWOOC for a couple of seasons and didn't recognize most of them.. What a shame that many of them cling to bad styles.. but they really could afford to go to a great stylist and let them loose.

the daughters of the Housewives looked so nice.

The Housewives themselves could definitely use a little something to change it up- a fresher look.

So sorry to see Parker go, although without the colorist component, he was probably destined to go soon. BUT, he was the one last week who REALLY showed his cutting skills in the Betty Boop cut that I thought should have been in top two--and possibly have won last week.

Jeana's cut I thought was one of the best, and looked so much better than her original. Didn't think the Housewives presented a very exciting challenge, because of their refusal to change or even be cut at all!

PS Thanks so much for the photo gallery above!

Dumb challenge. But it was supposed to be about coloring and not haircuts, correct?

The woman who's hair cutter lost, her hair cut made me think she looked like Cher from the early 70's.

I loved seeing Tabitha again and she was spot on with her critiques.

Grooch, I thought it was about BOTH coloring and cuts. I remember just one of the housewife group (probably a daughter) saying she didn't mind having hair cut off, and the others said what an advantage that was. And let's see, final three top ones were at least 2 daughters--or were all the top 3 from the daughters group?

I thought Vicky was ridiculous about demanding that her daughter's hair not be cut at all. If it was about both coloring and cut, then these women shouldn't have even particpated.

Maybe they needed the money for a down payment for their next car.

The housewives were just a total waste of time. I much prefer seeing a real change in hairstyles. Vicky <77>. So tired of her.

I've never watched The Housewives and know nothing about the show (somehow I missed that train) anyway for some reason I thought all the Housewives were beautiful and glamorous but from what I saw on Shear Genius, most the of the moms are candidates for What Not To Wear..they all needed hair makeovers, for sure.
