Did you guys watch last night’s episode of Shear Genius? Even though I saw it coming from 100 million miles away, I still screamed NO! at the TV when Jon was voted off. Although the other option was Janine, which would have sucked too. Bottom line is that they both got majorly screwed, and I’m sure they knew it. Brig should have gone home last night, but reality TV fuckery won. In a few hours I’m interviewing Jon. (Psyched!) Next week’s Shear Genius finale isn’t going to be the same without his hilarious one liners. Maybe if he’d done it while dressed line Minnie Mouse in roller skates? Honestly, yes, Brig is a good reality TV show contestant, but Jon did a better job at hair throughout the show. It’s a bummer that he got the boot. But, I guess take note future Shear Genius contestants, talent only gets you so far. Or at least, character can take you further.
Watching the judges faux drool all over Brig’s hair last night made me sad. I mean, they were laughing when it came out on studio. But Shear Genius got a nice little redemption story for Brig: The “mean girl” Janine cries and Brig triumphs over adversity. I get the feeling Brig has watched a lot of reality TV and figured out exactly what to say when. Although, she’s not going to win the whole thing, Matthew is. Le sigh.
Janine did my favorite hair of the night again with both Camila’s hair:
And her model’s hair in the Elimination Challenge. I loved the purple edges:
Honestly, though, I wasn’t that blown away by any of the hair during the Elimination Challenge. Maybe everyone caught a case of the nerves? Matthew’s styles were ho-hum. Janine’s curly style was not great. I thought Jon did a decent job–his choice of the model with the thin hair was brave, and he improved her look.
I liked Jon’s redhead’s color, although I would have liked to see a lighter, more vibrant red.
Check back later for my interview with Jon. And let me know what you guys thought of last night’s episode!

Jon got screwed bigtime! I absolutely love his humor — he was the one who always had me in a laughing fit on my couch. I definitely feel sad he is gone.
I agree totally, BeautyGala! I am curious to see what he’s like on the phone. 🙂
Great episode. Matthew got his bubble popped. His styles looked great. Maybe if the blondes part were different? Kim Vo always tries some funny insult. ? The real estate comment agent was funny.
Janine cried. That is always great for TV. Brig got to do her thing. Maybe if Jon would have thrown in 8 velcrow rollers on the red, who know what may have happened to him. Oribe would have loved some sexy volume on her. He handled it like a Pro. Much respect to Jon.
Hated to see him go.
