Can't believe nobody has posted on this one yet.  New show on Bravo

http://www.bravotv.com/Shear_Genius

Reality show where stylists compete.  Last two episodes have been great.  New shows are on Wednesdays at 10/9c; repeats all the time.
 
The show was the "Short Hair Challenge" where they had to mimic the "Sally Shag" (the haircut that Sally Hershberger did on Meg Ryan years ago) on a manequin and then they did the "Long to Short Challenge" on live hair models but they had to use special tools, no typical haircutting scissors; some of the emplements they had to chose from where wire cutters, box cutters, kids 2nd grade scissors, pinking shears, and one stylist had to use hedge trimmers.
 
It's really a good show.  Jacqueline Smith is the host and she's still looking awesome.

It is a pretty good show.  The different cutting utensils was a bit over the top but entertaining.  I guess they have to come up with different "gimmicks" to keep it interesting (for the non-hair enthusiasts)
