"For the First Time I'm Scared to Death"
March 3, 2010

For the shortcut challenge this week, the stylists must dry cut curly hair into a straight graduated bob.(Think Victoria Beckham)This is a haircut that is difficult for me when cut wet on straight hair. This week's guest judge is Moulay Yacoubi world class dry cutting instructor and master stylist. He will assess the stylist's skills to choose a winner for the shortcut challenge. The two stylists that impressed Moulay the least were Brig and April. April's bob had a lot of holes and was not styled straight like the challenge required. Moulay felt that Brig lost her hair cut when she kept cutting and cutting her model's hair shorter and called it a "disaster."

The dynamic duo Matthew & Janine are the top two styists once again. Moulay was impressed with Matthew's dry cutting technique, but really liked the way Janine styled and finished her model naming Janine the winner of this challenge. Janine will have first pick of her model in the elimination challenge.

For the Elimination Challenge, the stylists must transform military wives into pinup girls for a 40's style video to send to their husbands overseas. They must create 40's pin-up style using finger waves or pin curls. They are joined by Hollywood stylist and author Robert Vetica as the guest judge for this challenge. Each stylist will choose a photo of one of the husbands and that photo will pair them with their model. The stylist's models will be judged during the photo shoot.

The top two stylists in the elimination challenge were Brig and Matthew. The judges felt that Brig's look was polished, her color was inspired and completed the look perfectly. Matthew's style captured the essence of the 40's and the judges appreciated the risk he took. Only one of these stylists can be the winner and Brig pulls out her first win in an elimination challenge.

In the bottom 3 were Amy, April and for the first time in the bottom, Janine. The judges said that Amy's look wasn't a style and could not get past the fact that her model's color was grown out and brassy. April had a good concept, but the judges felf she didn't see it through. Janine's style had a lack of direction and was from wrong era. The stylist who impressed the judges the least was Amy and this was her final cut. Amy is sad to leave, but happy that she was a part of the show.
