2.0 out of 5 stars It WAS a good show, February 6, 2011
This review is from: Shear Genius Season 3 (Amazon Instant Video)
I liked the previous seasons of the show, but now they changed the judges and the host. I really don't like one of the judges, because he's just another Simmon. Then the challenges were a little out there and not the most realistic situations. I felt like the show was very different, and if you liked the first two seasons I feel like you'll be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars cutting edge, March 30, 2011
This review is from: Shear Genius Season 3 (Amazon Instant Video)
I had watched the first two seasons when they happened. Loved em! This one I got to see the season opener..and then didn't get a chance with the rest. No one can replace Jackleyn.she did the first two seasons..and she is amazing, graceful, and brillant as a host. This host though beautiful..was harder to understand. The judges were ok. I agree with above review..the one judge was very hard to please and some of the challenges...I wish they would of had more realistic ones that we as customers...order or get done.

I liked the season 3, but compared to the two previous...doesnt have the shine and polish that the first two seasons had. I ordered teh whole season..and enjoyed though. If you love hair, are into tabiath's salon and season's one and two of sheer genius..you will still enjoy. I did =D
