Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Hair Show is a lively and funny ensemble comedy set in the busy, high-pressure milieu of an upscale hair salon. As in Barbershop or Empire Records, a handful of idiosyncratic characters share the shop's load but are individually defined by peculiar obsessions or circumstances. Jun Ni (Keiko Agena), for instance, just wants to learn to cook for the husband who adores her yet who is starving because of her failures in the kitchen. Peaches (Mo'Nique) is trying to save her bacon from the IRS agents hounding her for $50,000 in back taxes. At the center of the story is Peaches' rivalrous relationship with sister Angela (Kellita Smith), who took a sizable inheritance from her late grandmother (Peaches got no cash from Grandma's will) and built the salon in which brassy Peaches might be the most talented stylist. Crisply directed by Leslie Small and co-produced by Magic Johnson, Hair Show is lightly but genuinely rewarding. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

When hair stylist Peaches (Mo'Nique) arrives in Beverly Hills to get reacquainted with her sister, Angela (Kellita Smith of "The Bernie Mac Show"), sparks fly! Angela finds out Peaches owes $50,000 in back taxes and is on the run. So the two sisters join forces to fight off a pesky rival salon owner in a show-stopping competition to win a cash prize for Peaches and bragging rights at the city's annual hair show.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a good film to watch with your sisterfriends, July 30, 2005

By	Ayanna Williams "Flowtress" (Cincinnati, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have to say the movie was pretty good....I didn't get the movie with expectations...I just wanted to see what he had to say...it spoke about family, love, and things are not always as they appear. I enjoyed the perfomances and I had an overall good time watching the film. People need to stop over analyzing the movie...it's entertaining...yes it's predictable just like most movies...don't get it twisted...it's not like it's a suspense film or something....

3.0 out of 5 stars Hair Show...., May 24, 2005

By	DiamondDimples (Louisiana) - See all my reviews

I rented this movie last night to get a good laugh. I can honestly say that I got a few. It is about family relationships and how we all need to get over past grievances with them, no matter how many times they screw over us. Mo'Nique wasn't at her funniest but then again, this movie is rated PG-13. As for the things that go on at a salon, people, these things really DO happen. If this movie came out in the 70's, it would have been called a blaxploitation flick. The movie has several meanings...but, did any of us hear about it going to theatres? It had its funny parts..rent it. I wouldn't suggest adding it to your DVD collection though.
