I'm overly excited about the news that
The Rachel Zoe Project has been
picked up for a second season on Bravo. I got hooked on the first season this fall, and have grown to love that pixie stylist and her dysfunctional assistants.
If you haven't watched the show, it follows the crazy life of Rachel Zoe, an L.A.-based stylist to celebs like
Debra Messing and
Molly Sims. She makes the stars look good on the red carpet, on magazine covers, and at fashion shows, and mixes with all sorts of interesting people, like designers
Marc Jacobs and
Michael Kors.
But all the fun really happens inside Rachel's studio, where she tries to keep everybody happy, including hubby Rodger, and squabbling assistants
Taylor Jacobson and

Well, she's making over America one salon at a time. The former
Shear Genius contestant will be saving America's hair stylists in
Tabatha's Salon Takeover. She'll visit salons on both coasts that are in dire need of her direction. Coffey has just a week to work her magic.
This is the "hair version" of
Kitchen Nightmares. The press release goes on to say that her comments are mean and jarring. The salon owners and employees probably won't like her at first. But they'll realize that it's her passion and intensity that "drives her sincere quest to turn these salons around." After one week with Coffey, who started as a salon assistant when she was 14-years-old, we'll see dramatic results. Coffey will also recommend people to be fired and tell some of the better stylists that they should raise their rates.
Kitchen Nightmares, right? I'm not saying I wouldn't give this a try though. I like
Kitchen Nightmares.
Tabatha's Salon Takeover premieres Thursday August 21st at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo.
