Hair Stylist Tabitha Coffey's Cutting Tool? Her Pouty Little Mouth
LTHOUGH BRAVO DISAPPOINTED ME WITH THE drivel that is Date My Ex, I am still a submissive to their dom. How can I stay away from the awesomeness that is Tabatha Coffey?
Tabatha was a contestant on the first season of Bravo’s Sheer Genius. Although she didn’t win the title, she did win “fan favorite” and a little Bravo bonus of 10 large.
In Tabatha’s Salon Takeover, Tabby follows in the footsteps of fellow Brits Gordon Ramsey and Peter Ishkans. Ramsey (my personal favorite, yum) makes over restaurants on his BBC and Fox shows Kitchen Nightmares, and showcases his own restaurant on The F Word. Ishkhans remakes coffee shops, pet shops and, I guess, any business that needs his particular brand of rehab.
Tabatha sticks to hair salons.
Tabatha is one of those women who has developed her own style. She’s reminiscent of Anne Robinson of Weakest Link fame. She has a more pixiesh white-blond hairstyle but she has the same affection for dressing in all black (with touches of white). Bravo put her in a neon red top for her promo commercial and it just seemed wrong. Wrong, Bravo! Let Tabatha be Tabatha! I admire people who create their own style of dress. I hope to do it myself one day.
Since the words “warm and cuddly” are not in her vernacular, Tabby terrifies every owner and staff person she meets. And she’s not afraid of using her own “F” word when needed. One stylist calls her an “animal.” That’s a bit harsh.
Like Ramsey, she’s strict and stern but also educates and encourages. She certainly brings the drama but isn't that what we want in our reality stars? I think she’s great and most of the stylists end up thinking that as well. I can't wait for Season 2.
