Jess is joined by Tabatha Coffey, the Australian hairstylist, salon owner and badass star of Shear Genius and Tabatha Takes Over. Tabatha reminisces about her audition for the Shear Genius hairstyling competition show, which she lost, but scored her own spin-off. We chat about the early days of Bravo which made stars out of entrepreneurs (Rachel Zoe, Jeff Lewis, Jackie Warner) and how the network has changed over the years. She chats about the infancy of social media via Reddit threads and chat rooms and her reputation of being a “b*tch.” Tabatha also goes dee about her upbringing in Australia where she was thrown into the gay and trans scene from a very early age through nightclubs owned by her parents.
