'Hair' Recommissioned For A Second Series
A new series of 'Hair' is to return to BBC Two, it has been announced.
It will be hosted by comedian Katherine Ryan and involves the search for Britain's best amateur hair stylist. The challenges will see 10 hopefuls trying to impress the judges – Royal hairdresser Denise mcAdam and stylist to the stars, Alain Pichon.
Each week, across two episodes, the amateur hair enthusiasts (aged 21 to 58) will face a Freestyle challenge, where creativity and imagination will get noticed when designing a jaw-dropping hairstyle to fit each week's chosen theme, ranging from iconic architecture to the world of ancient history.
What the competitors don't know, is that those with the lowest ranking designs in the Freestyle will find themselves in the Eliminator; a short sharp test of their nerve and hairstyling knowhow, demonstrated by the judges on Katherine's own hair.
The second part sets the home hairdressers professional tasks, taking the competition out into real life scenarios with the added pressures of real deadlines to hit and clients to satisfy, whether styling at a pop-up 1920s vintage club, going behind the scenes at London Fashion Week, or taking on real brides at the Capital's funkiest wedding fair.
The second series of Hair will air on BBC Two on 13 July at 10pm. The 8x30 min episodes will transmit across four weeks and have been made by BBC Documentaries. The Commissioning Editor is Elliot Reed, and the Executive Producer is Aysha Rafaele, while the Series Editor is Ceri Jones.
