Shear Genius Season Three stylist, April Barton talks about her experience on the Bravo Show. A highlight: April was originally contacted by the producers while casting for season one - not as a contestant though... as a judge!

This week, the judges were not happy with April's performance in either challenge, although personally, I loved the heart-shaped inspiration of the Short Cut 'do, and the way April went about cutting the hair was very entertaining. And honestly - it wasn't April's fault that her EC model was 21 but looked older. It wasn't the hair.
Ah April, we would have loved to see what you could do in a challenge more suited to your range of skills and preferred styles, because we know you would have knocked it out of the park. Much success to you in the future.
This post is for positive comments about April. If you have anything bad to say about her or another stylist, please do so here.
April began her career in the late eighties at the height of the punk scene in London where she assisted in opening the first School of Hairdressing. In the early nineties, April moved to New York and worked in various salons until she opened her current salon, Suite 303, in 1995. Nestled on the third floor of the Chelsea Hotel, April has committed her salon to artistic expression and has earned the nickname “Edward Scissorhands.” Her clientele consists of many A-List celebrities that include Jerry Seinfeld, Jake Gyllenhaal, Luke Wilson and Mary J. Blige, to name a few. April’s work has graced the pages of Rolling Stone, Vogue, Elle, among other top magazines.
