Jerseylicious- "The test"

Yeah- I haven't blogged this show in a minute but I'm giving it another chance for a special reason- which you'll find out later in the post. Here we go- Tracy returns from NY inspired to be the next big thing in the world of hair. Meanwhile, Alexa has granted Olivia's life-long dream of doing a "glammy wedding" - lol! Her hopes of becoming a Glam Fairy are closer than she thinks.

Alexa talks to Gayle and Olivia about her upcoming blind date. She's nervous and hates Jersey guys. Somehow I'm sure Jersey guys hate her too! She asks Olivia to come out on the blind date with a friend of hers- so it will be a double blind date.

Fililipio, the new salon intern aka "the Italian Tom Cruise" is adjusting well to the being an assistant but he wants more responsibility. Anthony agrees to present the possibility to Gayle. Gayle doesn't think he's ready but is willing to test Filly. If he does a good job shampooing Gayle's big client there may be a chance for him.

Tracy hits the pavement, literally, to get started with working her portfolio and she lands a gig at "The Closet" in Englewood, NJ.

Back at Olivia's house Alexa and Olivia get ready for the blind date. Alexa has her "girls" on full display in a dress that is about two sizes too small and that I'm sure she got from "Rainbow Shop" - ilk! The doorbell rings and Len, Olivia's date comes in and he's not her type at all. He's slimy and calls her princess- yuck! Alexa's date, Ryan arrives soon after. Alexa thinks he's cute and is super excited. At dinner Alexa is practically drooling over him. Len is a tool and seems to be messing up Alexa's groove. She feels bad for Olivia but she's having a great time with Ryan. Sorry Liv.

Tracy prepares to go out and celebrate getting her first freelance gig with her boyfriend Lorenzo, Gigi and Frank. Tracy is growing in her career and life and maybe growing a little tired of Lorenzo's childish ways. At the club Lorenzo seems to be flirting with the waitress and she's getting pissed off.

Meanwhile, part two of Olivia and Alexa's double date is at the same club that Tracy is celebrating with her current boyfriend- Olivia's ex-boyfriend. Olivia looses Len on the dance floor and Lorenzo bumps into Olivia while grinding on Tracy and all hell breaks loose! Tracy leaves the club in a huff and Lorenzo runs after her.

The next morning Olivia and Alexa arrive to do the make-up on the wedding party. Alexa is still gushing about her date the night before. The fairy's are talking so much that they are gonna make the bride miss her own wedding. They kick it into high gear and manage to get everything done in time. Olivia may very well get her wings.

And now for the reason why I'm blogging this show- Tracy is at her big styling job where she's doing the hair for "B. Artise" vintage clothing- yeaaaaaa Bridgette aka B. Artise! Bridgette is a designer with her own line of clothing and a book- check her out at- http://www.bartise.com/ - shameless plug!   B.- changes her mind about the hair styles at the last minute and Tracy is nervous because a lot is riding on the success of this job. In the end, she comes up with the perfect hair to go with the clothes-  "B" is happy and Tracy get some great shots for her portfolio.

Back at the Gatsby, Philly's test shampoo day has arrived and Gayle's big client is no other than Gayle herself. Philly passes the test with flying colors and he's allowed to make baby-steps in getting more responsibility.

Olivia and Alexa have a moment to sit and talk while waiting to do touch-ups on the bride and the bridal party. Alexa opens up about having her heart broken and cries- she's been very unlucky in love and her self-esteem has been greatly affected. She does a snot/cry when talking about it. You know those ugly cries. I think if that Ryan guy doesn't take her out on a second date she may do something rash- yikes.

She gets a phone call from Ryan while at the wedding and he wants to go out on a second date. She is ecstatic! She is also very happy with Olivia's work  so all is well in fairy land and  in New Jersey!


Until next week...
