NEW YORK – The competition gets hairy on Bravo's "Shear Genius," when two world-famous hair masters, known for styling the locks of rock and celebrity royalty, critique the remaining stylists, Wednesday, May 9 at 10PM ET/PT. Ken Paves and Christophe, the magical fingers behind some of Hollywood's hottest stars like Jessica Simpson and Eva Longoria, guest judge on Bravo's "Shear Genius."

"'Shear Genius' helps all of us remember why we wanted to be hairdressers. I believe hairstyling is like any other art, subject to intention and interpretation," said Paves. "I was impressed by the sense of individuality and dedication that each stylist displayed."

Jaclyn Smith and Sally Hershberger preside on the short-cut challenge where the stylists must create a sexy hairstyle for the everyday man in need of a makeover. Things get even hotter in the elimination challenge when the stylists' skills are put to the test, tasked with recreating hairstyles from distinctive eras such as Medieval, Victorian, 20's, 40's, 60's and 80's.
