Mr. Showbiz Kevin Maynard
Crawford's such a good-hearted guy, you can't help but want a cut from his clippers.
San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle
Aims to do nothing but please, and it accomplishes its modest aim with charm and intelligence.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kenneth Turan
A cheerful and smart mock documentary about hairdressing and Hollywood that knows enough not to take itself too seriously.
Rolling Stone Peter Travers
Irresistibly silly.
Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum
More a sampling of previous crowd-pleasers...than a fashion statement all its own.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Jack Mathews
One of those bright ideas for a TV sketch that convinces someone it's too good to waste on the small screen. It's not.

Pleasing piffle.
The New York Times Stephen Holden
As it rubs our noses in our own fascination with vanity and the silliest values in life, it's charming enough to make us like it.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Chuck Wilson
How nice to see a new comic lead (Ferguson) with the confidence not to hog the screen.
Read Full Review >TNT RoughCut Christopher Brandon
(Ferguson is) so cheeky and effeminate, he becomes more of a caricature than an actual person.
Film.com Robert Horton
Does a lot of little stuff right, and it sparkles at times.
Read Full Review >New York Post Lou Lumenick
Has its share of laughs.
Boston Globe Jay Carr
What saves it is that it's lighter than mousse and is animated by a handful of engaging performers.
Read Full Review >Miami Herald Phoebe Flowers
An inept comedy.
