NORA'S HAIR SALON 2

NORA'S HAIR SALON 2
 
Starring: Tatyana Ali, Stacey Dash and Bobby Brown
Nora's Hair Salon 2

 

By Tonisha Johnson

 

Single mom Lilliana (Tatyana Ali) has her hands full with running the shop as well as running her life. She's in between making ends meet while not ending up stressed from her sons antics, shop workers and co-owner Simone (Stacey Dash) who's more bossy then busy.

After several attempts to gain notoriety from Oprah Winfrey, co-owner Simone gives up her dreams of an infomercial and selling lots of hair care products and decides to sell her half of the salon.

To Lilliana's and the rest of the staff's surprise there isn't much that they can all do to change the heart of Simone.

After several shouting match's and a fist fight, the two find themselves uniting after life takes a wrong turn and the shop is directly effected.

Nora's Hair Salon 2 is a short but sweet attempt at bringing to worlds together. Not much is focused on the cutting edge of hair care, NHS2 sheds light on family remaining family.

Tatyana's all grown up. Surpassing single-hood and straight into the mother role, she does a great job at approaching the character with a stern sense of parenthood. While Stacey Dash continues to play the Diva on screen, bringing style and a certain sexy that only Stacey can do.

The film could have done without Bobby Brown. Playing the hip hop artist flaunting women all over the place? Why feel he'd fill those shoes? Even within an older Stacey Dash playing opposite, she is still a baby face compared to a thicker more aged Mr. Tenderoni. Thank goodness that subject matter had only moments in the entire film.

Funny and upbeat. Never falling out of the film, Nora's Hair Salon 2 is definitely a must watch.
