Tabatha’s Salon Takeover is back with season 4. A popular reality television series in which Tabatha Coffey helps failing salons turn around in one week has now been renamed as Tabatha Takes Over.

Due to ever increasing popularity of the show, last year Bravo had announced that Tabatha’s Salon Takeover Season 4 would be renamed Tabatha Takes Over and the premise would be expanded beyond just hair salons to include Coffey “taking over” various other small businesses and family enterprises.

If you follow this series, you’ll now see the straight-talking, perfectly coiffed Tabatha Coffey using her sound advice and savvy expertise to help turn around a wide variety of struggling businesses, from bakeries to dog hotels, in Tabatha Takes Over.

She will not only expand her horizons and help more types of failing businesses, but turn their fortunes around with her brutally honest approach.

Tabatha Takes Over premiered on Tuesday, January 10th and it will be telecasted every Tuesday at 10 p.m. EST on Bravo.

For this season premiere, Tabatha visited Jungle Red salon in Minneapolis where she helped salon owner Suzanne Erickson in taking control of her salon which opened its doors for business in February 2001. She took control and made a shocking revelation to Suzanne about how her employees were consuming liquor with her clients and while they were alone.
