There’s style and then there’s Jersey Style. New Jersey is the centre of the action on this new reality series that offers a look at life at the Gatsby Salon: a hot Jersey salon re-launching in a new space.
The series captures all the hair-raising drama as five new stylists and makeup artists join the salon’s team and bring with them the best that Jersey style has to offer…in-your-face-glamour, eyeliner for days, spray tans, big hair and big egos.
In Monday's premiere episode: When hair legend, Danny Gianfrancesco suddenly died of a heart attack in 1998, his widow, Gayle, and her daughter, Christy, took over The Gatsby Salon. For the past 10 years, Gayle has run The Gatsby in Danny's long shadow. But the times are changing.
After a $1.5 million renovation, Gayle is ready to take her Gatsby to the next level… on her terms. She is finished being "the woman behind the man".

Ruby’s Swimsuit Issue
Ruby checks in with the private investigator she hired, who is hot on the trail of tracking down a key figure from her childhood.
Meanwhile, Ruby's ex boyfriend Denny calls and invites her to Myrtle Beach for the weekend. Although they are "just friends," Ruby still worries about looking her best for Denny.
At Women's Fat Night, the topic of discussion turns to sex, sexuality, and even Ruby's virginity. Georgia accompanies Ruby to Myrtle Beach, where they have a fun weekend with Denny and his friend Bob. Highlights include: Ruby in a go-kart, Ruby line dancing, and even Ruby riding a mechanical bull.
After a "couples dinner" with Jeff and Dana, Ruby dons a bathing suit and gets into a hot tub with Denny.
Back home, Ruby shares her weekend adventures with her therapist, and makes a poignant connection between her virginity and her weight, which has been something of a security blanket all these years.
