It's makeover week on The Biggest Loser, and all of the remaining contestants are excited to see what's in store for them. Initially, the contestants are excited to get a break from the never ending hours of working out -- and as everyone is participating in the makeovers -- they feel that they finally have a chance to breathe and relax for a day or two!
They have to be up early at the crack of dawn to head to Macy's, where they are excited to spend individualized time with Tim Gunn, as he talks to them about making the correct fashion choices for their new bodies. During breaks in filming, the girls run around the store, eager to buy new clothes for their shrinking selves, as various crew members and both Ron and Filipe try to talk them out of it -- reminding them that they will continue to shrink and shouldn't spend money now! Tara in particular is thrilled that she can finally wear designer jeans, and fights the urge to purchase a pair. The contestants don't often leave the ranch, so the urge to run amok is high -- and everyone is in great spirits.
The fun continues when they arrive at Warren Tricomi Salon in Hollywood to get their hair and makeup done -- even the boys! Everyone oohs and ahhs at the new hairstyles they are receiving from Tabitha and Brandon -- both Bravo favorites, while the others mill about, drinking tea, coffee, and speculating about what the premiere will be like that they are about to attend. Helen has talked a crew member into getting her some nail polish, and as Kristin gets her hair re-colored by Brandon, Helen sits in a corner and paints her nails.
Everyone is having a great time, and the stresses of the ranch seem to have left them for a bit. However, they don't count on Ron who, during the visit, spends most of his day walking up and down Melrose Avenue outside of the salon in an effort to keep his calorie burn going! Laura in particular is worried about this, as her hip has been bothering her quite a bit, and is on crutches when the cameras are not rolling. She takes time out from the makeovers to go see Dr. Huizenga and get an MRI. Both Ron and Laura are distracted for a bit when they see their drastic makeovers -- Ron has lost his beard and needs makeup! -- while Laura has gone a dramatic red.
Once everyone is fully made up with hair and makeup -- they take off for downtown LA, where they will take part in the most lavish makeover reveal yet -- and see exactly what type of premiere it is that they will be attending!
