Glam Fairy -- a spinoff of the network's top-rated Jerseylicious reality series -- will feature New Jersey makeup artist and former Jerseylicious star Alexa Prisco giving women makeovers for special occasions.
Glam Fairy's first season -- which will consist of 10 hour-long episodes and premiere on The Style Network in October -- will follow Prisco as she leaves Jerseylicious's Gatsby Salon and establishes her own The Glam Factory makeover business. In addition to chronicling her attempts to build up her clientele, Glam Fairy will also follow Prisco's personal life and her attempt to give herself a makeover and start a family.
"I'm thrilled that the hit status of Jerseylicious has spawned Glam Fairy and launched Alexa from a pivotal character in the series to the star of her own makeover show. Her tremendous viewer popularity and extensive expertise make her a natural to continue to sprinkle her fairy dust over more deserving women with her own show," The Style Network president Salaam Coleman Smith said.
Glam Fairy is being produced by Endemol USA and executive produced by Alex Duda, Sarah Weidman and Merah Chung.
