| I think she looks good. Maybe just trim a little off under her face where I put the lines. What look were you going for? Did you want her to look like Chanel and Cheri? Maybe Villette can help. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | WOW IS SHE SHINY !!! What are you using on her that she looks THAT shiny ? I see what you mean though...IF it were me...I would trim the long part so it matches the shorter part and it will grow evenly - When Cheri was spayed...they shaved her ALL across her tummy and took off a ton of longish hair and I had to even her up because it really looked mis-matched....but your girl is beautiful ....and I think you did a good job....maybe just go a tiny bit shorter if you can just so it grows out evenly.....You were brave to do this and hey - I think she looks GREAT I bet she is happy with Moms cut too !! |

| Should I make it that Short under her face .I wasnt going for a look .Her hair grows and grows it was about 2 inches on the ground causing her to trip so I did a little trim that keep going and going to get it even.Now like you said under her face is too long. |

| She is beautiful and has gorgeous hair. I have only one small suggestion that I found worked really well with my silky (she had the same shiny coat). If you use a thinning shears to finish up with it will get rid of the scissor lines, they show so easily on that type of shiny straight coat. You did do a great job though. |

| Oh My! I am so jealous of that hair. Even the hair on my head doesn't shine like that!
