| Penelope got a bath today. I've been trying to get her to wear a hair clip, not working... She has such fine hair it is hard to get anything to stay in there, any suggestions? |

| what a sweetheart! I usually wind up putting a band in and then clipping. It gives the clip something to anchor to. Or you can put the clip through the "ponytail" at that point. Good luck.

| There isn't enough hair to band it yet... Thats why I'm trying the little baby clips. Those don't work so well either... I'm sure she'll grow some hair eventually... |

| It looks like your clips are really small, I found some in the baby section at walmart and they seemed to work. I can't tell if yours are that small. Mine are probably about a 1/2 inch wide.

| Mine are pretty tiny, maybe less than a half an inch? And very good clips, but she manages to get them out... I'll look in the baby section, anything bigger and they will fall right out. |

| Cutiepie Penelope! Please be careful w/those tiny clips. Momo has swallowed one of Mimi's clips (he pulled it out of her head! naughty boy...), thankfully, he poop-ed it out. I leave the hair alone when they're pups, just trim the hair around the edges of the eye/nose so it doesn't poke their eyes. Mom to Hotrod has a good suggestion, banding & putting clip in. I use barrete clips, just bend the bottom section so it's tight when you snap it together. Penelope is a doll!

| Thanks all. I am very careful with the clips, don't want my babies to choke. I will just leave it alone till it grows more and she is willing to leave the clips alone. Hopefully soon. |
