| Dreadful Bangs!!! What to do... what to do... Ok so lately Jackson's hair has got major bangs going on. I LOVE his groomer, but I almost think every time she maybe cuts 'em a little shorter... or something... but He looks GREAT right after being groomed but after a few weeks, those bangs start to grow down and make him look like the Grouch LoL. I don't recall them ever doing that, even when his hair would grow out longer than I like to keep it in the past, so I looked at a few older pics. Here was from his previous groomer right after a haircut.. he was about 1 in this pic. Img_3715.jpg This is how it looks when I used to let it get a bit longer Img_2608.jpg This is how the new groomer styles it and how it looks right after a groom: IMG_4585.jpg This is how it now looks when it starts to grows out... Bangs galore!! 539642_10151474762060319_1533037612_n.jpg So there's the problem... I really like how he looks right after a groom but then it only takes a few weeks for those bangs to grow out like that. What do you think she is doing different than the other groomer? I much prefer our current one in everything else she does. Should I trim the bangs myself, or attempt to let them grow? I really hate them in his eyes like that last picture... so I am just not sure what to do. We don't do topknots here.

| Well, if you want them to be like the other groom use to do...you will have to let them grow. I agree, the current groomer is cut them in a visor. If you want to stay with the visor look you will have to learn to trim them yourself in between the groomers cut. If you do let them grow out, definitely take the long bang picture to show your current groomer, heck, let her keep it...but be firm you don't want to go through this growing out stage again.

| I'd just get the new groomer to go with the longer ones as it lets his pretty eyes show longer after the groom. Once you do cut those bangs short enough, you do have to keep it up. Either way he looks cute to me so you can't go wrong but just what you prefer.

| If you don't to topknots, then cut'em It's very difficult to keep a topknot clean, non-matted, and not in the way. I put 6-8 latex bands in Fido's hair every day to keep it clean :P and it's hard work.. It's the only way it can grow out, to put so many bands in. I'd cut them yourself, the bangs, if you are not a topknot person.

| I can't tell from the pictures, were Jackson's bangs longer in the past? Is that why they went to the sides rather than creating a visor? I would try combing daily to the sides to try to train the hair back the way it was. I wrestled with the visor look when Max was pup, when I couldn't decide if we were going to do puppy cut or full coat. The visor does make the face look more serious.

Is there some product I could maybe put in his hair - that's not greasy looking, so I can start 'training' it to go to the sides? I guess more like a middle part vs. bangs! LOL. I may have to cut them this week though. We're going away this weekend and I'm not sure I want to deal with his hair and bangs in front of his eyes, he always looks so silly, lol. So I may trim it up one last time and then start growing it out.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Yeah, I agree when the bangs start to grow out it looks a little weird. What if it were cut 1/2 inch or so on the top part of the head? Before I grew out Joey's topknot, I just held the hair where the topknot would go, and just chopped it off, it came out pretty good.

| I love Jackson in the first picture. I bet if you just show your groomer the photo she'll know what to do. That's hilarious. I remember this so well.

| Just comb down his hair/visor part over the front of his face, & whatever is hanging out, cut it. If you want to trim the top, comb up his hair & hold it w/your index & middle finger (his hair will look like a mohawk). Whatever is hanging from the top of your index & 3rd finger & you like the length, cut it.
