| Anyone know where I can get less expensive Chris Christensen brushes? I would like to get one but they are so expensive. Anyone know of place where they are a little less expensive than on his website? If not, are there any alternatives that are just, or almost, as good but a lower price?

PLEASE don't shop here ! Doortego - you're trying to help and that's nice .... but there's been some people ripped off by these people - they charge your credit card and don't ship the products - then they ignore emails.....I only know this because it happened to some people who posted about it - I think they finally got a refund but never received what they ordered. BubblPopElectrc...Have you tried Ebay? - or right here...maybe someone will sell you one ? CC has the Gold Series which is a bit expensive but they also sell lesser priced brushes. It's not a law that we need to use these brushes - I'm sure there are good alternatives - maybe try Sally's Beauty Supply ? | |

| Fusion Brush Hi, I emailed Lisa @ Chrissystems for a brush recommendation and she recommended the new brass fusion brush so I ordered that one. I'll let you know if I like it but since I don't have one of the gold series brushes to compare it to, I'm not sure how much help I will be. Donna |

| Wow!! I ordered the Christensen fusion brush yesterday afternoon and I received it this morning! You can't beat that service & I LOVE the brush & so does Little Bit. Lisa was also very helpful and friendly with her recommendations & responses. I was, of course, full of questions. Donna |

| Brush Hi, I keep reading how so many people use brushes for their Yorkshire. I was told by one groomer all I needed was the steel comb I use now on my yorkie. Is it that necessary to use a brush too and what is the purpose for using it besides combing his hair? Is there a special kind of brush to use other than a pin brush? I would appreciate some help on this. Silver Lace |

When I am lazy or my boys are a complete mess, I use my ISINIS brush. It is a good quick detangler that doesn't damage. I never use the pin brush if my boys are dirty.

| I use both a pin brush and comb on my 2. I brush softly at first and if I come across a tangle, I will use the comb to comb it out.

| Hi, Thanks so very much for the responses. I was wondering how I would receive the answers. I was just re-reading the section and then I saw there were answers below my question. If it is not necessary as both you and the groomer said I just will not bother with a brush. Just thought if it would be best for my baby I would do it. Joey and Sherri |

| Mom to Hot Rod Thank you so very much for your answer to help me out. I have used a comb on Joey all his life with me and I kept hearing about using a brush but did not like the look of them so I kept using his comb. It is nice to have someone to ask and get an answer from. I see there is another little Joey out there. That is my little one's name. This site has been good to view and get so much information from. Bye now. Sherri |

| Maximo and Teddy Hi, I just want to thank you for welcoming me to Yorkie Talk and for your helpful information on the brush question. I will just continue on with using the comb only. Would be nice to find one smaller for his face though. He is 3.5 lbs. I was wondering how I was going to find my answer. I just re-read the site again to see more information about the brush and then I saw answers underneath my question and was so tickled. This has been such a nice place to be on. My little one is also Joey. I saw there was another one on here. Bye for now. Sherri |
