| Brushing Hi, I am a new mommy to 2 babies. I brush them daily but I've heard that it's not good to brush them when they are dry. Is this true? If so, what can I use to brusn them on a daily basis? |

| Yes, brushing them with dry hair can cause breakage in their hair and makes their hair more difficult to work with and less nice looking. You can either damp them down with water or I would suggest using a spray in conditioner to put on them before you brush them.

What leave in conditioner would you recommend? Will it leave their hair greasy? Can I use a detangular that you would use for little girls? | |

| I've used Johnson & Johnson No More Tangles for Gypsy and it works good. I don't like to use it everyday so inbetween I use just a spray bottle of water. The very best spray on conditioner is Ice on Ice from CC Systems.

| The only thing that I have found to work is cowboy magic detangle and shine. It works great, detangles instanstly leaving hair really soft and it won't leave their hair greasy at all. You can get it at a horse place I got mine at petsmart the one that has horse items, it is in the horse section. It was intended for horses and humans and works great on yorkies, other members use it as well and they all love it, and it is not expensive at all. The ice on ice CC product works good at first but as you continue to use it, it tends to dry out the hair.
