Ah, see there's another issue that needs clarification. Some people want the top knot but also want to be able to take the TK out and not have the hair fall in the eyes. So with some yorkies they get a TK and a little bit of bangs so that when the TK is out the bangs keep the longer hair from falling in the eyes. Another option is to grow out the hair on the stop and all the hair on the head to form the TK but still thinning down the hair at the bottom of the inverted V. No trimming on top of the nose, only on the sides where the tearing and crusties would be. All of my yorkie clients get the area under their eyes trimmed per owners request. I don't have any natural or standard looking ones. Most owners typically don't keep up with the eye booger situation (or a regular grooming for that matter). LOL
