When I try to bring them up into her topknot, it looks funny and you can clearly see those two strands, which are darker, going up into the topknot. They may be darker because they're permanently stained from tearing.

Is this a common problem? Does anyone have a solution?

I'm always been hesitant to snip them off because my breeder told me DON'T CUT NOSE HAIR. But she's almost 4, and I'm getting tired of it.
Teddy's mustache is always getting into his eyes, and he has a little staining from the tears it produces. The only solution I have found is to constantly comb. I fix his eyes/mustache at least 5 or 6 times a day.
