Question Yorkie Hairstyles/Cuts with a little rant

All of the posts I saw regarding this were years old, and i'd like something a little updated.

Chewy is 10 weeks old, not only is he my first yorkie ever, he's my first dog EVER! My mother didn't care for dogs, so I decided when I got older and could afford a dog I would get a yorkie because of their personalities. Well here I am 26 years old with my new baby and I just have so many questions!!

One of my favorite things about having a yorkie is my ability to baby him, baths, hair styling, his little rain outfits, etc. However I suppose while brushing him I didn't realize he had mats in his fur, and when I did I decided to look up groomers. Also I live in Louisiana, if you have ever been in south louisiana, the heat and humidity are pretty bad. So i decided a shorter cut, I read reviews of awful places in my area, and refused to entertain the idea. But someone talked me into going to petsmart for his first groom. The woman informed me that he has mats and they'll work them out and also that he's too young to be fully groomed with a cut, which made me wonder why it was going to be $40. But whatever. Until I picked him up. The groomer had shaved him completely. Just a little bitty bit of hair on his head. The rest was shaved so far down he had bald spots! The informed me that they couldnt get the mats out and had to shave him. I was beyond mad.

So i'm currently waiting for chewys hair to grow out as I have found a seemingly better groomer. However aside from the puppy cut, are there any other shorter cuts, designer maybe? Chewy comes to work with me at my family owned business with my husband. He even wears little bitty company shirts! So he has to look spiffy lol. Right now he looks like a schnauzer bred with a chinese crested, hairless dog . Any examples would be greatly appreciated!!

Also, I was looking into buying him some bows online. He's roughly 1-2lbs right now and wasnt sure if anyone knew the size of bands to buy to attach to his bows.

Again, any help would be amazing <3 Thank you! <3

Here are 2 pictures, before and after, you can tell he doesn't much care for it either. The pictures are literally a week apart, the first one he's wearing his boy scout shirt Sooo cute
