I do my kids, they have never cried or whined, but they do "twitch" their skin sometimes like it tickles. They are never happy during the process but run around like crazy afterwards. But it's a happy crazy, not a spaz crazy. I'm not sure if they are showing off their new cuts to the other kids, or if they are just celebrating 'surviving' the shearing.

I've always washed them first as I understand from professional groomers that it helps the hair to "stand up" and gives a more even cut.

I'm not sure I'd use Noxzema though. I'd be concerned about how it might effect them if they licked themself or each other and ingested it.

My plans are to wash and do summer cuts tonight. Yogi is especially woolly...he looks like a Yak. I'll let you know if they cry or act differently then usual.
