My black has more silkier hair and I only brush her hair about twice a week and it stays mat free.
The products that I use are: Paramount Itty Bitty Puppy Kitty Shampoo, Paramount Conditioner, and Paramount Tangle & Mat Combat Conditioning Spray. You can only get them through Shure Pets (I sell them!).
Also, poodle puppies coats do change from the "cotton ball" texture to more silkier as they get older.
I have a great book that describes the entire grooming process and it also has step by step pictures. It has helped me a lot! It is: Poodle Clipping and Grooming: The International Reference.
Hope this helps!

thanks that does help. I was hoping that her hair would change when she gets older she is only like 4 months now. I think Susan decided to keep her hair short but maybe after I tell her this she might change her mind or just keep it shorter not so long.
