Top Knot Question - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Does the top knot start with the hair right over the eyes? Right now Bailey has a "visor" over his eyes - the groomer would not cut that hair because she said that is the top knot hair and that I have to wait for it to grow....

Is that correct? Poor Bailey can hardly see.....

You'll have to wait for that hair to grow out more if you want to pull it up into a topknot. It'll be long enough before you know it.

hehe, Parker is my first and I learned this one on my own. Every morning we get up, wash our faces, and put our top knot in! At night before bed though I put it down and let him run willlddd!!! lol. In time it will grow faster then you will realize it!

Do you want a top knot? I keep Loki cut short and he doesn't have a topknot. My girl Sammy does. If you don't want one, you don't have to have one! You could also use gel or a barrette to hold it back.
