I have tried them all :( - YorkieTalk.com Forums

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 01:51 PM

I have tried every band and clip that i can get my hands on. And some are really easy to put in but none will stay in. Sammy's hair is so silky soft that they just slide right out. They may stay in for a minute tops then the second he moves or shakes his head it is out again. I have never seen hair this silky and slick is there anything that will help keep a band or clip in his hair? I have to do something because it is always in his eyes if i don't put it back

How old is Sammy?

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 01:56 PM

6 months old tomorrow

Sorry your having a hard time. I don't know if they will work or if you should try it but have you tried the velcro ones, or maybe using toothpaste like some people do with babies? Just trying to give you some ideas.

Toothpaste?

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 02:08 PM

I have tried the velcro ones actually those are the first ones i tried and they just went floop right on out lol. Hmmmm i never heard of using toothpaste i will have to read up on that one. You know having 7 kids you would think i would have a clue at how to keep his hair back lol.

Sammy still has puppy hair, and that is more difficult to keep bows in. As soon as he starts getting his adult hair, it should be a little easier to keep something in it. One of my little ladies, "Isabella" always manages to get burettes and bows out of her hair ~ she's just a tom boy and doesn't want anything girlie.

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 02:17 PM

That is so funny because out Isabella (Bella) is the saame exact way she is such a tom boy and pouts when we put a dress on her or soemthing in her hair. It is great to know that this is curable so to speak

. So any advice on how to keep his hair out of his eyes until the puppy hair is gone? I just feel so bad for him because it looks so annoying to have all that hair right there in his way.

Yep, you put a small dab on back of the bow and stick it to their hair.

The problem i am having is keeping the hair back out of his eyes though. Here is a pic of hiom laying in front of his bubby Max. See what i mean about his hair in his little eyes.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PIC???????????????

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 02:30 PM

What is happening it won't let me show the picture no matter how i try to do it

LittleMansMomma · 03-27-2008, 02:33 PM

Didn't see your picture though, but you can stick it to their heads as well.

After thinking about it while I was typing out my response...toothpaste probably wouldn't be a good idea

they can knock it off with their paws and lick the toothpaste which would be bad....sorry for even mentioning it...I was just trying to come up with ideas for you though. I'm out of ideas for the moment.

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 02:37 PM

Yeah for some reason my picas aren't coming through

maxs_momma · 03-27-2008, 02:38 PM

Hey i think it finally worked

LittleMansMomma · 03-27-2008, 02:41 PM

He is adorable! I'm sorry I couldn't come up with a better idea. Maybe some of the others will have an idea for you to try.
