Hair knots!!!!! hi everyone, i have a 4 month old little girl her name is SOPHIA and she has a beautiful thick coat of hair, however she is getting knots on her legs...i brush her everyday but she still gets these knots. would anyone know of any product i can buy that helps brush these little knots out????? Also since i have your attention lol would you recommend bully sticks????? thank you :):):) |
Does she get damp and tangle or in weeds? Or does her hair just tangle easily? You might try a little corn starch worked into the hair and first try to separate with your fingers before you try to comb. |
She just gets tangled easily I guess..... She has really thick hair |
I use a metal comb to get the legs and a brush for the top hair. |
Sophia is young, so you might be battling the puppy hair, which tends to tangle more easily. I have had great success bathing with Biogroom Oatmeal shampoo and Biogroom Silk Creme conditioner, then brushing through with this brush:  Amazon.com: Isinis Hair Brush * Made In France:... Most Yorkies here love bully sticks, especially the ones sold by YT member AMD. |
Thank you so much the info was very helpful;-). If u know the yt member with the bully sticks let me know |

I also like a lot of Merrick chews, including their Wishbones. With any chew, supervise your puppy and take the chew away when it gets down to a couple of inches -- potential choking hazard. |

when she changes coat and matures - maybe you'll find the tangles and knots aren't so bad but with thick hair they can be like the cotton of a Q Tip and very hard to pull apart - good luck ! |

BioGroom products have worked really well for knots in Roxy's hair. Tried several before, but BioGroom finally made brushing & combing a dream. |
No Shampoo!! I know this is going to sound crazy, but.. I have found that not using any shampoo for easily tangled hair is best. For two years I bathed my little Yorkie Sophie and everytime she would have dry fly away hair. I tried many many products! My yorkie has long fine hair that can mat up just looking at her :o) So I decided to just use a mild tearless shampoo for food stuff on her face and a little conditioner on her back legs where pee tends to splatter up. Her fur is 100% better. The oils from her skin help keep her fur looking shiny and soft. And no more static flyaway hair. I just use warm water which washes away any dirt. Bathing and brushing is a breeze for us both. :animal36 |
For long thick/wild puppy hair, my friend says she's always found it easier to bathe them, towel almost dry, but still pretty damp, then rub just a TINY amount of conditioner (pea sized) and 1 drop of lavender oil between her hands and apply it to the pup's hair paying attention to the ends and especially the leg area- blow dry and comb- no tangles ever. I just finished giving my li'l girl a bath and her hair was tangle/knot free, shiny and silky smooth. |
My Lexie has sooo much hair she used to get the knot tangles, using a conditioner helps make them easy to undo. I have tried the expensive conditioners... but the one that works the best for her hair is mane and tail. When Lexie was growing out the puppy hair I would use frizzease for humans to remove tangles. I would wet my fingers, take a dab of frizzease between my fingers then apply it to the knot, works great. I've also used it for my grand daughters barbie's hair, makes it look like new hair :D :thumbup: |
