With skin-kids you have to worry about warping their identities, not so with fur-kids, other dogs won't tease him if he's wearing a bow! Start with just a band, and let him get use to that, and gradually he'll get use to wearing bows, but you put the bow over the band, don't use the bow to make the topknot. By the way, some of us call them ninja knots, instead of topknots!

You and your ninja knot! HAHAHAHAHA!

Well Kaji finally has enough hair to wear a ninja knot. I recently purchased a few bows that he wears occasionally. And yes, he rocks the bow even when he's wearing skulls on his clothes. He does wear a hair clip in his hair everyday to keep his hair out of his eyes. Or, now that he has more hair, I use a teeny tiny clasp type clips like these:

That's what Joey wears for daily use; he only wears bows on "special occasions"! I love those little clips.

I keep losing them because I forget where I leave them. Kaji needs his own clip bowl or box.

I keep one box on my nightstand, and one on his grooming table, and one in the bathroom, and they also find their way into my jewelry box! I'm so organized.

My husband won't let me put a bow or top knot on Rhett. Short, "manly" cut only. Luckily, he's stinking cute as is.

I have let Teegy's hair grow around his ears and down the sides of his face but keep the wee bit at the top short, just like my dad's. I call it his Gilly hair. It keeps him handsome and no bows necessary

He has a few vests that are gorgeous from Fairytail Fashions that have bows on them, but that's the extent we will go with bows. I like camo, skulls, and bones, sailor, cowboy types clothing for my boys--bows don't go!! My new boy Reesie (I know-not such a boyish name-but oh well!!) will not wear bows either.

I do however think that they look super cute....once when Snick got groomed, he came home in a bow and he and my husband were not happy. Snick looked at me like "Get this thing out of my hair Momma so I can go outside and mark something!!" LOL!!!!

Happy new year-
Snick & Viv

Lol, I'm w/ ya. Jackson is a manly man with skull and camo clothes too! hhaha. I just don't prefer bows on boys. I don't like them on girls either really though, just a personal preference. But I think they look adorable, it's just not my thing.

Gatsby will not wear a bow he will wear a top knot and leave it in all day but if i put a bow in he will paw it out my sister ties ribbons in his hair for special occasions but day to day he just has a top knot or what i call a "cock doo" because his hair flips over the one side of his face and reminds me of a rooster my sister call this same thing "emo bangs"

I love the braid it is awesome looking and easy to maintain. Also it relieves the skin of the top of the head from the bands.

The only thing i find with the braids is that sometimes they flip over the face, and get into the mouth.

I love bows on both males or females. But my boy only wears bows for showing or on special occasions.
