Bounce is something I have never heard of.

I think Petco or Petsmart sells it, someone on here mentioned the Bounce and I ordered some. I do love the Yorkie Sheen Detangling Spray,,I use it every day when I do Prissy's combing.

I'm more interested in getting the coat to look nice and stay looking nice for as long as possible than what it smells like. Although the YSS products smell really nice. I like the scent of the essential oils and it is very long lasting. Yes, you do have to use more of most all natural products. The YSS stuff does not have the chemical that many products use to create lather. I think the shampoo works well but I do use more of the conditioner. I guess it really doesn't bother me because I get the results that I'm looking for. Gracie has a long silky coat and if you use something that really strips the coat it makes it very hard to handle and it starts to look kind of fried and fly away. Right now with the WEN on her she looks exceptional but I guess I'll find out soon enough how long that lasts. I bathe her weekly so if it can last for at least 5 days without looking oily I'll be happy.

The only time she looks particularly good is when I used the Coat Handler clarifying shampoo followed by the regular shampoo and then the conditioner. But you're only supposed to need the clarifier every few months.

So, I dunno. If you have something you like, I'd stick with that.

I know many pro handlers swear by Coat Handler, how-ever it doesnt' work well with my Blackies or my Yorkie.

Mike are you really really rinsing well? Okay for Razzle, fine silk coat that means at least 15 minutes after last shampoo.

I use the clarifying every time, because he is in oil in between baths.

I remember very well, when a hugely experienced BRT groomer from Russia, was kind enough to groom my boy before a show. She lectured me for about 3minutes, that I had not washed shampoo out well enough. She showed me different places in his body; and embarassed as I was I had to agree. She gave me a sap to my pride and said well at least he is brushed out to the skin, and you did a fine job of washing his legs and paws............. sigh.

Me too, I am dealing with a puppy coat and just want my Prissy to look her best..yes she is bathed weekly plus her once a month groomer.

I am using double the conditioner of YSS to the shampoo. When I order I order 8 oz of shampoo and 16 oz of conditioner. I do really like it but do feel like I am using a lot of it as well. That is why I posted this thread. Was about to reorder but thought I would look at other options as well.

I guess I kind of expected to use more of an all natural product like the YSS products. If you have ever seen how much of the WEN they expect you to use you will know why I'm happy with what I am using with the YSS! Some of those people stand in the shower pumping 20 and 30 pumps of product on their hair! I agree that you need much more of the Yorkie Shine conditioner than shampoo. I think if I do get some WEN I will just use it as a conditioner and still use the YSS shampoo. If her coat starts separating after 3 days I'll just stay with what I'm using.

I am right there with ya...the choices...oh my! I am leaning toward Minksheen at the moment...natural insect repellent is a big plus if it works, and several reviews say it does. sigh
