Im scared to pick cocoa up from groomer The lady called this morning and i said i dont want her top knot cut but around her eyes and she said do u mean a visor trim and i said is that what most people do when growing them out and she said yes well i said i still want her top knot and i called and checked on her and said what does she liok like and the lady on the phone said really short abouve the eyes. I think im going to cry. Im going to get her now :( |
Ut oh. Hair grows back. |
oh boy...why dont ppl listen?! |
You dont want a visor thats when they cut the topnot. I wish more groomers knew how to cut yorkies. My groomer has cut alot of yorkies and you have to insist she cut off the topnot. She thinks yorkies especially girls look better with the topknot. The hair will grow back and quickly too |
I'm sure your baby will look adorable either way, but it does make me crazy when they don't listen to what we want. Post pictures when you get home! I'm not sure what a "visor cut" is but sounds like it's not something I want either. :( |
When we cute Presley hair shorter, he was pissed!! Everytime I tried to take his picture he would just turn his head and hang it down low. |
that's a shame, I hope it is not as bad as you imagine. what I don't understand though is why you guys don't google yorkie images and then find a dog with a cut you like and take it with you. I think groomers don't know how to cut yorkies because so many people want a different look, unless of course you have a show dog cut. It's like with the ears, I like a really sharp edge on the outer ear with a shaved front and partial shaved back, however a lot of people i know now like the ears long. I have the best groomer, she is just an independent shop owner, I take Lola there at the end of her day and sit there the whole time she cuts her. I bathe her at home so I don't have to be there as long. LOL I approve just about every cut she makes, LOL yes I am a crazy yorkie mix mom. Not all groomers will let you do that but often an independent one will or a mobile one that comes to your home. |
I have seen a cut where they cut a "visor" (a narrow strip of hair) just behind the eyes and leave the rest of the top knot long. Maybe this is what the groomer did. The "visor" supposedly helps 'hold back' the longer hair behind it when the longer top knot hair is not banded. Brody's hair had been cut in a sort of "visor" cut, but his hair is very fine and silky and without enough 'body' to do that so the "visor" just flopped down over his eyes, too. lol I have talked to others who do cut the "visor" AND have a long top knot too and it works for them. With Brody, I saw what was happening and grew out the whole top knot, but had no difficulty getting Brody's groomer to understand what I wanted. For sure, it will grow back and you can choose another style if you want. :D |
I hope you post pics, I bet she will be gorgeous with any kind of cut, plus know that the hair will grow back. |
Aww..I'm sorry! That's so frustrating! One time my Holly and I were trying out a new groomer. I brought a picture of the desired look and described what I wanted. It was just to be cleaned up a little. When I picked her up she was shaved. As in her hair wasn't even an inch long. It was terrible. I mean of course she was adorable as always but it wasn't what I wanted at all. Needless to say, I did not go back. |
A visor cut is when they comb the front hair down like bangs and then cut the hair short like bangs. Personally, I think it looks horrid and the owner has to continually have the bangs trimmed to keep the hair out of the eyes. If I were going to a new groomer I would stand there and make sure they did exactly what I wanted. There are no requirements to be an animal groomer and many of them only do the few hair cuts that they know. Beware of the "visor" cut and beware of groomers in general. Never leave you pet with a groomer you do not know or do not trust. |

To me, taking your dog to the groomer is just like taking yourself to your hairdresser/stylist. You have to be extremely clear & specific about what you want. Exact lengths & details should be given, and nothing beats showing a picture that clearly shows the look you are aiming for. I've been burned in the hair department before and now won't allow anyone near me with scissors unless they have a clear understanding and can describe back to me exactly what it is I want done. To the OP...I hope Cocoa looks as you wanted her to look. If not, the hair will grow back and next time you go to the groomer take pictures of exactly what you want. |
IMO doesn't matter is she look pretty with or without. You a customer and they cut it off after you asked them not to. I would let them and the manager know and never go back. Some places don't care. If all I could find is a bunch of butchers I would learn to cut the hair myself. But I have the best groomer. JMO |
No update? |
No uPdate? |
Just checking in...wondering about you and your baby after the grooming adventure... |
Maybe next time tell them to leave her head alone and just trim the tips of her ears, and the hair around the inside corner of her eyes, thats what I told them on Yumi. That said if you asked them to leave her topknot and they asked if you wanted a visor I might think twice about letting them near her eyes with anything sharp. hopefully a visor meant something different to them than it does to me :) |
I would suggest next time that you bring photos of what you want. You did not want a visor cut, so next time know that :) |
Looking for update. |
update 2 Attachment(s) sorry my phone will not let me post pictures and I updated three times but for some reason they never made it on here. Well I went to pick her up but sadly they had cut them and although not as bad as I pictured her little top knot is really to thin to put back with out looking funny cause its to far back. My baby is still beautiful no matter what but it makes me mad because I specifically gave directions and they did not listen and then called back and I stated three times I want her top know left alone. She had been here before and sadly this is also her vets office, they have a groomer there. I was not happy and I know they knew it but didnt hesitate to charge me. Anyhow here is her pictures before and after... |
Aww, I think she is really cute. The hair will grow back so I wouldn't be too upset. She is just adorable. |
before 3 Attachment(s) before cut |
She looks like a Yorkie with spunk and a real Yorkie attitude! haha I get that look (in pic #1) all the time from my Daisy. Those little toofer pics are too cute. |
Love the pictures! I think she still looks ADORABLE! |
Cocoa is adorable... With and without her top knot. This is why I groom my two myself, because I get what I want :) Don't forget, it's only hair and it does grow back. |
oh lol she is trust me and very very entergetic. I just love her. She eats EVERYTHING though no chew bully stick toy or anything works. Your baby is adorable |
Aww! What a cutie you have there! We got Katie Scarlett's top knot cut off on purpose before our big beach trip. We got all of her cut down actually. I was terrified but I knew she would be rolling around in sand, water, and no telling what else at the beach and I just thought it might be too much to try to handle. But thankfully, it does seem to be growing back pretty quick. She has a nub of a topknot now, but I can't wait for it to grow long again. I hope your baby's hair will grow quick too! |
