Groomers and Cowlicks! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ok here is a question I have been wondering for a while now.
How in the HECK do groomers get our babies to look so good?
I could spend 2 hours on Toby, washing him with CC shampoo, conditioner, and ice on ice, and brushing him with a slicker brush before he dries. He never looks as good as he does after a groomer visit. And he always smells so good after a visit? What is that?

I was also wondering if there is a way to get rid of cowlicks? Toby has a million of them, his hair always looks messy. I asked the groomer to try and do something about it, but it still looks the same, and I am not even for sure there is anything you can do about it.

Thanks in advance,

I know my Jewels alwyas looks fabulous after a groom and whatever I do I cant get that look. I use Chris Christensen spray on Conditioner/detangler to get those cowlicks.

Thanks Chachi, I have always thought your babies were so cute. I would love to see a pic of Jewels, since you are letting her grow out.
I never thought before, but maybe it is where I keep him shorter.????

It could be in the shorter areas but Jewels hair is long on top and she gets them real bad too. I will see if I can take a picture and post it. I always notice a bigger differrence in the grooming for her because her hair is kept longer. I love it and I am so glad I decided to let it grow out.
