When to top knot and what to do until then? I feel so bad for Gracie. Her hair is in her eyes but it's NOT long enough to put in a top knot yet? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! |
1 Attachment(s) Sissy's hair is not long enough for a top knot, but I do a little ponytail (straight up) with a band and when she let's me a bow. I think it looks adorable. |
I put Cali's in a little pony tail too. Even now that it is real long I keep in ponytail not a topknot |
GREAT. I will try a little ponytail. Thanks so much! |
lexi's hair is that length now and i put in in a ponytail now and right in front of the ponytail i put in a plastic barrett.. |
What's the difference between a topknot and a ponytail? |

Use your YT "Search" under topknot and there are lots of threads that show photos and tell you how to do it (since I'm not sure how to attach the link). Your pup needs pretty long hair to do it. |
Kizzys hair is just now long enough on top for me to get a pretty good pony tail. I put a scrunchie around it several times then I put a bow with a barrett up their by clipping it around the scrunchie or in between the scrunchie loops i've made. |
You already got great help - here is a site that shows topknot help with longer hair - http://www.yorkies4me.com/topknots.htm I omit the Double bands - but it gives you a visual on how to do one...I call them both ponytails AND topknots - it's basically the same thing I think Till then - move the 'topknot' closer forward on the head to catch that hair - and just take a little up.....you should be able to gather enough so the hair isn't hanging in the eyes...Also - don't make it too tight - and not too loose....:) You'll get it - just takes practice.:thumbup: |
I've seen a picture on here of someone (sorry, can't recall who it was) who had used those miniature 'claw' clips for human hair on their dog to pull back the bangs. This would be good to hold back hair that isn't quite long enough to get into a topknot or if you can't get her to sit still long enough to put the elastic in for a ponytail. |

I like that site, it gave a better view of how to assemble a "topknot". I agree, I call them the say thing. |
It doesn't say what we give to our dogs to get them to sit still while we do this to them!!!! hee-hee;) Karen |

I would advise using laytex bands and use them myself - but they dont sell them in most stores - they seem easier to remove than rubber. and Janice ...I've used the claw clips - they work better on thicker hair - with Cheri - she twisted hers around and it pulled her hair - I felt so bad - with Chanel - they stayed in all day....I guess it's all a matter of what works for what hair type... |
