I also tried maine and tail conditioner and wasnt impressed with it. So far nothing beats good old pantene and aussie 3 minute miracle for a conditioner. I also put on biogroom conditioner at the same time because it has a nice smell and pantene and aussie doesnt really have a fragrant smell that lasts

The brand is espree and its just a high sheen finishing spray but it really does help to bring back the luster in Chloe's dry coat. Im not sure where to find it on the internet since I got it from my groomer.

I put - Espree grooming - in Google and they sell it several places online including, Pet Edge. Do you use the shampoo or just the finishing spray?

I've tried:
1. Cowboy Magic Rosemary Shampoo & Detangler - ok doesn't smell good
2. Plush Puppy Shampoo & Conditioner & Blow Dry Cream & Seabreeze Oil - ok doesn't smell great
3. Biogroom Shampoo & Conditioner - smells great, stays smelling great, soft and shiney coat
4. Four Paws Magic Coat - ok

Just bought:
Nature's Specialties Coconut Clean Conditioning Shampoo - smells great
This is what the groomer at Sniffany & Co used (months ago) and I really liked it.
This is for dogs & cats

I have always used Petsilk and like it. However I also really enjoyed the samples that Sassypup.net sent me of her line of products she carries. I have also tried the petzlife grooming products and like them a lot too.

Yes this is the product. My groomer loves it and uses the shampoo and conditioner on Chloe and I have been very pleased. I use the finishing spray in between grooming sessions, I knwo get it from a local wholesale pet product warehouse, I didnt realize pet edge sells it.

Im also using the petsilk silk serum when I brush chloe, its very similar to biosilk for humans. I love love love the smell. If you use the silk serum only use small amounts or it will leave the hair oily.

mizzwanned · 04-07-2007, 05:18 PM

I haven't tried much but Petsilk which I really like. I also liked the CC after bath. I also have Ice n Ice and I don't really like it. I didn't notice that it did anything for their hair. I just ordered minksheen and can't wait to try that. As far as human products....I live Biolage!! It leaves their hair really soft and shiny and smells SOOOOO good! I also like Biosilk and Iso....

Which Espree shampoo do you use? I want to try the Silky Show and/or Color Enhancing Shampoo. Do you happen to use either of these?

Thanks!

I didn't like pure paws so much either. Now i'm using Paul Mitchell pet shampoo and conditioner. Not sure about that either. pet silk was pretty good. I wish I could find someting that didn't dry their coat. Jackie

MINKSHEEN!!!

Do not like this suff AT ALL! It made Stedman's hair EXTREMELY poofy and frizzy - just all over the place. Looked like he had a body FULL of "fly away's"

Thank goodness we didn't waste any money on it - we got the free sample

We'll be sticking with Cranberry Fields thanks

We also do not like MinkSheen. Thankfully, we also received the free sample and did not have to spend money to figure out that we do not like it. I really dislike the scent and it was worse the next day even.

BlondieGirl87 · 04-07-2007, 08:35 PM

We've tried a gazillion grooming products I'd say my top favorite ones would have to be CC, John Paul, Furbutter, Petzlife Cranberry Fields, MinkSheen and Petsilk.

MinkSheen is probably one of my very favorites, but I would definetly suggest anyone who is interested in it trying a sample first. We were lucky that it worked out for us as I bought a gallon for the first time trying it!

I think it works better on "true" silk coats, it seems those that have puppies or modified silk coats don't seem to get the great results the rest of us have had. A friend of mine brought her yorkie/chi mix over today and tried it and has similar results to what some people have expierenced here. The hair was all frizzy and a poof mess! I could hardly believe it was the same shampoo I used on my two because it worked completely different. The smell was much stronger too so I'm wondering if each dogs chemisty has to do with how the scent reacts just like fragrances do with humans.

I'd say Furbutter is another product that works better on "true" silk coats, My aunt tried it on her Silky Terrier and it did not work at all

As for product dissapointments, the biggest one for me would have to Cowboy Magic

All that stuff did was make Jaden and Jewelina a greasy mess and I used the tiniest dab! I think that product would work wonderfully for cotton type coats but not for silk coats, at least not for my two anyway....
